Needs and Uses: EDA must collect 

specific information from applicants for 

EDA investment assistance to evaluate 

whether proposed projects satisfy 

eligibility and programmatic 

requirements contained in EDA’s 

authorizing legislation, the Public 

Works and Economic Development Act 

of 1965, as amended (42 U.S.C. 3121 et 

seq.); EDA regulations at 13 CFR 

Chapter III; and applicable Notices of 

Funding Opportunity. 

EDA proposes to revise and extend 

the following forms under this 

information collection: Forms ED–900 

(General Application for EDA 

Programs), ED–900B (Beneficiary 

Information Form), ED–900C (EDA 

Application Supplement for 

Construction Programs), ED–900D 

(Requirements for Design and 

Engineering Assistance), ED–900E 

(Calculation of Estimated Relocation 

and Land Acquisition Expenses), and 

ED–900F (Additional EDA Assurances 

for Revolving Loan Fund Investments). 

EDA does not propose to extend two 

existing forms under this information 

collection: Forms ED–900A (Additional 

EDA Assurances for Construction Or 

Non-Construction Investments and ED– 

900P (Proposal for EDA Assistance). 

Form ED–900A is no longer necessary 

because the assurances collected in 

Form ED–900A are redundant with 

other materials, including other forms 

under this information collection and 

certifications collected by SAM.gov. 

Form ED–900P is no longer necessary 

because EDA has removed the 

requirement for a financial assistance 

applicant to submit a proposal prior to 

submitting a full application. By 

eliminating Forms ED–900A and ED– 

900P, EDA will reduce the estimated 

time per response to this information 

collection. 

Affected Public: Entities eligible for 

EDA financial assistance, including 

Federal, State, and local governments; 

Indian tribes; institutions of higher 

education; not-for-profit entities; and 

business or other for-profit 

organizations. 

Frequency: During application for 

EDA investment assistance. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

Seamless Refined Copper Pipe and 

Tube From the Socialist Republic of 

Vietnam: Antidumping Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: Based on the affirmative final 

determinations by the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC), 

Commerce is issuing an antidumping 

duty (AD) order on seamless refined 

copper pipe and tube (copper pipe and 

tube) from the Socialist Republic of 

Vietnam (Vietnam). 

DATES: Applicable August 13, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In accordance with sections 735(d) 

and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act), on June 24, 2021, 

Commerce published its affirmative 

final determination of sales at less than 

fair value (LTFV) of copper pipe and 

tube from Vietnam.1 As part of this 

determination, Commerce made 

negative critical circumstances findings 

for the sole mandatory respondent, 

Hailiang (Vietnam) Copper 

Manufacturing Company (Hailiang 

Vietnam) and its affiliated trading 

company Hongkong Hailiang Metal 

Trading Limited (also known as Hong 

Kong Hailiang Metal Trading Limited) 

(Hongkong Hailiang) (collectively, 

Hailiang Vietnam/Hongkong Hailiang), 

the non-examined, separate rate 

companies, and the Vietnam-wide 

entity.2 On August 5, 2021, the ITC 

notified Commerce of its final 

affirmative determination that an 

industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of LTFV 

imports of copper pipe and tube from 

Vietnam, within the meaning of section 

735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act.3

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by this order 

are copper pipe and tube from Vietnam. 

For a complete description of the scope 

of the order, see the appendix to this 

notice. 

Order 

In accordance with sections 

735(b)(1)(A)(i) and 735(d) of the Act, the 

ITC notified Commerce of its final 

determination that an industry in the 

United States is materially injured by 

reason of imports of copper pipe and 

tube from Vietnam.4 Therefore, 

Commerce is issuing this order in 

accordance with section 735(c)(2) of the 

Act. Because Commerce has determined 

that sales of copper pipe and tube from 

Vietnam were made at LTFV, and the 

ITC determined that imports of copper 

pipe and tube from Vietnam are 

materially injuring a U.S. industry, 

unliquidated entries of such 

merchandise from Vietnam entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption are subject to the 

assessment of antidumping duties.

Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than

9See Final Determination. 

In accordance with section 736(a)(1) 

of the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

assess, upon further instruction by 

Commerce, antidumping duties equal to 

the amount by which the normal value 

of the merchandise exceeds the export 

price (or constructed export price) of the 

subject merchandise for all relevant 

entries of copper pipe and tube from 

Vietnam. Antidumping duties will be 

assessed on unliquidated entries of 

copper pipe and tube from Vietnam 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after February 1, 

2021, the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination,5 but 

antidumping duties will not be assessed 

on entries of subject merchandise 

occurring after the expiration of the 

provisional measures period and before 

publication in the Federal Register of 

the ITC’s final injury determination, as 

further described below. 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

In accordance with section 736 of the 

Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to 

continue to suspend liquidation on all 

relevant entries of copper pipe and tube 

from Vietnam entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after the date of publication of the ITC’s 

final affirmative injury determination in 

the Federal Register. These instructions 

suspending liquidation will remain in 

effect until further notice. 

Pursuant to 735(c)(1)(B) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.210(d), Commerce will 

also instruct CBP to require cash 

deposits equal to the appropriate 

estimated weighted-average dumping 

margin indicated in the table below. 

Accordingly, effective on the date of 

publication of the ITC’s final affirmative 

injury determination, CBP will require, 

at the same time as an importer of 

record would normally deposit 

estimated duties on the subject 

merchandise, a cash deposit for each 

entry of subject merchandise equal to 

the appropriate estimated weightedaverage dumping margins listed below.6

Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping 

Margins 

The estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins are as follows:

Provisional Measures 

Section 733(d) of the Act states that 

suspension of liquidation pursuant to an 

affirmative preliminary determination 

may not remain in effect for more than 

four months, except that Commerce may 

extend the four-month period to no 

more than six months at the request of 

exporters representing a significant 

proportion of exports of the subject 

merchandise. Commerce published its 

affirmative Preliminary Determination 

on February 1, 2021.7 On February 8, 

2021, Commerce postponed the Final 

Determination and extended the 

provisional measures period from four 

months to six months.8 Commerce 

published the Final Determination in 

the Federal Register on June 24, 2021.9

The six-month period beginning on the 

date of publication of the LTFV 

Preliminary Determination ended on 

July 30, 2021. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

733(d) of the Act, Commerce will 

instruct CBP to terminate the 

suspension of liquidation and to 

liquidate, without regard to 

antidumping duties, unliquidated 

entries of copper pipe and tube from 

Vietnam, entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption after July 

30, 2021, the date on which the 

provisional measures expired, through 

the day preceding the date of 

publication of the ITC’s final affirmative 

injury determination in the Federal 

Register. Suspension of liquidation and 

the collection of cash deposits will 

resume on the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final determination in the Federal 

Register.
