In accordance with section 351.213 of

the regulations, an interested party as

defined by section 771(9) of the Act may

request in writing that the Secretary

conduct an administrative review. The

Department has changed its

requirements for requesting reviews for

countervailing duty orders. Pursuant to

771(9) of the Act, an interested party

must specify the individual producers

or exporters covered by the order or

suspension agreement for which they

are requesting a view (Interim

Regulations, 60 FR 25130, 25137 (May

11, 1995)). Therefore, for both

antidumping and countervailing duty

reviews, the interested party must

specify for which individual producers

or exporters covered by an antidumping

finding or an antidumping or

countervailing duty order it is

requesting a review, and the requesting

party must state why it desires the

Secretary to review those particular

producers or exporters. If the interested

party intends for the Secretary to review

sales of merchandise by an exporter (or

a producer if that producer also exports

merchandise from other suppliers)

which were produced in more than one

country of origin and each country of

origin is subject to a separate order, then

the interested party must state

specifically, on an order-by-order basis,

which exporter(s) the request is

intended to cover.

Seven copies of the request should be

submitted to the Assistant Secretary for

Import Administration, International

Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S.

Department of Commerce, 14th Street &

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington,

DC 20230. The Department also asks

parties to serve a copy of their requests

to the Office of Antidumping/
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 191 / Thursday, October 2, 1997 / Notices 51629

1The petitioners are Allied Tube & Conduit and

Wheatland Tube Company.

Countervailing Enforcement, Attention:

Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of the main

Commerce Building. Further, in

accordance with section 351.303(f)(1)(i)

of the regulations, a copy of each

request must be served on every party

on the Department’s service list.

The Department will publish in the

Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation

of Administrative Review of

Antidumping or Countervailing Duty

Order, Finding, or Suspended

Investigation’’ for requests received by

the last day of October 1997. If the

Department does not receive, by the last

day of October 1997, a request for

review of entries covered by an order,

finding, or suspended investigation

listed in this notice and for the period

identified above, the Department will

instruct the Customs Service to assess

antidumping or countervailing duties on

those entries at a rate equal to the cash

deposit (or bond for) estimated

antidumping or countervailing duties

required on those entries at the time of

entry, or withdrawal from warehouse,

for consumption and to continue to

collect the cash deposit previously

ordered.

This notice is not required by statute

but is published as a service to the

international trading community.

Dated: September 26, 1997.

Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for

Import Administration.

Notice of Final Results of Antidumping

Duty Administrative Review: Certain

Welded Carbon Steel Pipe and Tube

From Turkey

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: On May 13, 1997, the

Department of Commerce (the

Department) published the preliminary

results of its administrative review of

the antidumping duty order on certain

welded carbon steel pipe and tube from

Turkey. The review covers shipments of

this merchandise to the United States

during the period of review (POR) May

1, 1993, through April 30, 1994.

Based on our analysis of the

comments received, and the correction

of certain ministerial errors, we have

changed the preliminary results. The

final results are listed below in the

section ‘‘Final Results of Review.’’

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 2, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Charles Riggle or Kris Campbell, Office

of AD/CVD Enforcement II, Import

Administration, International Trade

Administration, U.S. Department of

Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution

Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230;

telephone: (202) 482–0650 and (202)

482–3813, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Applicable Statute and Regulations

Unless otherwise indicated, all

citations to the statute and to the

Department’s regulations are references

to the provisions as they existed on

December 31, 1994.

Background

This review covers two

manufacturers/exporters to the United

States of the subject merchandise, the

Borusan Group (Borusan) and

Yucelboru Ihracat Ithalat ve Pazarlama

A.S. (Yucelboru). On May 13, 1997, the

Department published in the Federal

Register the Preliminary Results of

Administrative Review of the

Antidumping Duty Order on Certain

Welded Carbon Steel Pipe and Tube

from Turkey (62 FR 26286) (Preliminary

Results). We received case and rebuttal

briefs from the petitioners 1 and Borusan

on June 19, 1997, and June 26, 1997,

respectively. Yucelboru did not submit

a case or rebuttal brief. On August 1,

1997, we requested comments from

Borusan and the petitioners regarding

how we intended to calculate importerspecific ad valorem assessment rates for

Borusan. Since Yucelboru’s margin in

the preliminary results was de minimis,

we did not request comments from

Yucelboru. On August 5, 1997, we

received comments on the assessment

rate from the petitioners.

The Department has now completed

this administrative review in

accordance with section 751 of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Scope of the Review

Imports covered by this review are

shipments of certain welded carbon

steel pipe and tube products with an

outside diameter of 0.375 inch or more

but not over 16 inches, of any wall

thickness. These products are currently

classifiable under the following

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the

United States (HTSUS) subheadings:

7306.30.10.00, 7306.30.50.25,

7306.30.50.32, 7306.30.50.40,

7306.30.50.55, 7306.30.50.85, and

7306.30.50.90. These products,

commonly referred to in the industry as

standard pipe and tube, are produced to

various American Society for Testing

and Materials (ASTM) specifications,

most notably A–120, A–53 or A–135.

Although the HTSUS subheadings are

provided for convenience and customs

purposes, our written description of the

scope of this proceeding is dispositive.

Comparison of United States Price and

Foreign Market Value

For both companies involved in this

review, we calculated transactionspecific U.S. prices (USP) and compared

them to foreign market values (FMV)

based on either weighted-average home

market prices or constructed values

(CV). For price-to-price comparisons, we

compared identical merchandise, where

possible. Where there were no sales of

identical merchandise in the home

market to compare to U.S. sales, we

made comparisons of similar

merchandise based on the

characteristics listed in the

Department’s antidumping

questionnaire.

Where sales were made in the home

market on a different weight basis from

the U.S. market (e.g., theoretical versus

actual weight), we converted all

quantities to the same weight basis,

using the conversion factors supplied by

the company, before making our fair

value comparisons.

We have determined that Turkey

experienced a high rate of inflation

throughout the POR, as measured by the

wholesale price index (WPI) published

in International Financial Statistics.

(See Comment 1 below). Therefore, in

accordance with our practice, and in

order to avoid the distortions caused by

the effects of this level of inflation on

prices, we did not apply the

Department’s 90/60 day rule if we were

unable to match sales within the same

month. Rather, we resorted to CV as the

basis of FMV. See Notice of Final

Determination of Sales at Less Than

Fair Value: Certain Steel Concrete

Reinforcing Bars from Turkey, 62 FR

9737, 9738 (March 4, 1997) (Rebar from

Turkey).

In accordance with 19 CFR 353.58, we

made comparisons at the same level of

trade, where possible (see Sales

Comment 8 below). For Borusan, we

determined that there was one U.S. level

of trade (i.e., distributor) and three home

market levels of trade: wholesaler/

distributor, retailer, and end-user.

Yucelboru had no level of trade

distinctions in either market.
