than one mile apart and less than 24

miles apart.

Rico and the Island Areas having legal

boundaries, names, and descriptions.

depending on the state and type of

MCD. In some states, some or all of the

incorporated places also constitute

MCDs.

that is not visible on the ground such as

a city or county boundary through

space, a property line, a short line-ofsight extension of a road, or a point-topoint line of sight.

Special place—A specific location

requiring special enumeration because

the location includes people not in

households or the area includes special

land use. Special places include

facilities with resident populations,

such as correctional institutions,

military installations, college campuses,

workers’ dormitories, hospitals, nursing

homes, group homes, and land-use areas

such as national parks. A special place

includes the entire facility, including

nonresidential areas and staff housing

units, as well as all group quarters

population.

waters, see above.

Visible feature—A map feature that

one can see on the ground such as a

road, railroad track, above-ground

transmission line, stream, shoreline,

fence, sharply defined mountain ridge,

or cliff. A nonstandard visible feature is

a feature that may not be clearly defined

on the ground (such as a ridge), may be

seasonal (such as an intermittent

stream), or may be relatively

impermanent (such as a fence). The

Census Bureau generally requests

verification that nonstandard features

pose no problem in their location during

field work.

pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act

of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341). Consequently,

the United States Department of

Commerce has initiated separate

investigations to determine whether

increased imports into the United States

of articles like or directly competitive

with those produced by each firm

contributed importantly to total or

partial separation of the firm’s workers,

or threat thereof, and to a decrease in

sales or production of each petitioning

SUMMARY: On May 13, 1997, the Court

of International Trade affirmed the

Department of Commerce’s final remand

results in Rautaruukki Oy v. United

States, Consol. Court No. 93–09–00560–

AD, arising out of the Department’s final

determination of sales at less than fair

value in the antidumping investigation

of certain cut-to-length carbon steel

plate from Finland. As there is now a

final and conclusive court decision in

this action, we are amending our final

determination of sales at less than fair

value and we will instruct the U.S.

Customs Service to change the

appropriate cash deposit rate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On July 9, 1993, the Department of

Commerce (the Department) published

its final determination in its

investigation of sales at less than fair

value (LTFV) of certain cut-to-length

carbon steel plate from Finland (58 FR

37122). On August 19, 1993, the

Department published an amended final

determination (58 FR 44165).

Subsequently, respondent

Rautauruukki Oy and petitioner Inland

Steel Industries, Inc, and a number of

other interested parties, filed lawsuits

with the Court of International Trade

(the Court) challenging the final

determination. On March 31, 1995, the

Court remanded the case to the

Department and ordered the Department

to recalculate the value added tax (VAT)

according to the Department’s new

methodology. See Rautaruukki Oy v.

United States, Slip Op. 95–56, (CIT,

March 31, 1995). Specifically, the Court

ordered that the Department revise its

dumping margin calculation by

multiplying the Finnish VAT rate by

United States price (USP) and then

increasing USP by the resulting amount.

On remand, in accordance with

Federal-Mogul Corp. and The

Torrington Co. v. United States, Slip Op.

93–194 (CIT, October 7, 1993), the

Department recalculated the margins in

this case by applying the foreign market

tax rate to the price of the United States

merchandise at the same point in the

chain of commerce that the foreign

market tax was applied to foreign

market sales.

On May 13, 1997, the Court affirmed

the final remand results. See

Rautaruukki Oy v. United States, Slip

Op. 97–56 (CIT, May 13, 1997). As there

is now a final and conclusive court
