SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 21, 2020, Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results of 

this administrative review and invited 

interested parties to comment.1 This 

administrative review covers 41 

producers and/or exporters of the 

subject merchandise. Commerce 

selected R.N. Gupta & Co. Ltd. (Gupta) 

and Norma (India) Limited (the Norma 

Group) for individual examination. The 

producers/exporters not selected for 

individual examination are listed in the 

‘‘Final Results of the Review’’ section of 

this notice.2

On January 21, 2021, the Norma 

Group submitted its case brief.3 On the 

same day, Weldbend Corporation and 

Boltex Manufacturing Co., L.P. 

(collectively, the petitioners), submitted 

a case brief related to Gupta.4 On 

January 27, 2021, the petitioners and 

Gupta submitted rebuttal briefs.5 No 

other party submitted case or rebuttal 

briefs. 

On March 30, 2021, we extended the 

deadline for these final results, until 

June 18, 2021.6 Commerce conducted 

this administrative review in 

accordance with section 751 of the 

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

Scope of the Order 7

The scope of the Order covers 

finished carbon steel flanges. Finished 

carbon steel flanges are currently 

classified under subheadings 

7307.91.5010 and 7307.91.5050 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). They may also 

be entered under HTSUS subheadings 

7307.91.5030 and 7307.91.5070. While 

HTSUS subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the scope of this 

order is dispositive. 

For a full description of the scope of 

the Order, see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum.8

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised by the parties in 

their case and rebuttal briefs are 

addressed in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. A list of the issues which 

parties raised, and to which we 

responded in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, follows in the appendix 

to this notice. The Issues and 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 https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly on the internet at http://

enforcement.trade.gov/frn/index.html. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received, and for the reasons 

explained in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum, Commerce made certain 

changes to the preliminary weightedaverage dumping margin for Gupta. 

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

preliminarily determined that Silbo had 

no shipments of subject merchandise 

during the POR. We received no 

comments from interested parties 

regarding that preliminary 

determination, nor did we receive any 

record evidence that would call into 

question our preliminary determination 

of no shipments. Accordingly, for these 

final results, we continue to determine 

that Silbo had no shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR. Consistent 

with Commerce’s practice,9 we intend 

to instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to liquidate any 

existing entries of subject merchandise 

produced by Silbo, but exported by 

other parties, at the rate for the 

intermediate reseller, if available, or at 

the all-others rate.10

Final Results of Administrative Review 

For these final results, we determine 

that the following weighted-average 

dumping margins exist for the period 

August 1, 2018, through July 31, 2019: 

Exporter/manufacturer

11 In the preliminary determination of sales at 

less-than-fair value (LTFV) investigation, Commerce 

determined that Norma (India), Limited, USK 

Exports Private Limited, Uma Shanker Khandelwal 

& Co., and Bansidhar Chiranjilal) were a single 

entity (collectively ‘‘Norma Group’’). See Finished 

Carbon Steel Flanges from India: Preliminary 

Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and 

Postponement of Final Determination, 82 FR 9719 

(February 8, 2017), and accompanying PDM at 4– 

5; unchanged in Finished Carbon Steel Flanges 

from India: Final Determination of Sales at Less 

Than Fair Value, 82 FR 29483 (June 29, 2017). In 

this administrative review, Norma Group has 

presented evidence that the factual basis on which 

Commerce made its prior determination has not 

changed. See Norma Group’s July 23, 2020 

Supplemental Questionnaire Response at 2–9. 

Therefore, in this administrative review, Commerce 

continues to collapse these four entities and treat 

them as a single entity. 

12The name of this company was incorrected 

spelled ‘‘CHQ Forge Pvt. Ltd.’’ in the Preliminary 

Results. See Initiation Notice. We have corrected 

the spelling of this company’s name for purposes 

of these final results.

Rate for Non-Selected Respondents 

For the companies that were not 

selected for individual review, we 

assigned a rate based on the rates for the 

respondents that were selected for 

individual examination.13 Consistent 

with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 

Federal Circuit’s decision in Albemarle, 

we are applying to the 33 companies not 

selected for individual examination the 

zero percent rates calculated for the 

mandatory respondents, Gupta and the 

Norma Group.14 These are the only rates 

determined in this review for individual 

respondents and, thus, should be 

applied to the 33 firms not selected for 

individual examination under section 

735(c)(5)(B) of the Act. 

Disclosure 

Commerce intends to disclose the 

calculations performed for these final 

results to parties in this proceeding 

within five days of the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.224(b). 

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of this 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine and CBP shall assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. Because the weighted-average 

dumping margins of Gupta, the Norma 

Group, and the 33 firms not selected for 

individual examination have been 

determined to be zero percent within 

the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c), we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate the 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. In accordance with 

Commerce’s practice, for entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR for 

which Gupta and the Norma Group did 

not know that the merchandise was 

destined for the United States, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at 

the all-others rate if there is no 

company-specific rate for the 

intermediate company(ies) involved in 

the transaction.15

Consistent with its recent notice,16

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

33228 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 119 / Thursday, June 24, 2021 / Notices 

17 In the Preliminary Results, Commerce 

inadvertently listed as the all-others rate the 

estimated weighted-average dumping margin from 

the antidumping duty order on carbon steel flanges 

from India. See Finished Carbon Steel Flanges from 

India: Final Determination of Sales at Less Than 

Fair Value, 82 FR 29483 (June 29, 2017); see also 

Order, 82 FR at 40136. We have revised our 

reference to the all-others rate to reflect the cash 

deposit rate, adjusted for subsidy offsets, as stated 

in the Order.

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of 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 rates for the reviewed 

companies will be the rates established 

in the final results of this administrative 

review; (2) for merchandise exported by 

producers or exporters not covered in 

this administrative 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 recent period; (3) if the exporter is 

not a firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original LTFV 

investigation, but the producer is, the 

cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recent segment 

of this proceeding for the producer of 

the subject merchandise; (4) the cash 

deposit rate for all other producers or 

exporters will continue to be 8.91 

percent,17 the all-others rate established 

in the LTFV investigation. 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 

of antidumping duties 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 duties 

and/or countervailing duties occurred 

and the subsequent assessment of 

doubled antidumping duties. 

Administrative Protective Order (APO) 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to APO of their 

responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which 

continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return or destruction 

of APO materials or conversion to 

judicial protective order is hereby 

requested. Failure to comply with the 

regulations and the terms of an APO is 

a sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 

CFR 351.213(h) and 351.221(b)(5).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 1, 2021, Commerce 

published the Preliminary 

Determination in the LTFV investigation 

of copper pipe and tube from Vietnam.1

On February 8, 2021, Commerce 

postponed the final determination of 

this investigation to June 16, 2021.2 The 

petitioners in this investigation are the 

American Copper Tube Coalition and its 

individual constituent members 

(collectively, the petitioners).3 The sole 

mandatory respondent in this 

investigation is Hailiang (Vietnam) 

Copper Manufacturing Company 

Limited (Hailiang Vietnam),4 and in the 

Preliminary Determination, Commerce 

determined that Hailiang Vietnam and 

Hongkong Hailiang Metal Trading 

Limited (also known as Hong Kong 

Hailiang Metal Trading Limited) 

(Hongkong Hailiang) should be treated 

as a single entity, collectively, Hailiang 

Vietnam/Hongkong Hailiang.5 We 

invited interested parties to comment on 

the Preliminary Determination.6 A 

summary of the events that occurred 

since Commerce published the 

Preliminary Determination may be
