Welded Line Pipe From the Republic of 

Korea and the Republic of Turkey: 

Continuation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Orders 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of the 

determinations by the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) and the 

International Trade Commission (ITC) 

that revocation of the antidumping duty 

(AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) 

orders on welded line pipe from the 

Republic of Korea (Korea) and the 

Republic of Turkey (Turkey) would 

likely lead to continuation or recurrence 

of dumping, net countervailable 

subsidies, and material injury to an 

industry in the United States, 

Commerce is publishing a notice of 

continuation of these AD and CVD 

orders. 

DATES: Applicable June 30, 2021. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Amaris Wade, Office II, AD/CVD 

Operations, Enforcement and 

Compliance, International Trade 

Administration, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue 

NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: 

(202) 482–3874. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 1, 2015, Commerce 

published the AD orders on welded line 

pipe from Korea and Turkey,1 and the 

CVD order on welded line pipe from 

Turkey.2 On November 2, 2020, the ITC 

instituted,3 and on November 3, 2020, 

Commerce initiated,4 the first five-year 

(sunset) reviews of the AD Orders and 

the CVD Order, pursuant to section 

751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). As a result of its 

reviews, Commerce determined that 

revocation of the AD Orders would be 

likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of dumping, and revocation 

of the CVD Order would be likely to 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

countervailable subsidies. Therefore, 

Commerce notified the ITC of the 

magnitude of the margins of dumping 

and the net subsidy rates likely to 

prevail should the AD Orders and the 

CVD Order be revoked.5

On June 24, 2021, the ITC published 

its determinations, pursuant to sections 

751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that 

revocation of the AD Orders and the 

CVD Order would likely lead to 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States within a reasonably foreseeable 

time.6

Scope of the Orders 

The scope of these orders is circular 

welded carbon and alloy steel (other 

than stainless steel) pipe of a kind used 

for oil or gas pipelines (welded line 

pipe), not more than 24 inches in 

nominal outside diameter, regardless of 

wall thickness, length, surface finish, 

end finish, or stenciling. Welded line 

pipe is normally produced to the 

American Petroleum Institute (API) 

specification 5L, but can be produced to 

comparable foreign specifications, to 

proprietary grades, or can be non-graded 

material. All pipe meeting the physical 

description set forth above, including 

multiple-stenciled pipe with an API or 

comparable foreign specification line 

pipe stencil is covered by the scope of 

these orders. 

The welded line pipe that is subject 

to these orders is currently classifiable 

in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS) under 

subheadings 7305.11.1030, 

7305.11.5000, 7305.12.1030, 

7305.12.5000, 7305.19.1030, 

7305.19.5000, 7306.19.1010, 

7306.19.1050, 7306.19.5110, and 

7306.19.5150. The subject merchandise 

may also enter in HTSUS 7305.11.1060 

and 7305.12.1060. While the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the scope of these 

orders is dispositive. 

Continuation of the Orders 

As a result of the determinations by 

Commerce and the ITC that revocation 

of the AD Orders and the CVD Order 

would likely lead to a continuation or 

a recurrence of dumping, 

countervailable subsidies, and material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a), 

Commerce hereby orders the 

continuation of the AD Orders and the 

CVD Order. U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection will continue to collect AD 

and CVD cash deposits at the rates in 

effect at the time of entry for all imports 

of subject merchandise. 

The effective date of the continuation 

of the AD Orders and the CVD Order 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 123 / Wednesday, June 30, 2021 / Notices 34721 

will be the date of publication in the 

Federal Register of this notice of 

continuation. Pursuant to section 

751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to 

initiate the next five-year review of the 

AD Orders and the CVD Order not later 

than 30 days prior to the fifth 

anniversary of the effective date of 

continuation. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice also serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

return/destruction or conversion to 

judicial protective order of proprietary 

information disclosed under APO in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 

Failure to comply is a violation of the 

APO which may be subject to sanctions. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

These five-year (sunset) reviews and 

this notice are in accordance with 

sections 751(c) and (d)(2) of the Act and 

published in accordance with section 

777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.218(f)(4).

Needs and Uses: This request is for 

revision and extension of a currently 

approved information collection. 

The Coral Reef Conservation Act of 

2000 (16 U.S.C. 6401 et seq.) was 

enacted on December 14, 2000, to 

preserve, sustain and restore the 

condition of coral reef ecosystems; to 

promote the wise management and 

sustainable use of coral reef ecosystems 

to benefit local communities and the 

Nation; to develop sound scientific 

information on the condition of coral 

reef ecosystems and the threats to such 

ecosystems; to assist in the preservation 

of coral reefs by supporting 

conservation programs, including 

projects that involve affected local 

communities and non-governmental 

organizations; to provide financial 

resources for those programs and 

projects; and to establish a formal 

mechanism for the collecting and 

allocating of monetary donations from 

the private sector to be used for coral 

reef conservation projects. Under 

section 6403 of the Act, the Secretary, 

through the NOAA Administrator 

(Administrator) and subject to the 

availability of funds, is authorized to 

provide matching grants of financial 

assistance for coral reef conservation 

projects. Section 408(c) of the Act 

authorizes at least $8,000,000 annually 

for financial assistance projects under 

the Program. 

Collection activities for this program 

are outlined below and include: 1. 

Applicant creation and submission of 

requests for waivers of the non-Federal 

matching funds requirement; 2. Review 

of project proposals by Federal Agencies 

and non-Federal entities with 

jurisdiction or management authority 

over coral reef ecosystems in the area 

where the project is to be conducted; 

and 3. Revision of performance 

reporting methods to include a standard 

program-specific template and tracking 

report. 

As per section 6403(b) of the Act, 

NOAA will require that Federal funds 

for any coral conservation financial 

assistance project may not exceed 50 

percent of the total cost. However, the 

Administrator may waive all or part of 

the matching requirement if the 

Administrator determines that no 

reasonable means are available through 

which an applicant can meet the 

matching requirement and the probable 

benefit of the project outweighs the 

public interest in the matching 

requirement. The suitability for a waiver 

is determined after the applicant has 

submitted a written request with the 

application package and provided the 

proper justification. 

As per section 6403(f) of the Act, 

NOAA will review eligible coral reef 

conservation proposals using an 

external governmental review and 

merit-based peer review. As part of this 

review, NOAA will request and 

consider written comments on the 

proposal from each Federal agency, state 

government, or other government 

jurisdiction, including the relevant 

regional Fishery Management Councils 

established under the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and 

Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et 

seq.), or any National Marine Sanctuary, 

with jurisdiction or management 

authority over coral reef ecosystems in 

the area where the project is to be 

conducted. Pursuant to this requirement 

of the Act, NOAA will apply the 

following standard in requesting 

comments: (A) Proposals for projects in 

state or territorial waters, including 

Federal marine protected areas in such 

waters (e.g., National Marine 

Sanctuaries), will be submitted to that 

state or territorial government’s 

designated U.S. Coral Reef Task Force 

point of contact for comment; (B) 

proposals for projects in Federal waters 

will be submitted to the relevant Fishery 

Management Council for comment; (C) 

proposals for projects which require 

Federal permits will be submitted to the 

Federal agency which issued the permit 

for comment; (D) proposals for projects 

in Federal marine protected areas 

managed by Federal agencies (e.g., 

National Wildlife Refuges, National 

Parks, National Marine Sanctuaries, etc.) 

will be submitted to the respective 

Federal management authority for 

comment; and (E) NOAA will seek 

comments from other government 

entities, authorities, and/or 

jurisdictions, including international 

entities for projects proposed outside of 

U.S. waters, as necessary based on the 

nature and scope of the proposed 

project.
