Certain Hot-Rolled Steel Flat Products 

From the Republic of Turkey: Final 

Results of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review and Final 

Determination of No Shipments; 2018– 

2019 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) determines that certain hotrolled steel flat products from the 

Republic of Turkey (Turkey) were sold 

at less than normal value during the 

period of review (POR), October 1, 2018, 

through September 30, 2019. In 

addition, Commerce determines that six 

exporters had no shipments during the 

POR. 

DATES: Applicable August 23, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 24, 2021, Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results of 

this review.1 We invited interested 

parties to comment on the Preliminary 

Results. On March 26, 2021, AK Steel 

Corporation (a petitioner in the 

underlying less-than-fair-value 

investigation 2) and Cleveland-Cliffs 

Steel LLC (collectively, the domestic 

producers) filed a case brief.3 The 

domestic producers also filed a rebuttal 

brief on April 2, 2021.4 The sole 

mandatory respondent, Habas Sinai ve 

Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal Endustrisi A.S. 

(Habas), filed a case brief on March 26, 

2021.5

On June 17, 2021, and July 21, 2021, 

in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act), Commerce extended the time 

period for issuing these final results 

until August 20, 2021.6

We initiated this review on thirteen 

companies,7 including Colakoglu 

Metalurji, A.S. and Colakoglu Dis 

Ticaret A.S. (collectively, Colakoglu), 

which we had collapsed as a single 

entity in the underlying less-than-fairvalue investigation.8 Based on the final 

judgment of the U.S. Court of 

International Trade (CIT) in litigation 

associated with the underlying 

investigation, subject merchandise 

produced and exported by Colakoglu 

was excluded from the Order.9

Consequently, Commerce discontinued 

this review with respect to the subject 

merchandise produced and exported by 

Colakoglu, but not subject merchandise 

(1) produced by Colakoglu and exported 

by another company; or (2) produced by 

another company and exported by 

Colakoglu.10 Accordingly, these final 

results cover thirteen companies 

including Habas, six non-examined 

companies, including Colakoglu, and 

six no-shipments companies. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the 

Order is certain hot-rolled steel flat 

products. For a complete description of 

the scope of this Order, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum.11

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, Commerce 

determined that six exporters had no 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

during the POR: (1) Agir Haddecilik 

A.S. (Agir); (2) Eregli Demir ve Celik 

Fabrikalari T.A.S. and (3) Iskenderun 

Iron & Steel Works Ltd. (a/k/a/ 

Iskenderun Demir ve Celik A.S.) 

(collectively, Erdemir Group); (4) Gazi 

Metal Mamulleri Sanayi ve Ticaret 

A.S.(Gazi); (5) Seametal Sanayi ve Dis 

Ticaret Limited Sirketi (Seametal) 12; 

and (6) Tosyali Holding (Toscelik 

Profile and Sheet Ind. Co., Toscelik 

Profil ve Sac A.S.). 

We received no comments that were 

contrary to our preliminary findings 

with respect to those companies. 

Therefore, we continue to find that 

those exporters made no shipments of 

subject merchandise during the POR. 

Accordingly, consistent with our 

practice, we intend to instruct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

liquidate any existing entries of subject 

merchandise associated with these 

companies consistent with Commerce’s 

reseller policy.13

Analysis of the Comments Received 

We addressed all issues raised in the 

case and rebuttal briefs in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum, which is hereby 

adopted with this notice. A list of these 

issues is attached in an 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 http://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

directly at http://enforcement.trade.gov/ 

frn/index.html. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received, we made two 

changes to the Preliminary Results. For 

a full discussion of these changes, see 

the Issues and Decision Memorandum. 

Rate for Non-Examined Companies 

The statute and Commerce’s 

regulations do not address the 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 160 / Monday, August 23, 2021 / Notices 47059 

14This rate applies only for certain hot-rolled flat 

products produced in Turkey where Colakoglu 

acted as either the producer or exporter but not 

both. 

15 See Notice of Discontinuation Policy to Issue 

Liquidation Instructions After 15 Days in 

Applicable Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Proceedings, 86 FR 3995 (January 

15, 2021). 

16See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).

establishment of a rate to be applied to 

companies not selected for examination 

when Commerce limits its examination 

in an administrative review pursuant to 

section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, 

Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of 

the Act, which provides instructions for 

calculating the all-others rate in an 

investigation, for guidance when 

calculating the rate for companies 

which were not selected for individual 

examination in an administrative 

review. Under section 735(c)(5)(A) of 

the Act, the all-others rate is normally 

‘‘an amount equal to the weighted 

average of the estimated weighted 

average dumping margins established 

for exporters and producers 

individually investigated, excluding any 

zero or de minimis margins, and any 

margins determined entirely {on the 

basis of facts available}.’’ 

