Background

    On February 12, 2018, Commerce published its Preliminary Results of 
the review of the antidumping duty order on LWRPT from Turkey covering 
the period of review (POR) May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017.\1\ No

Preliminary Results and Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review; 2016-2017, 83 FR 5987 (February 12, 2018) 
(Preliminary Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by the antidumping order is certain welded 
carbon quality light-walled steel pipe and tube, of rectangular 
(including square) cross section, having a wall thickness of less than 
4 millimeters. The merchandise subject to the order is classified in 
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States at subheadings 
7306.61.50.00 and 7306.61.70.60.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ For a complete description of the scope of the order see 
``Decision Memorandum for Preliminary Results of the 2016-2017 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Light-Walled Rectangular 
Pipe and Tube from Turkey,'' dated February 5, 2018 (Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Analysis

    In the Preliminary Results, we determined that Agir Haddecilik A.S. 
(Agir) did not make sales of subject merchandise at prices below normal 
value during the period May 1, 2016, through April 30, 2017.\3\ As no 
parties commented on the Preliminary Results, we are adopting the 
decisions in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum in these final results 
of review. For additional details, see the Preliminary Decision 
Memorandum, which is a public document and is on file electronically 
via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Centralized Electronic Service System (``ACCESS''). ACCESS is available 
to registered users at http://access.trade.gov and in the Central 
Records Unit, room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce building. 
In addition, a complete version of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum 
can be accessed directly on the internet at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. The signed and the electronic 
versions of the Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in 
content.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Results of Review

    As a result of this review, Commerce determines that the following 
weighted-average dumping margin exists for Agir for the period May 1, 
2016, through April 30, 2017:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                               Weighted-
                                                                average
                    Manufacturer/exporter                       margin
                                                               (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agir Haddecilik A.S.........................................        0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.212(b), we have determined, and U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on 
all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the 
final results of this review.\4\ We intend to issue assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date of this notice 
of the final results of this review. Because we calculated a weighted-
average dumping margin of zero for Agir, we will instruct CBP to 
liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. 
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice, for 
entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by Agir for 
which it did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United 
States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at the all-
others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) 
involved in the transaction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ In these final results, Commerce applied the assessment rate 
calculation method adopted in Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation 
of the Weighted-Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in 
Certain Antidumping Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 
(February 14, 2012) (Final Modification for Reviews).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice of the 
final results of this review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 
the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for Agir will be equal to the 
weighted-average dumping margin established in the final results of 
this review; (2) for merchandise exported by manufacturers or exporters 
not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of the 
proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-
specific rate published for the most recently completed segment of this 
proceeding in which the manufacturer or exporter participated; (3) if 
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or 
the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the

[[Page 24279]]

manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established in 
the most recently completed segment of the proceeding for the 
manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all 
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 27.04 percent ad 
valorem, the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value 
investigation.\5\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.

Value: Light-Walled Rectangular Pipe and Tube from Turkey, 73 FR 
19814 (April 11, 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the 
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/destruction of 
APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby 
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO 
is a violation that is subject to sanction.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213 and 19 CFR 
351.221(b)(5).

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations, performing the non-exclusive functions and duties of the
