SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    Commerce is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on certain hot-rolled steel flat products (hot-rolled steel) 
from the Republic of Turkey (Turkey). The notice of initiation of this 
administrative review was published on December 7, 2017.\1\ This review 
covers 11 producers or exporters of the subject merchandise. The POR is 
March 22, 2016, through September 30, 2017. Commerce selected Colakoglu 
as the mandatory respondent in this administrative review.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 57705 (December 7, 2017).
    \2\ See Memorandum, ``Respondent Selection for the 
Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order of Certain Hot-
Rolled Steel Flat Products from Turkey,'' dated January 16, 2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by the order is certain hot-rolled steel 
flat products. For a complete description of the scope of the order, 
see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Memorandum, ``Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary 
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review: Certain Hot-
Rolled Steel Flat Products from the Republic of Turkey; 2016-2017,'' 
dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice 
(Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this review in accordance with section 
751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Export 
price and constructed export price are calculated in accordance with 
section 772 of the Act. NV is calculated in accordance with section 773 
of the Act.
    For a full description of the methodology underlying our 
conclusions, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum. The Preliminary 
Decision Memorandum 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 it is available to all 
parties 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 at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed and electronic versions of the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum are identical in content. A list of the 
topics discussed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum is attached as 
the Appendix to this notice.

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    Among the companies under review, three companies, Gazi Metal 
Mamulleri Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. (Gazi), Toscelik Profile and Sheet 
Ind. Co. (a.k.a. Toscelik Profil ve Sac endustrisi A.S.) and Tosyali 
Holding A.S. (collectively, Toscelik), and Eregli Demir ve Celik 
Fabrikalari T.A.S. and Iskenderun Iron and Steel Works Ltd. (a.k.a. 
Iskenderun Demir ve Celik A.S.) (collectively, Erdemir), each properly 
filed statements reporting that they made no shipments of subject 
merchandise to the United States during the POR. Based on the 
certifications submitted and our analysis of Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) information, we preliminarily determine that Gazi, 
Toscelik, and Erdemir had no shipments during the POR.\4\ Consistent 
with its practice, Commerce finds that it is not appropriate to 
preliminarily rescind the review with respect to these companies but, 
rather, to complete the review and issue appropriate instructions to 
CBP based on the final results of this review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Results of the Review

    As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine the 
following weighted-average dumping margins for the period March 22, 
2016, through September 30, 2017:

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

Assessment Rates

    Upon completion of the administrative review, Commerce shall 
determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries.
    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-specific 
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount 
of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value 
of the sales. Where the mandatory respondents did not report entered 
value, we calculated the entered value in order to calculate the ad 
valorem assessment rate. Where either the respondent's weighted-average 
dumping margin is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 
351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific rate is zero or de minimis, we 
will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard 
to antidumping duties.
    For the companies which were not selected for individual review, we 
will assign an assessment rate based on the weighted-average dumping 
margins calculated for the mandatory respondents. The final results of 
this review shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties 
on entries of merchandise covered by the final results of this review 
and for future deposits of estimated antidumping duties, where 
applicable.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We intend to issue liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days after 
publication of the final results of this review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the 
final results of this administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for each specific 
company listed above will be that established in the final results of 
this review, except if the rate is less than 0.50 percent and, 
therefore, de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in 
which case the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) for previously 
investigated companies not participating in this review, the cash 
deposit will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the 
most recently completed segment of this proceeding in which the company 
participated; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, 
or the underlying investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash 
deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent segment 
for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash

[[Page 56807]]

deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to 
be 6.41 percent, the all-others rate established in the underlying 
investigation.\6\ These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: November 1, 2018.
James Maeder,
Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
