Seamless Refined Copper Pipe and 

Tube From the People’s Republic of 

China and Mexico: Final Results of the 

Expedited Sunset Reviews of the 

Antidumping Duty Orders 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of these expedited 

sunset reviews, the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) finds that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

(AD) orders on seamless refined copper 

pipe and tube from the People’s 

Republic of China (China) and Mexico 

would likely lead to continuation or 

recurrence of dumping at the levels 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Sunset 

Review’’ section of this notice. 

DATES: Applicable March 3, 2022.

Paola Aleman Ordaz, AD/CVD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 1, 2021, Commerce 

published the notice of initiation of the 

sunset reviews of the AD Orders 1

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).2 In 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i) 

and (ii), Commerce received notices of 

intent to participate in these sunset 

reviews from American Copper Tube 

Coalition (ACTC) and its constituent 

members 3 (collectively, the domestic 

interested party), within 15 days after 

the date of publication of the Initiation 

Notice.4 The domestic interested party 

claimed interested party status under 

section 771(9)(C) of the Act. 

Commerce received adequate 

substantive responses to the Initiation 

Notice from the domestic interested 

party within the 30-day period specified 

in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).5 Commerce 

received no substantive responses from 

any respondent interested parties. On 

December 20, 2021, Commerce notified 

the U.S. International Trade 

Commission that Commerce did not 

receive an adequate substantive 

response from respondent interested 

parties.6 In accordance with section 

751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce 

conducted expedited, i.e., 120-day, 

sunset reviews of the AD Orders. 

Scope of the AD Orders 

The products subject to the AD Orders 

are all seamless refined copper pipes 

and tubes, and are currently classified 

in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS) under 

subheadings: 7411.10.1030 and 

7411.10.1090. Products subject to the 

order may also enter under HTSUS 

subheadings 7407.10.1500, 

7419.80.5050, 7419.99.5050, 

8415.90.8065, and 8415.90.8085. The 

HTSUS numbers are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes. A 

full description of the scope of the AD 

Orders is contained in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum.7 The written 

description is dispositive.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On January 19, 2022, the Department 

of Commerce (Commerce) initiated the 

countervailing duty (CVD) 

investigations of imports of certain steel 

nails (steel nails) from India, the 

Sultanate of Oman (Oman), Sri Lanka, 

Thailand, and the Republic of Turkey 

(Turkey).1 Currently, the preliminary 

determinations are due no later than 

March 25, 2022. 

Postponement of Preliminary 

Determinations 

Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

Commerce to issue the preliminary 

determination in a CVD investigation 

within 65 days after the date on which 

Commerce initiated the investigation. 

However, section 703(c)(1) of the Act 

permits Commerce to postpone the 

preliminary determination until no later 

than 130 days after the date on which 

Commerce initiated the investigation if: 

(A) The petitioner makes a timely 

request for a postponement; or (B) 

Commerce concludes that the parties 

concerned are cooperating, that the 

investigation is extraordinarily 

complicated, and that additional time is 

necessary to make a preliminary 

determination. Under 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a 

request for postponement 25 days or 

more before the scheduled date of the 

preliminary determination and must 

state the reason for the request. 

Commerce will grant the request unless 

it finds compelling reasons to deny the 

request. 

On February 24, 2022, the petitioner 2

in this investigation submitted a timely 

request that Commerce postpone the 

preliminary CVD determinations.3 The 

petitioner stated that it is requesting a 

postponement because additional time 

is needed to develop the records and 

review responses in order to determine 

accurate CVD rates.4

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioner has stated the 

reasons for requesting a postponement 

of the preliminary determinations, and 

Commerce finds no compelling reason 

to deny the request. Therefore, in 

accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) of 

the Act, Commerce is postponing the 

deadline for the preliminary 

determinations to no later than 130 days 

after the date on which this 

investigation was initiated, i.e., May 31, 

2022.5 Pursuant to section 705(a)(1) of
