SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 7, 2016, and September 22, 2016, the Department 
published, respectively, the preliminary affirmative determinations of 
critical circumstances concerning Brazil and Turkey, and the 
preliminary affirmative determinations of sales at LTFV in the 
investigations of CTL Plate from Brazil, South Africa, and Turkey.\1\ 
We invited interested parties to comment on these preliminary 
determinations. We only received comments regarding the scope of these 
investigations. Additionally, no interested party requested a hearing.

Scope of the Investigations

    The products covered by these investigations are CTL plate. For a 
full description of the scope of the Brazil and Turkey investigations, 
see the ``Scope of the Investigations: Brazil and Turkey,'' in Appendix 
I of this notice. For a full description of the scope of the South 
Africa investigation, see the ``Scope of the Investigation: South 
Africa,'' in Appendix II of this notice.
    Prior to the Preliminary LTFV Determinations, the Department issued 
a Preliminary Scope Decision Memorandum.\2\ Since the Preliminary LTFV 
Determinations, the Department issued an Additional Preliminary Scope 
Decision Memorandum, which referenced several changes to the scope.\3\ 
Subsequently, various interested parties submitted case \4\ and 
rebuttal \5\ briefs concerning scope. The Department reviewed these 
briefs, considered the arguments therein, and is not making any 
additional changes to the scope of the investigations. For further 
discussion, see the Department's Final Scope Decision Memorandum.\6\ 
The Department is modifying the scope language as it appeared in the 
Preliminary LTFV Determinations to provide a precise reference, where 
applicable, to the existing hot-rolled flat-rolled steel antidumping 
duty orders. The scope in Appendix I and Appendix II reflects, 
respectively, the final scope language.

Verification

    Because the mandatory respondents in these investigations did not 
provide the information requested, the Department did not conduct 
verifications.

Analysis of Comments Received, Changes Since the Preliminary 
Determinations, and Use of Adverse Facts Available

    As noted above, we received no comments pertaining to the 
Preliminary LTFV Determinations. As stated in the Preliminary LTFV 
Determinations, we found that the mandatory respondents in these 
investigations, Companhia Siderurgica Nacional (CSN) and Usinas 
Siderurgicas de Minas Gerais SA (Usiminas) (Brazil), Evraz Highveld 
Steel and Vanadium Corp. (Evraz Highveld) (South Africa) and 
Ere[gbreve]li Demir ve [Ccedil]elik Fabrikalari T.A.[Scedil]. (Erdemir) 
(Turkey), did not cooperate to the best of their abilities and, 
accordingly, we determined it appropriate to apply facts otherwise 
available with adverse inferences, in accordance with section 776(a)-
(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\7\ For the 
purposes of the final determinations, the Department has made no 
changes to the Preliminary LTFV Determinations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Preliminary LTFV Determinations, 81 FR at 65338.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Affirmative Determinations of Critical Circumstances

    For Brazil, in accordance with section 733(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.206, we preliminarily found that critical circumstances exist with 
respect to the mandatory respondents, CSN and Usiminas, and the ``All-
Others'' group.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Preliminary Critical Circumstances Determinations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For Turkey, in accordance with section 733(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.206, we preliminarily found that critical circumstances exist with 
respect to the mandatory respondent, Erdemir, and the ``All-Others'' 
group.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As stated above, the Department did not receive any comments 
concerning the preliminary determinations. Thus, for these final 
determinations, we continue to find that, in accordance with section 
735(a)(3) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206, critical circumstances exist 
for imports from all producers and exporters of CTL plate from Brazil 
and Turkey.

[[Page 87545]]

All-Others Rate

    As discussed in the Preliminary LTFV Determinations, the Department 
based the selection of the ``All-Others'' rates in Brazil, South 
Africa, and Turkey, on the Petitions,\10\ in accordance with section 
735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. We made no changes to the selection of these 
rates for these final determinations.\11\

Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation

    In accordance with section 735(c)(4)(A) of the Act, for these final 
determinations, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to continue to suspend liquidation of all entries of CTL Plate 
from Brazil and Turkey, as described in Appendix I of this notice, 
which were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or 
after June 24, 2016 (90 days prior to the date of publication of the 
Preliminary LTFV Determinations) because we continue to find that 
critical circumstances exist with regard to imports from all producers 
and exporters of CTL Plate from Brazil and Turkey.
    In accordance with section 735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, for this final 
determination, the Department will instruct CBP to continue to suspend 
liquidation of all entries of CTL Plate from South Africa, as described 
in Appendix II of this notice, which were entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after September 22, 2016, the date of 
publication of the preliminary determination of the South Africa 
investigation in the Federal Register.
    With respect to Brazil, pursuant to pursuant to section 
735(c)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to 
the weighted-average amount by which normal value exceeds U.S. price, 
as follows: (1) For CSN and Usiminas, the cash deposit rate will be 
equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margin which the 
Department determined in this final determination; (2) if the exporter 
is not a firm identified in this investigation but the producer is, 
then the cash deposit rate will be equal to the estimated weighted-
average dumping margin established for the producer of the subject 
merchandise; (3) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or 
exporters will be 74.52 percent, as discussed in the ``All Others 
Rate'' section, above.
    With respect to South Africa, pursuant to section 735(c)(1)(B)(ii) 
of the Act, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to the weighted-
average amount by which normal value exceeds U.S. price, as follows: 
(1) For Evraz Highveld, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the 
estimated weighted-average dumping margin which the Department 
determined in this final determination; (2) if the exporter is not a 
firm identified in this investigation but the producer is, then the 
cash deposit rate will be equal to the estimated weighted-average 
dumping margin established for the producer of the subject merchandise; 
(3) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or exporters will be 
87.72 percent, as discussed in the ``All Others Rate'' section, above.
    With respect to Turkey, pursuant to section 735(c)(1)(B)(ii) of the 
Act, CBP shall require a cash deposit equal to the weighted-average 
amount by which normal value exceeds U.S. price, as follows: (1) For 
Erdemir, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the estimated weighted-
average dumping margin which the Department determined in this final 
determination; (2) if the exporter is not a firm identified in this 
investigation but the producer is, then the cash deposit rate will be 
equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margin established for 
the producer of the subject merchandise; (3) the cash deposit rate for 
all other producers or exporters will be 42.02 percent, as discussed in 
the ``All Others Rate'' section, above.
    These instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect 
until further notice.

Disclosure

    The weighted-average dumping margins assigned to the mandatory 
respondents in these investigations in the Preliminary LTFV 
Determinations were based on adverse facts available. As we made no 
changes to these margins since the Preliminary LTFV Determinations, no 
disclosure of calculations is necessary for these final determinations.

International Trade Commission Notification

    In accordance with section 735(d) of the Act, we will notify the 
International Trade Commission (ITC) of the final affirmative 
determinations of sales at LTFV and final affirmative determinations of 
critical circumstances for Brazil and Turkey. Because the final 
determinations in these proceedings are affirmative, the ITC will make 
its final determinations as to whether the domestic industry in the 
United States is materially injured, or threatened with material 
injury, by reason of imports of CTL Plate from Brazil, South Africa, 
and Turkey, in accordance with section 735(b)(2) of the Act. If the ITC 
determines that such injury does not exist, these proceedings will be 
terminated and all securities posted will be refunded or canceled. If 
the ITC determines that such injury exists, the Department will issue 
antidumping duty orders directing CBP to assess, upon further 
instruction by the Department, antidumping duties on all imports of the 
subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for 
consumption on or after the effective date of the suspension of 
liquidation.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance

[[Page 87546]]

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written notification of the return or 
destruction of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective 
order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and 
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
    These determinations are issued and published in accordance with 
sections 735(d) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(c).

    Dated: November 29, 2016.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.

Appendix I--Scope of the Investigations: Brazil and Turkey

    The products covered by these investigations are certain carbon 
and alloy steel hot-rolled or forged flat plate products not in 
coils, whether or not painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or 
other non-metallic substances (cut-to-length plate). Subject 
merchandise includes plate that is produced by being cut-to-length 
from coils or from other discrete length plate and plate that is 
rolled or forged into a discrete length. The products covered 
include (1) Universal mill plates (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, 
which are not in coils and without patterns in relief), and (2) hot-
rolled or forged flat steel products of a thickness of 4.75 mm or 
more and of a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice 
the thickness, and which are not in coils, whether or not with 
patterns in relief. The covered products described above may be 
rectangular, square, circular or other shapes and include products 
of either rectangular or non-rectangular cross-section where such 
non-rectangular cross-section is achieved subsequent to the rolling 
process, i.e., products which have been ``worked after rolling'' 
(e.g., products which have been beveled or rounded at the edges).
    For purposes of the width and thickness requirements referenced 
above, the following rules apply:
    (1) Except where otherwise stated where the nominal and actual 
thickness or width measurements vary, a product from a given subject 
country is within the scope if application of either the nominal or 
actual measurement would place it within the scope based on the 
definitions set forth above unless the product is already covered by 
an order existing on that specific country (i.e., Certain Hot-Rolled 
Steel Flat Products From Australia, Brazil, Japan, the Republic of 
Korea, the Netherlands, the Republic of Turkey, and the United 
Kingdom: Amended Final Affirmative Antidumping Determinations for 
Australia, the Republic of Korea, and the Republic of Turkey and 
Antidumping Duty Orders, 81 FR 67962 (October 3, 2016)); and
    (2) where the width and thickness vary for a specific product 
(e.g., the thickness of certain products with non-rectangular cross-
section, the width of certain products with non-rectangular shape, 
etc.), the measurement at its greatest width or thickness applies.
    Steel products included in the scope of the investigations are 
products in which:
    (1) Iron predominates, by weight, over each of the other 
contained elements; and
    (2) the carbon content is 2 percent or less by weight.
    Subject merchandise includes cut-to-length plate that has been 
further processed in the subject country or a third country, 
including but not limited to pickling, oiling, levelling, annealing, 
tempering, temper rolling, skin passing, painting, varnishing, 
trimming, cutting, punching, beveling, and/or slitting, or any other 
processing that would not otherwise remove the merchandise from the 
scope of these investigations if performed in the country of 
manufacture of the cut-to-length plate.
    All products that meet the written physical description, are 
within the scope of these investigations unless specifically 
excluded or covered by the scope of an existing order. The following 
products are outside of, and/or specifically excluded from, the 
scope of these investigations:
    (1) Products clad, plated, or coated with metal, whether or not 
painted, varnished or coated with plastic or other non-metallic 
substances;
    (2) military grade armor plate certified to one of the following 
specifications or to a specification that references and 
incorporates one of the following specifications:

