SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 13, 2017, Commerce 

published a notice of initiation of an 

administrative review of the 

countervailing duty order on pipe and 

tube from Turkey.1 On August 22, 2017, 

Commerce extended the deadline for the 

preliminary results to January 2, 2018.2

For a complete description of the events 

that followed the initiation of this 

review, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum.3 A list of topics 

discussed in the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum is included as an 

Appendix to 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). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at http://access.trade.gov, and is 

available to all parties in the Central 

Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main 

Department of Commerce building. In 

addition, a complete version of the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum can 

be accessed directly at http://

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed 

and electronic versions of the 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum are 

identical in content. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is welded line pipe, which is carbon 

and alloy steel pipe of a kind used for 

oil or gas pipelines, not more than 24 

inches in nominal outside diameter. For 

a complete description of the scope of 

the order, see the Preliminary Decision 

Memorandum. 

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act). For each of the subsidy 

programs found countervailable, we 

preliminarily determine that there is a 

subsidy, i.e., a government financial 

contribution that gives rise to a benefit 

to the recipient, and that the subsidy is 

specific.4 For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the accompanying 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum. 

Preliminary Results of Review 

Commerce determines that the 

following preliminary net subsidy rates 

exist for the period March 20, 2015, 

through December 31, 2015: 

Company Net subsidy rate 

(percent) 

Borusan Istikbal Ticaret and 

Borusan Mannesmann 

Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret 

A.S.5

0.78 ad valorem. 

Assessment Rates 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(4)(i), we assigned a subsidy 

rate for each producer/exporter subject 

to this administrative review. Upon 

issuance of the final results, Commerce 

shall determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

countervailing duties on all appropriate 

entries covered by this review. We 

intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 

days after publication of the final results 

of this review. 

Cash Deposit Rates 

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

Act, Commerce also intends to instruct 

CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties in the 

amounts indicated for the company 

listed above with regard to shipments of 

subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review. For all non-reviewed firms, we 

will instruct CBP to continue to collect 

cash deposits of estimated 

countervailing duties at the most recent 

company-specific or all-others rate 

applicable to the company, as 

appropriate. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Disclosure and Public Comment 

Commerce will disclose to parties to 

this proceeding the calculations 

performed in reaching the preliminary 

results within five days of the date of

Final Results of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, and Rescission 

of New Shipper Review; 2015–2016 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On June 29, 2017, the 

Department of Commerce (Commerce) 

published the preliminary results of the 

29th administrative and new shipper 

reviews of the antidumping duty order 

on tapered roller bearings and parts 

thereof, finished and unfinished (TRBs), 

from the People’s Republic of China 

(China). The period of review (POR) is 

June 1, 2015, through May 31, 2016. 

After analyzing the comments received, 

we have made changes to the final 

results of the administrative review. We 

are also rescinding the new shipper 

review (NSR). The final weightedaverage dumping margins for the 

reviewed firms in the administrative 

review are listed below in the section 

entitled ‘‘Final Results of the Review.’’ 

DATES: Applicable January 10, 2018.

DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–4987 or 

(202) 482–6274, respectively. 

Background 

These final results of administrative 

review cover three exporters of the 

subject merchandise, GSP Automotive 

Group Wenzhou Co. Ltd. (GSP), 

Hangzhou Yonggu Auto-Parts Co., Ltd. 

(Hangzhou Yonggu), and Zhejiang CTL 

Auto Parts Manufacturing Incorporated 

Co., Ltd. (CTL), as well as three 

additional companies, Zhejiang 

Zhaofeng Mechanical & Electronic Co., 

Ltd. (Zhaofeng), Yantai CMC Bearing 

Company Limited (Yantai CMC), and 

Zhejiang Zhengda Bearing Co., Ltd. 

(Zhengda), which do not qualify for 

separate rates. With respect to these 

later companies, we are treating them as 

part of the China-wide entity. The NSR 

covers Zhejiang Jingli Bearing 

Technology Co. Ltd. (Zhejiang Jingli). 

On July 6, 2017, Commerce published 

the Preliminary Results.1 In the 

Preliminary Results, we found that 

Zhejiang Jingli’s sale to the United 

States was not bona fide, as required by 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (the Act). 

Therefore, we indicated that we 

intended to rescind the NSR. 

In August 2017, we received case 

briefs from the petitioner, Zhaofeng, and 

Yantai CMC, and in September 2017, we 

received rebuttal briefs from the 

petitioner and Zhaofeng. In October 

2017, Commerce extended the deadline 

for the final results by 60 days to 

January 2, 2018.2 Commerce conducted 

this review in accordance with section 

751 of the Act. 

Scope of the Order 3

The merchandise covered by the order 

includes tapered roller bearings and 

parts thereof. The subject merchandise 

is currently classifiable under 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS) subheadings: 

8482.20.00, 8482.91.00.50, 8482.99.15, 

8482.99.45, 8483.20.40, 8483.20.80, 

8483.30.80, 8483.90.20, 8483.90.30, 

8483.90.80, 8708.70.6060, 8708.99.2300, 

8708.99.4850, 8708.99.6890, 

8708.99.8115, and 8708.99.8180. The
