Continuation of Antidumping Duty

Order and Countervailing Duty Order:

New Steel Rail From Canada

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of continuation of

antidumping duty order and

countervailing duty order: new steel rail

from Canada.

SUMMARY: On December 29, and

December 30, 1999, respectively, the

Department of Commerce (‘‘the

Department’’), pursuant to sections

751(c) and 752 of the Tariff Act of 1930,

as amended (‘‘the Act’’), determined

that revocation of the antidumping duty

order and countervailing duty order on

new steel rail from Canada would likely

lead to continuation or recurrence of

dumping and a countervailable subsidy

(64 FR 73013 (December 29, 1999) and

64 FR 73519 (December 30, 1999),

respectively). On January 26, 2000, the

International Trade Commission (‘‘the

Commission’’), pursuant to section

751(c) of the Act, determined that

revocation of the antidumping duty

order and countervailing duty order on

new steel rail from Canada would be

likely to lead to continuation or

recurrence of material injury to an

industry in the United States within a

reasonably foreseeable time (65 FR 4261

(January 26, 2000)). Therefore, pursuant

to 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4), the Department

is publishing this notice of the

continuation of the antidumping duty

order and countervailing duty order on

new steel rail from Canada.

DATES: February 9, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Darla D. Brown or Melissa G. Skinner,

Office of Policy for Import

Administration, International Trade

Administration, U.S. Department of

Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution

Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20230;

telephone: (202) 482–3207 or (202) 482–

1560, respectively.

Background

On June 1, 1999, the Department

initiated, and the Commission

instituted, sunset reviews (64 FR 23596

and 64 FR 23677, respectively) of the

antidumping duty order and

countervailing duty order on new steel

rail from Canada pursuant to section

751(c) of the Act. As a result of these

reviews, the Department found that

revocation of the antidumping duty

order would likely lead to continuation

or recurrence of dumping and

revocation of the countervailing duty

order would likely lead to continuation

or recurrence of a countervailable

subsidy. The Department notified the

Commission of the magnitude of the

margin likely to prevail, the net

countervailable subsidy, and the nature

of the subsidy likely to prevail were the

antidumping duty order and

countervailing duty order revoked.1

On January 26, 2000, the Commission

determined, pursuant to section 751(c)

of the Act, that revocation of the

antidumping duty order and

countervailing duty order would likely

lead to continuation or recurrence of

material injury to an industry in the

United States within a reasonably

foreseeable time.2

Scope

The merchandise subject to this

antidumping duty order and this

countervailing duty order is new steel

rail, whether of carbon, high carbon,

alloy or other quality steel from Canada.

Subject merchandise includes, but is not

limited to, standard rails, all main line

sections (at least 30 kilograms per meter

or 60 pounds per yard), heat-treated or

head-hardened (premium) rails, transit

rails, contact rails (or ‘‘third rail’’) and

crane rails. Rails are used by the

railroad industry, by rapid transit lines,

by subways, in mines, and in industrial

applications.

Specifically excluded from the order

are light rails (less than 30 kilograms per

meter or 60 pounds per yard). Also

excluded from the order are relay rails,

which are used rails taken up from

primary railroad track and relaid in a

railroad yard or on a secondary track. As

a result of a changed circumstances

review in 1996, the antidumping duty
