SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 31, 2018, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

AD order and CVD order on soil pipe 

fittings from China.1 On July 3, 2023, 

the ITC instituted 2 and Commerce 

initiated 3 the first five-year (sunset) 

reviews of the Orders, pursuant to 

sections 751(c) and 752 of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (the Act). As a 

result of its reviews, Commerce 

determined that revocation of the 

Orders would likely lead to a 

continuation or recurrence of dumping 

and countervailable subsidies, and 

therefore, notified the ITC of the 

magnitude of the margins of dumping 

and subsidy rates likely to prevail 

should the Orders be revoked.4

On December 28, 2023, the ITC 

published its determination, pursuant to 

sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, 

that revocation of the Orders would 

likely lead to a continuation or 

recurrence of material injury to an 

industry in the United States within a 

reasonably foreseeable time.5

Scope of the Orders 

The merchandise covered by these 

Orders is cast iron soil pipe fittings, 

finished and unfinished, regardless of 

industry or proprietary specifications, 

and regardless of size. Cast iron soil 

pipe fittings are nonmalleable iron 

castings of various designs and sizes, 

including, but not limited to, bends, 

tees, wyes, traps, drains, and other 

common or special fittings, with or 

without side inlets. 

Cast iron soil pipe fittings are 

classified into two major types—hubless 

and hub and spigot. Hubless cast iron 

soil pipe fittings are manufactured 

without a hub, generally in compliance 

with Cast Iron Soil Pipe Institute (CISPI) 

specification 301 and/or American 

Society for Testing and Materials 

(ASTM) specification A888. Hub and 

spigot pipe fittings have hubs into 

which the spigot (plain end) of the pipe 

or fitting is inserted. Cast iron soil pipe 

fittings are generally distinguished from 

other types of nonmalleable cast iron 

fittings by the manner in which they are 

connected to cast iron soil pipe and 

other fittings. 

Excluded from the scope are all drain 

bodies. Drain bodies are normally 

classified in subheading 7326.90.86.88 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS). 

The subject imports are normally 

classified in subheading 7307.11.0045 of 

the HTSUS: Cast fittings of 

nonmalleable cast iron for cast iron soil 

pipe. They may also be entered under 

HTSUS 7324.29.0000 and 7307.92.3010. 

The HTSUS subheadings and 

specifications are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes 

only; the written description of the 

scope of these Orders is dispositive. 

Continuation of the Orders 

As a result of the determinations by 

Commerce and the ITC that revocation 

of the Orders would likely lead to a 

continuation or recurrence of dumping, 

countervailable subsidies, and material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 

751(d)(2) of the Act, Commerce hereby 

orders the continuation of the Orders. 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection will 

continue to collect AD and CVD cash 

deposits at the rates in effect at the time 

of entry for all imports of subject 

merchandise. 

The effective date of the continuation 

of the Orders will be December 28, 

2023.6 Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of 

the Act, Commerce intends to initiate 

the next five-year reviews of these 

Orders not later than 30 days prior to 

the fifth anniversary of the effective date 

of continuation. 

Administrative Protective Order (APO) 

This notice also serves as a final 

reminder to parties subject to an APO of 

their responsibility concerning the 

return or destruction of proprietary 

information disclosed under APO in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 

which continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return or 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 which is subject to sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

These five-year (sunset) reviews and 

this notice are in accordance with 

sections 751(c) and 751(d)(2) of the Act 

and published in accordance with 777(i) 

the Act, and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are tin mill products from 

Canada. For a complete description of 

the scope of this investigation, see 

Appendix I. 

Scope Comments 

During the course of this 

investigation, Commerce received scope 

comments from parties. Commerce 

issued a Preliminary Scope Decision 

Memorandum to address these 

comments and set aside a period of time 

for parties to address scope issues in 

scope-specific case and rebuttal briefs.3

We received comments from parties on 

the Preliminary Scope Decision 

Memorandum, which we address in the 

Final Scope Decision Memorandum.4

We did not make any changes to the 

scope of the investigation from the 

scope published in the Preliminary 

Determination, as noted in Appendix I. 

Verification 

Commerce verified the information 

relied upon in making its final 

determination in this investigation, 

consistent with section 782(i) of the 

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

Specifically, Commerce conducted onsite verifications of the information and 

data on home market sales, U.S. sales, 

and cost of production submitted by 

ArcelorMittal Dofasco G.P. (Dofasco).5

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in the case and 

rebuttal briefs submitted by interested 

parties in this investigation are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. A list of the issues 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is attached to this notice 

as Appendix II. 

Changes Since the Preliminary 

Determination 

We made certain changes to the 

margin calculation for Dofasco since the 

Preliminary Determination. For a 

discussion of these changes, see the 

Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

All-Others Rate 

Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act 

provides that the estimated weightedaverage dumping margin for all other 

producers and exporters not 

individually investigated shall be equal 

to the weighted average of the estimated 

weighted-average dumping margins 

established for individually investigated 

exporters and producers, excluding 

rates that are zero, de minimis, or 

determined entirely under section 776 

of the Act, i.e., facts otherwise available. 

