(Surya) made no shipments during the

through April 30, 2023. In addition, we

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On May 12, 1986, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

order on certain welded carbon steel 

standard pipes and tubes (pipe and 

tube) from India.1 On May 2, 2023, 

Commerce published in the Federal 

Register a notice of opportunity to 

request an administrative review of the 

Order.2 On July 12, 2023, based on 

timely requests for an administrative 

review, Commerce initiated an 

antidumping duty administrative review 

of 30 companies.3 For a detailed 

description of the events that followed 

the initiation of this review, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.4

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying these 

preliminary results, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

topics discussed in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is attached as 

Appendix I to this notice. The 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is a 

public document and is made available 

to the public via Enforcement and 

Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is directly 

available at: https://access.trade.gov/ 

public/FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by the Order 

include certain welded carbon steel 

standard pipes and tubes with an 

outside diameter of 0.375 inch or more 

but not over 16 inches. A full 

description of the scope of the Order is 

contained in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Partial Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), 

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the party that requested a review 

withdraws its request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation. Nucor Tubular Products Inc. 

(Nucor), a domestic interested party, 

timely withdrew its request for an 

administrative review of the 29 

companies listed in Appendix II within 

90 days of the date of publication of the 

Initiation Notice.5 As a result, 

Commerce is rescinding this review 

with respect to these companies, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). 

Preliminary Determination of No 

Shipments 

Based on record information, we 

preliminarily determine that Surya did 

not have knowledge that the subject 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, and, thus, Surya is not 

considered the exporter of subject 

merchandise during the POR for the 

purposes of this review.6 Therefore, we 

preliminarily determine that Surya 

made no shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR. Consistent 

with Commerce’s practice, we find that 

it is not appropriate to rescind the 

review with respect to Surya, but rather 

to complete the review and issue

on the final results of this review.7

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a) of the 

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

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. 

Disclosure 

Normally, Commerce will disclose to 

the parties in a proceeding the 

calculations performed in connection 

with the preliminary results within five 

days of any public announcement or, if 

there is no public announcement, 

within five days of the date of 

publication of the notice of the 

preliminary results in the Federal 

Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.224(b). However, because 

Commerce is rescinding the review for 

29 companies and preliminarily finding 

that Surya made no shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR, there are 

no calculations to disclose. 

Public Comment 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309(c), 

interested parties may submit case briefs 

no later than 30 days after the date of 

publication of this notice. Rebuttal 

briefs, limited to issues raised in the 

case briefs, may be filed not later than 

five days after the date for filing case 

briefs.8 Interested parties who submit 

case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this 

proceeding must submit: (1) a table of 

contents listing each issue; and (2) a 

table of authorities.9

As provided under 19 CFR 

351.309(c)(2) and (d)(2), in prior 

proceedings, we have encouraged 

interested parties to provide an 

executive summary of their brief that 

should be limited to five pages total, 

including footnotes. In this review, we 

instead request that interested parties 

provide, at the beginning of their briefs, 

a public executive summary for each 

issue raised in their briefs.10 Further, we 

request that interested parties limit their 

executive summary of each issue to no 

more than 450 words, no including 

citations. We intend to use the executive 

summaries as the basis of the comment 

summaries included in the issues and 

decision memorandum that will 

accompany the final results in this 

administrative review. We request that 

interested parties include footnotes for 

relevant citations in the executive 

summary of each issue. Note that 

Commerce has amended certain of its 

requirements pertaining to the service of 

documents in 19 CFR 351.303(f).11

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance, filed electronically via 

Commerce’s electronic records system, 

ACCESS. Requests should contain: (1) 

the party’s name, address, and 

telephone number; (2) the number of 

participants; and (3) a list of issues to be 

discussed. Issues raised in the hearing 

will be limited to those raised in the 

respective case briefs. 

A submission in ACCESS must be 

received successfully in its entirety by 

5:00 p.m. Eastern Time within 30 days 

after the date of publication of this 

notice. 

