Turkey.1 On January 25, 2021, the ITC 

notified Commerce of its final 

determination, pursuant to sections 

705(b)(1)(A)(i) and 705(d) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), that 

an industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of 

subsidized imports of PC strand from 

Turkey.2

Scope of the Order 

The scope of the investigation is PC 

strand from Turkey. For a complete 

description of the scope of this order, 

see the appendix to this notice. 

Countervailing Duty Order 

On January 25, 2021, in accordance 

with sections 705(b)(1)(A)(i) and 705(d) 

of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce 

of its final determination in this 

investigation, in which it found that an 

industry in the United States s 

materially injured by reason of imports 

of PC strand from Turkey.3 As a result, 

and in accordance with sections 

705(c)(2) and 706 of the Act, we are 

issuing this countervailing duty order. 

Because the ITC determined that 

imports of PC strand from Turkey are 

materially injuring a U.S. industry, 

unliquidated entries of such 

merchandise from Turkey, entered or 

withdrawn from warehouse for 

consumption, are subject to the 

assessment of countervailing duties. 

Countervailing duties will be assessed 

on unliquidated entries of PC strand 

from Turkey entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after September 21, 2020, the date of 

publication of the Preliminary 

Determination,4 but will not include 

entries occurring after the expiration of 

the provisional measures period and 

before the publication of the ITC’s final 

injury determination under section 

705(b) of the Act, as further described 

below. 

Suspension of Liquidation and Cash 

Deposits 

In accordance with section 706 of the 

Act, Commerce will direct CBP to 

suspend liquidation of PC strand from 

Turkey, as described in the appendix to 

this notice, effective on the date of 

publication of the ITC’s notice of final 

determination in the Federal Register, 

and to assess, upon further instruction 

by Commerce, pursuant to section 

706(a)(1) of the Act, countervailing 

duties for each entry of the subject 

merchandise in an amount based on the 

net countervailable subsidy rate for the 

subject merchandise. On or after the 

publication of the ITC’s final injury 

determination in the Federal Register, 

CBP must require, at the same time as 

importers would normally deposit 

estimated import duties on this 

merchandise, cash deposits for each 

entry of subject merchandise equal to 

the rates noted below. These 

instructions suspending liquidation will 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Company Subsidy rate 

(percent) 

Celik Halat ve Tel San A.S.5 ............... 158.44 

Guney Celik Hasir ve Demir ............... 30.78 

All Others 6 .......................................... 94.61 

Provisional Measures 

Section 703(d) of the Act states that 

instructions issued pursuant to an 

affirmative preliminary determination 

may not remain in effect for more than 

four months. In the underlying 

investigation, Commerce published the 

Preliminary Determination on 

September 21, 2020. As such, the fourmonth period beginning on the date of 

the publication of the Preliminary 

Determination ended on January 19, 

2021. Furthermore, section 707(b) of the 

Act states that definitive duties are to 

begin on the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final injury determination. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

703(d) of the Act, we will instruct CBP 

to terminate the suspension of 

liquidation and to liquidate, without 

regard to countervailing duties, 

unliquidated entries of PC strand from 

Turkey, entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption, on or after 

January 20, 2021, the date on which the 

provisional measures expired, until and 

through January 28, 2021, the day 

preceding the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final injury determination in the 

Federal Register.7 Suspension of 

liquidation will resume on January 29, 

2021, the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final determination in the Federal 

Register. 

Notifications to Interested Parties 

This notice constitutes the 

countervailing duty order with respect 

to PC strand from Turkey, pursuant to 

section 706(a) of the Act. Interested 

parties can find a list of countervailing 

duty orders currently in effect at http://

Appendix—Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by this order is 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand (PC 

strand), produced from wire of non-stainless, 

non-galvanized steel, which is suitable for 

use in prestressed concrete (both 

pretensioned and post-tensioned) 

applications. The product definition 

encompasses covered and uncovered strand 

and all types, grades, and diameters of PC 

strand. PC strand is normally sold in the 

United States in sizes ranging from 0.25 

inches to 0.70 inches in diameter. PC strand 

made from galvanized wire is only excluded 

from the scope if the zinc and/or zinc oxide 

coating meets or exceeds the 0.40 oz./ft2 

standard set forth in ASTM–A–475. 

The PC strand subject to this order is 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

7312.10.3010 and 7312.10.3012 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United 

States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for convenience 

and customs purposes, the written 

description of the scope of this order is 

dispositive.

Decision on Applicationfor Duty-Free 

Entry of Scientific Instruments 

This is a decision pursuant to Section 

6(c) of the Educational, Scientific, and 

Cultural Materials Importation Act of 

1966 (Pub. L. 89–651, as amended by 

Pub. L. 106–36; 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR 

part 301). On November 25, 2020, the 

Department of Commerce published a 

notice in the Federal Register 

requesting public comment on whether 

instruments of equivalent scientific 

value, for the purposes for which the 

instruments identified in the docket(s) 

below are intended to be used, are being 

manufactured in the United States. See

received no public comments. 

Docket Number: 20–008. Applicant: 

Rice University, 6100 Main Street, 

Houston, TX 77005. Instrument: Signal 

Acquisition ASCI. Manufacturer: 

LiMicro, China. Intended Use: See 

Notice at 85 FR 75302–03, November 

25, 2020. Comments: None received. 

Decision: Approved. We know of no 

instruments of equivalent scientific 

value to the foreign instruments 

described below, for such purposes as 

this is intended to be used, that were 

being manufactured in the United States 

at the time of order. Reasons: According 

to the applicant, the instrument will be 

used to study and investigate in-vivo 

large-scale, high-density, long-term, 

neutral recording to integrate the signal 

acquisition instrument that it plans to 

purchase with its custom developed 

ultra-flexible nano electronic thread 

(NET) microelectrodes as a neural 

recording system to monitor chronic 

neural signals in freely behaving 

animals. The applicant also plans to 

investigate the formation of connections 

between various brain regions and the 

evolution of the neutral connections 

over extended periods. This large-scale, 

high-density, long-term neural recording 

study has the potential to help 

understand the fundamental 

mechanisms of neural circuitry and 

explore treatments for neurological 

conditions. 

Docket Number: 20–009. Applicant: 

University of Chicago, Chemistry 

E005A, 929 E 57th Street (loading 

docket behind 5741 S Drexel Avenue), 

Chicago, IL 60637. Instrument: White 

Dwarf Optimal Parametric Amplifier 

System (OPCPA). Manufacturer: Class 5 

Photonics, GmbH, Germany. Intended 

Use: According to the applicant, the 

instrument will be used to study and 

determine how the local electronic 

structure of nanostructured materials is 

related to their morphology, and 

directly measure the electronic 

transitions at buried interfaces in 

materials, controlling anisotropic charge 

transport via photoinduced strain 

effects, manipulating energy transfer in 

polaritonic systems. The OPCPA is a 

work-horse laser system for 

simultaneous use with multiple 

experiments. The experiments to be 

conducted involve time-resolved 

photoemission microscopy of both 

occupied and unoccupied electronic 

structure of materials, heterodyned 

electronic sum-frequency-generation 

spectroscopy, transient absorption 

spectroscopy.