 T9074-BD-GIB-010/0300 Grade HSLA100, and
 T9074-BD-GIB-010/0300 Mod. Grade HSLA115,

except that any cut-to-length plate certified to one of the above 
specifications, or to a military grade armor specification that 
references and incorporates one of the above specifications, will 
not be excluded from the scope if it is also dual- or multiple-
certified to any other non-armor specification that otherwise would 
fall within the scope of this order;

    (3) stainless steel plate, containing 10.5 percent or more of 
chromium by weight and not more than 1.2 percent of carbon by

Appendix II--Scope of the Investigation: South Africa

    The products covered by this investigation are certain carbon 
and alloy steel hot-rolled or forged flat plate products not in 
coils, whether or not painted, varnished, or coated with plastics or 
other non-metallic substances (cut-to-length plate). Subject 
merchandise includes plate that is produced by being cut-to-length 
from coils or from other discrete length plate and plate that is 
rolled or forged into a discrete length. The products covered 
include (1) Universal mill plates (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, 
which are not in coils and without patterns in relief), and (2) hot-
rolled or forged flat steel products of a thickness of 4.75 mm or 
more and of a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice 
the thickness, and which are not in coils, whether or not with 
patterns in relief. The covered products described above may be 
rectangular, square, circular or other shapes and include products 
of either rectangular or non-rectangular cross-section where such 
non-rectangular cross-section is achieved subsequent to the rolling 
process, i.e., products which have been ``worked after rolling'', 
(e.g., products which have been beveled or rounded at the edges).
    For purposes of the width and thickness requirements referenced 
above, the following rules apply:
    (1) Except where otherwise stated where the nominal and actual 
thickness or width measurements vary, a product from a given subject 
country is within the scope if application of either the nominal or 
actual measurement would place it within the scope based on the 
definitions set forth above; and
    (2) where the width and thickness vary for a specific product 
(e.g., the thickness of certain products with non-rectangular cross-
section, the width of certain products with non-rectangular shape, 
etc.), the measurement at its greatest width or thickness applies.
    Steel products included in the scope of the investigation are 
products in which: (1) Iron predominates, by weight, over each of 
the other contained elements; and (2) the carbon content is 2 
percent or less by weight.
    Subject merchandise includes cut-to-length plate that has been 
further processed in the subject country or a third country, 
including but not limited to pickling, oiling, levelling, annealing, 
tempering, temper rolling, skin passing, painting, varnishing, 
trimming, cutting, punching, beveling, and/or slitting, or any other 
processing that would not otherwise remove the merchandise from the 
scope of this investigation if performed in the country of 
manufacture of the cut-to-length plate.
    All products that meet the written physical description, are 
within the scope of this investigation unless specifically excluded 
or covered by the scope of an existing order. The following products 
are outside of, and/or specifically excluded from, the scope of this 
investigation:
    (1) Products clad, plated, or coated with metal, whether or not 
painted, varnished or coated with plastic or other non-metallic 
substances;

except that any cut-to-length plate certified to one of the above 
specifications, or to a military grade armor specification that 
references and incorporates one of the above specifications, will 
not be excluded from the scope if it is also dual- or multiple-
certified to any other non-armor specification that otherwise would 
fall within the scope of this order;