In this investigation, Commerce 

calculated an individual estimated 

weighted-average dumping margin for 

the sole mandatory respondent, Dofasco, 

that is not zero, de minimis, or based 

entirely on facts otherwise available. 

Consequently, Commerce assigned the 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin calculated for Dofasco to all 

other producers and exporters of the 

merchandise under consideration, 

pursuant to section 735(c)(5)(A) of the 

Act. 

Final Negative Determination of 

Critical Circumstances 

In accordance with section 735(a)(3) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206, 

Commerce continues to find that critical 

circumstances do not exist for all 

companies in Canada. For a full 

description of the methodology and 

results of Commerce’s critical 

circumstances analysis, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum.6

Final Determination 

Commerce determines that the 

following estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins exist: 

Exporter/producer 

Estimated 

weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(percent) 

ArcelorMittal Dofasco G.P .......... 5.27 

All Others .................................... 5.27 

Disclosure 

Commerce intends to disclose the 

calculations performed in connection 

with this final determination to 

interested parties within five days of 

any public announcement or, if there is 

no public announcement, within five 

days of the date of publication of this 

notice, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.224(b). 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

In accordance with section 

735(c)(1)(B) of the Act, Commerce will 

instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to continue to suspend 

liquidation of all entries of subject 

merchandise, as described in Appendix 

I of this notice, which were entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after August 22, 

2023, the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination in the 

Federal Register. These suspension of 

liquidation instructions will remain in 

effect until further notice. 

Pursuant to section 735(c)(1)(B)(ii) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(d), upon 

the publication of this notice, we will 

instruct CBP to require a cash deposit 

for estimated antidumping duties for 

such entries as follows: (1) the cash 

deposit rate for the respondent listed in 

the table above is the company-specific 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin listed for the respondent in the 

table; (2) if the exporter is not the 

respondent listed in the table above, but 

the producer is, then the cash deposit 

rate is the company-specific estimated 

weighted-average dumping margin 

listed for the producer of the subject 

merchandise in the table above; and (3) 

the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers and exporters is the all-others 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin listed in the table above. 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

Notification 

In accordance with section 735(d) of 

the Act, Commerce will notify the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) of 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
1544 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 7 / Wednesday, January 10, 2024 / Notices 

its final affirmative determination of 

sales at LTFV. Because Commerce’s 

final determination is affirmative, in 

accordance with section 735(b)(2) of the 

Act, the ITC will make its final 

determination as to whether the 

domestic industry in the United States 

is materially injured, or threatened with 

material injury, by reason of imports or 

sales (or the likelihood of sales) for 

importation of tin mill products no later 

than 45 days after this final 

determination. If the ITC determines 

that such injury does not exist, this 

proceeding will be terminated, all cash 

deposits posted will be refunded, and 

suspension of liquidation will be lifted. 

If the ITC determines that such injury 

does exist, Commerce will issue an 

antidumping duty order directing CBP 

to assess, upon further instruction by 

Commerce, antidumping duties on all 

imports of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the effective 

date of the suspension of liquidation, as 

discussed in the ‘‘Continuation of 

Suspension of Liquidation’’ section 

above. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to an 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of the return or 

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 sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This final determination and notice 

are issued and published in accordance 

with sections 735(d) and 777(i) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.210(c). 

Dated: January 4, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 22, 2023, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register its 

preliminary negative determination in 

the LTFV investigation of tin mill 

products from Korea, in which we also 

postponed the final determination until 

January 4, 2023.1 We invited interested 

parties to comment on the Preliminary 

Determination.2 No interested party 

submitted comments. Consequently, no 

decision memorandum accompanies 

this notice. 

Scope of the Investigation 

The products covered by this 

investigation are tin mill products from 

Korea. For a complete description of the 

scope of this investigation, see the 

appendix to this notice. 

Scope Comments 

During the course of this 

investigation, Commerce received scope 

comments from parties. Commerce 

issued a Preliminary Scope Decision 

Memorandum to address these 

comments and set aside a period of time 

for parties to address scope issues in 

scope-specific case and rebuttal briefs.3

We received comments from parties on 

the Preliminary Scope Decision 

Memorandum, which we address in the 

Final Scope Decision Memorandum.4

We did not make any changes to the 

scope of this investigation from the 

scope published in the Preliminary 

Determination, as noted in the appendix 

to this notice. 

Verification 

Commerce verified the sales and cost 

information submitted by KG Dongbu 

Steel Co., Ltd. (KG Dongbu) and TCC 

Steel Corp. (TCC) for use in our final 

determination, consistent with section 

782(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). We used standard 

verification procedures, including an 

examination of relevant sales and 

accounting records, and original source 

documents provided by KG Dongbu and 

TCC.5

Changes Since the Preliminary 

Determination 

We made certain changes to the