For these final results, we calculated 

a weighted-average dumping margin 

that is not zero, de minimis, or 

determined entirely on the basis of facts 

available for Habas, our sole mandatory 

respondent. Accordingly, we have 

determined the weighted-average 

dumping margin for the nonindividually examined companies to be 

equal to the weighted-average dumping 

margin calculated for Habas. 

Final Results of the Review 

Commerce determines that the 

following weighted-average dumping 

margins exist for the period October 1, 

2018, through September 30, 2019:

dumping margin

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed for these final results of 

review within five days of the 

publication date of this notice in the 

Federal Register, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.224(b). 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties 

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

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b), Commerce 

shall determine, and CBP shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries of subject merchandise in 

accordance with the final results of this 

review. 

Consistent with its recent notice,15

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 CIT, 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 expired (i.e., within 90 

days of publication). 

For Habas, Commerce has calculated 

importer-specific antidumping duty 

assessment rates. We calculated 

importer-specific antidumping duty 

assessment rates by aggregating the total 

amount of dumping calculated for the 

examined sales of the importer and 

dividing these amounts by the total 

entered value associated with those 

sales. Where either the respondent’s 

weighted-average dumping margin is 

zero or de minimis within the meaning 

of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), or an importerspecific assessment rate is zero or de 

minimis, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate the appropriate entries 

without regard to antidumping duties. 

For the non-examined companies, we 

will instruct CBP to assess antidumping 

duties at an ad valorem rate equal to 

each company’s weighted-average 

dumping margin. 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by Habas 

where it did not know that its 

merchandise was destined for the 

United States, and for all entries 

attributed to the companies which we 

have found to have had no shipments 

during the POR, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate such unreviewed entries 

pursuant to the reseller policy,16 i.e., the 

assessment rate for such entries will be 

equal to the all-others rate established in 

the investigation (i.e., 2.73 percent),17 if 

there is no rate for the intermediate 

company(ies) involved in the 

transaction. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements for estimated antidumping 

duties will be effective for all shipments 

of the 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 rate for each specific 

company listed above will be equal to 

each company’s weighted-average 

dumping margin established in the final 

results of this review, (except if the ad 

valorem rate is de minimis, in which 

case the cash deposit rate will be zero); 

(2) for previously investigated 

companies not participating in this 

review, the cash deposit will continue 

to be the company-specific rate 

published for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding in 

which the company participated; (3) if 

the exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review, or the underlying investigation, 

but the producer is, then the cash 

deposit rate will be the companyspecific rate established for the 

completed segment for the most recent 

POR for the producer of the 

merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other producers or exporters 

will continue to be 2.73 percent, the allothers rate established in the underlying 

investigation. 

These 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 prior to 

liquidation of the relevant entries 

during this review period. Failure to 

comply with this requirement could 

result in the presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of doubled antidumping duties. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective order (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

final results in accordance with sections 

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

CFR 351.221(b)(5).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In accordance with section 705(d) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act), on July 2, 2021, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register its 

affirmative final determinations in the 

CVD investigations of seamless pipe 

from Korea and Russia.1 On August 16, 

2021, the ITC notified Commerce of its 

affirmative final determinations, 

pursuant to section 705(d) of the Act, 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured within the meaning 

of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by 

reason of subsidized imports of 

seamless pipe from Korea and Russia.2

Scope of the Orders 

The merchandise covered by these 

orders is seamless pipe from Korea and 

Russia. For a complete description of 

the scope of these orders, see the 

appendix to this notice. 

Countervailing Duty Orders 

In accordance with sections 

705(b)(1)(A)(i) and 705(d) of the Act, the 

ITC has notified Commerce of its final 

determinations that the industry in the 

United States producing seamless pipe 

is materially injured by reason of 

subsidized imports of seamless pipe 

from Korea and Russia. Therefore, in 

accordance with section 705(c)(2) of the 

Act, we are issuing these CVD orders. 

Because the ITC determined that 

imports of seamless pipe from Korea 

and Russia are materially injuring a U.S. 

industry, unliquidated entries of such 

merchandise from Korea and Russia, 

entered or withdrawn from warehouse 

for consumption, are subject to the 

assessment of countervailing duties. 

Countervailing duties will be assessed 

on unliquidated entries of seamless pipe 

from Korea and Russia entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after December 11, 

2020, the date of publication of the 

preliminary determinations,3 but will 

not include entries occurring after the 

expiration of the provisional measures 

period and before the publication of the 

ITC’s final injury determination under 

section 705(b) of the Act, as further 

described below. 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation and Cash Deposits 

In accordance with section 706(a) of 

the Act, Commerce will direct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

assess, upon further instruction by 

Commerce, countervailing duties for all 

relevant entries of seamless pipe from 

Korea and Russia in an amount equal to 

the net countervailable subsidy rates for 

the subject merchandise. On or after the 

publication of the ITC’s final injury 

determination in the Federal Register, 

CBP must require, at the same time as 

importers would normally deposit 

estimated import duties on this 

merchandise, cash deposits for each