Assessment Rates 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by Surya, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate suspended 

entries at the all-others rate if there is no 

rate for the intermediate company(ies) 

involved in the transaction.12

For the companies for which this 

review is rescinded with these 

preliminary results, we will instruct 

CBP to assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries at a rate equal to the 

cash deposit of estimated antidumping 

duties required at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption, during the period May 1, 

2022, through April 30, 2023, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(l)(i). 

For the remaining companies, 

Commerce intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 

days after the date of publication of the 

final results of this review in the 

Federal Register. If a timely summons is 

filed at the U.S. Court of International 

Trade, the assessment instructions will 

direct CBP not to liquidate relevant 

entries until the time for parties to file 

a request for a statutory injunction has 

expired (i.e., within 90 days of 

publication). 

The final results of this administrative 

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 duties, where 

applicable. 

Final Results of Review 

Unless the deadline is otherwise 

extended, Commerce intends to issue 

the final results of this administrative 

review, including the results of its 

analysis of issues raised by interested 

parties in the case and rebuttal briefs, 

within 120 days of publication of these 

preliminary results in the Federal 

Register, pursuant to section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.213(h)(1). 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a preliminary 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of 

antidumping duties prior to liquidation 

of the relevant entries during this POR. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in Commerce’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of doubled 

antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4). 

Dated: January 30, 2024.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) determines that 

sales of strontium chromate from France 

by Socie ́te ́ Nouvelle des Couleurs 

Zinciques (SNCZ) were not made at less 

than normal value (NV) during the 

period of review (POR) November 1, 

2021, through October 31, 2022. 

DATES: Applicable February 6, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Commerce published the Preliminary 

Results on November 3, 2023 and 

invited interested parties to comment.1

No interested party submitted 

comments. Accordingly, the final results 

are unchanged from the Preliminary 

Results. Commerce conducted this 

review in accordance with section 

751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 2

The product covered by this Order is 

strontium chromate from France. For a 

full description of the scope of the 

Order, see the Preliminary Results. 

Final Results of Review 

As no parties submitted comments 

regarding the Preliminary Results, 

Commerce made no changes to its 

determinations for the final results of 

this review. As a result of this review, 

we determine the following weightedaverage dumping margin exists for the 

POR: 

Exporter/producer 

Weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(percent) 

Socie ́te ́ Nouvelle des Couleurs 

Zinciques ................................. 0.00 

Disclosure 

Because Commerce received no 

comments on the Preliminary Results, 

we have not modified our analysis and 

no decision memorandum accompanies 

this Federal Register notice. We are 

adopting the Preliminary Results as the 

final results of this review. 

Consequently, there are no new 

calculations to disclose in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.224(b) for these final 

results. 

Assessment Rates 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 

Act, and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 

Commerce has determined, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

final results of this review. 

Where the respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is either zero 

or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 

percent), we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate the appropriate entries 

without regard to antidumping duties. 

Accordingly, because SNCZ’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero percent, 

we will instruct CBP to liquidate the 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. 

Commerce’s ‘‘reseller policy’’ will 

apply to entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by SNCZ 

included in these final results of review 

for which the reviewed company did 

not know that the merchandise it sold 

to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, 

trading company, or exporter) was 

destined for the United States. In such 

instance, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction.3

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

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 SNCZ will be equal 

to the weighted-average dumping 

margin established in the final results of 

this administrative review (i.e., 0.00 

percent); (2) for merchandise exported 

by a producer or exporter not covered in 

this review but covered in a prior 

segment of the proceeding, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the producer or 

exporter participated; (3) if the exporter 

is not a firm covered in this review, a 

prior review, or the original less-thanfair-value (LTFV) investigation, but the 

producer is, the cash deposit rate will be 

the rate established for the most recently 

completed segment of the proceeding 

for the producer of the merchandise; 

and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers and exporters will continue 

to be 32.16 percent ad valorem, the allothers rate established in the LTFV 

investigation.4 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 

certificate regarding the reimbursement
