Forged Steel Fluid End Blocks From 

Italy: Preliminary Results and 

Rescission in Part of Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review; 2022 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily 

finds that certain producers/exporters 

subject to this administrative review 

made sales of subject merchandise at 

less than normal value (NV) during the 

period of review (POR) January 1, 2022, 

through December 31, 2022. We are 

rescinding this administrative review, in 

part, with respect to 20 companies. We 

invite interested parties to comment on 

these preliminary results. 

DATES: Applicable February 6, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On January 29, 2021, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

antidumping duty order on forged steel 

fluid end blocks (fluid end blocks) from 

Italy.1 On March 14, 2023, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

notice of initiation of the administrative 

review of the Order.2 On May 19, 2023, 

Commerce selected Lucchini Mame ́

Forge S.p.A.3 and Cogne Acciai Speciali 

S.p.A. for individual examination as 

mandatory respondents in this 

administrative review.4 On September 

6, 2023, Commerce extended the time 

limit for these preliminary results to 

January 31, 2024.5 For a complete 

description of the events that occurred 

since the initiation of the administrative 

review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.6

A list of the topics discussed in the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum is 

attached as the Appendix I of this 

notice. The Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is on file electronically via Enforcement 

and Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS).

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to the Order 

are fluid end blocks from Italy. For a 

complete description of the scope of the 

Order, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Rescission of Administrative Review, in 

Part 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), 

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review when there are no 

reviewable suspended entries. Based on 

our analysis of U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) information, we 

preliminarily determine that 20 

companies had no entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR. On 

January 9, 2024, we notified parties of 

our intent to rescind this administrative 

review with respect to the 20 companies 

that have no reviewable suspended 

entries.7 No parties commented on our 

intent to rescind the review, in part. 

Therefore, we are rescinding the 

administrative review for the 20 

companies listed in Appendix II of this 

notice. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a) of the 

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

We calculated export prices and NV in 

accordance with sections 772 and 773 of 

the Act, respectively. For a full 

description of the methodology 

underlying our conclusions, see the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

Rate for Non-Examined Companies 

The statute and Commerce’s 

regulations do not address the 

establishment of a rate to be applied to 

companies not selected for individual 

examination when Commerce limits its 

examination in an administrative review 

pursuant to section 777A(c)(2) of the 

Act. Generally, Commerce looks to 

section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which 

provides instructions for calculating the 

all-others rate in an investigation of 

sales at less than fair value (LTFV), for 

guidance when calculating the 

weighted-average dumping margin for 

companies which were not selected for 

individual examination in an 

administrative review. 

Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act, 

the all-others rate is normally ‘‘an 

amount equal to the weighted average of 

the estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins established for 

exporters and producers individually 

investigated, excluding any zero or de 

minimis margins, and any margins 

determined entirely {on the basis of 

facts available}.’’ We preliminarily 

calculated a dumping margin for 

Lucchini that is not zero, de minimis, or 

determined entirely on the basis of facts 

available. Accordingly, we preliminarily 

assigned a margin of 1.41 percent based 

on Lucchini’s calculated weightedaverage dumping margin to the sole 

non-selected respondent, Officine 

Meccaniche Roselli S.r.l. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

Commerce preliminarily determines 

that the following estimated weightedaverage dumping margins exist for the 

period January 1, 2022, through 

December 31, 2022: 

Producer/exporter 

Weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin

Disclosure and Public Comment 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed for these preliminary results 

to interested parties within five days 

after the date of publication of this 

notice.8 Pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.309(c)(1)(ii), interested parties may 

submit case briefs to Commerce 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.9 Interested parties who submit 

case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this 

administrative review must submit: (1) 

a table of contents listing each issue; 

and (2) a table of authorities.10

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.11 Further, we 

request that interested parties limit their 

executive summary of each issue to no 

more than 450 words, not 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. 

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 

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 case 

and rebuttal briefs. 

All submissions, including case and 

rebuttal briefs, as well as hearing 

requests, should be filed using 

ACCESS.12 An electronically filed 

document must be received successfully 

in its entirety by ACCESS by 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on the established 

deadline. Note that Commerce has 

amended certain of its requirements 

pertaining to the service of documents 

in 19 CFR 351.303(f).13

Final Results of Review 

Unless otherwise extended, 

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of its analysis of 

issues raised in written briefs, no later 

than 120 days after the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, pursuant to 751(a)(3)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1). 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of the final results 

of this administrative review, pursuant 

to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, 

Commerce shall determine and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise covered by this review.14

If an examined respondent’s 

weighted-average dumping margin is 

not zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 

percent) in the final results of this 

review, we intend to calculate an 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 25 / Tuesday, February 6, 2024 / Notices 8159 

15See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). 

16See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act. 17See Order, 86 FR at 7530. 

importer-specific assessment rate for 

antidumping duties based on the ratio of 

the total amount of dumping calculated 

for each importer’s examined sales and 

the total entered value of those same 

sales in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1). For the companies 

identified above that were not selected 

for individual examination, we will 

instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

duties at a rate equal to the weightedaverage dumping margin established in 

the final results of review. If the 

respondent’s weighted-average dumping 

margin or an importer-specific 

assessment rate is zero or de minimis in 

the final results of this review, we 

intend to instruct CBP to liquidate the 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by either of 

the individually examined respondents 

for which they did not know that the 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate these entries at the all-others 

rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction.15

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 January 

1, 2022, through December 31, 2022, in 

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

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.16

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash 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 the companies 

listed above will be that established in 

the final results of this review, except if 

the rate is less than 0.50 percent and, 

therefore, de minimis within the 

meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in 

which case the cash deposit rate will be 

zero; (2) for previously investigated or 

reviewed companies not covered in this 

review, the cash deposit rate will 

continue to be the company-specific 

cash deposit rate published for the most 

recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the company 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the investigation of sales at 

LTFV, but the producer is, then the cash 

deposit rate will be the rate established 

for the most recently completed segment 

of this proceeding for the producer of 

the merchandise; and (4) the cash 

deposit rate for all other producers or 

exporters will continue to be 7.33 

percent, the all-others rate established 

in the LTFV investigation.17 These cash 

deposit requirements, when imposed, 

shall remain in effect until further 

notice. 

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 and/or countervailing 

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 and/or 

countervailing duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties, and/or an increase 

in the amount of antidumping duties by 

the amount of countervailing 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).
