Certain Hot-Rolled Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel Products From 
the Russian Federation: Continuation of Antidumping Duty Order

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: As a result of the determinations by the Department of 
Commerce (the Department) and the U.S. International Trade Commission 
(USITC) that revocation of the antidumping duty order on certain hot-
rolled flat-rolled carbon-quality steel products (hot-rolled steel) 
from the Russian Federation (Russia) would likely lead to continuation 
or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the 
United States, the Department is publishing a notice of continuation of 
this antidumping duty order.

DATES: Effective date: October 20, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On December 24, 2014, the Department published the antidumping duty 
order on hot-rolled steel from Russia.\1\ On May 2, 2016, the 
Department initiated a sunset review of the Russia Order pursuant to 
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Termination of the Suspension Agreement on Hot-Rolled 
Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel Products From the Russian 
Federation, Rescission of 2013-2014 Administrative Review, and 
Issuance of Antidumping Duty Order, 79 FR 77455 (December 24, 2014) 
(Russia Order).
    \2\ See Initiation of Five-Year (``Sunset'') Review, 81 FR 26209 
(May 2, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a result of this sunset review, the Department determined that 
revocation of the Russia Order would likely lead to continuation or 
recurrence of dumping and, therefore, notified the USITC of the 
magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail should the order 
be revoked.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Certain Hot-Rolled Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel 
Products From the Russian Federation: Final Results of the Expedited 
Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order, 81 FR 62094 (September 
8, 2016) and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 5, 2016, the USITC published its determination, pursuant 
to section 751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the Russia Order would 
be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to 
an industry in the United Sates within a reasonably foreseeable 
time.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Investigation No. 731-TA-808 (Third Review), 81 FR 69079 
(October 5, 2016), and USITC Publication 4639 (September 2016), 
entitled Hot-Rolled Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel Products from 
Russia: Investigation No. 731-TA-808 (Third Review).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    For the purposes of this order, ``hot-rolled steel'' means certain 
hot-rolled flat-rolled carbon-quality steel products of a rectangular 
shape, of a width of 0.5 inch or greater, neither clad, plated, nor 
coated with metal and whether or not painted, varnished, or coated with 
plastics or other non-metallic substances, in coils (whether or not in 
successively superimposed layers) regardless of thickness, and in 
straight lengths, of a thickness less than 4.75 mm and of a width 
measuring at least 10 times the thickness.
    Universal mill plate (i.e., flat-rolled products rolled on four 
faces or in a closed box pass, of a width exceeding 150 mm but not 
exceeding 1250 mm and of a thickness of not less than 4 mm, not in 
coils and without patterns in relief) of a thickness not less than 4.0 
mm is not included within the scope of this order.
    Specifically included in this scope are vacuum degassed, fully 
stabilized (commonly referred to as interstitial-free (IF)) steels, 
high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels, and the substrate for motor 
lamination steels. IF steels are recognized as low carbon steels with 
micro-alloying levels of elements such as titanium and/or niobium added 
to stabilize carbon and nitrogen elements. HSLA steels are recognized 
as steels with micro-alloying levels of elements such as chromium, 
copper, niobium, titanium, vanadium, and molybdenum. The substrate for 
motor lamination steels contains micro-alloying levels of elements such 
as silicon and aluminum.
    Steel products to be included in the scope of this order, 
regardless of Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 
definitions, are products in which: (1) Iron predominates, by weight, 
over each of the other contained elements; (2) the carbon content is 2 
percent or less, by weight; and (3) none of the elements listed below 
exceeds the quantity, by weight, respectively indicated: 1.80 percent 
of manganese, or 1.50 percent of silicon, or 1.00 percent of copper, or 
0.50 percent of aluminum, or 1.25 percent of chromium, or 0.30 percent 
of cobalt, or 0.40 percent of lead, or 1.25 percent of nickel, or 0.30 
percent of tungsten, or 0.012 percent of boron, or 0.10 percent of 
molybdenum, or 0.10 percent of niobium, or 0.41 percent of titanium, or 
0.15 percent of vanadium, or 0.15 percent of zirconium.
    All products that meet the physical and chemical description 
provided above are within the scope of this order unless otherwise 
excluded. The following products, by way of example, are outside and/or 
specifically excluded from the scope of this order:

--Alloy hot-rolled steel products in which at least one of the chemical 
elements exceeds those listed above (including e.g., ASTM 
specifications A543, A387, A514, A517, and A506).

Continuation of the Order

    As a result of the determinations by the Department and the USITC 
that revocation of the Russia Order would be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an 
industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the 
Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the Russia Order.
    U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect cash 
deposits of estimated antidumping duties at the rates in effect at the 
time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise. The effective 
date of the continuation of this order will be the effective date 
listed

above. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act, the Department intends 
to initiate the next sunset review of this order not later than 30 days 
prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of continuation.
    This five-year (sunset) review and this notice are in accordance 
with sections 751(c) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).
