its final determination in which it found 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of imports 

of rebar from Mexico.4 Therefore, in 

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

Act, we are publishing this AD order. 

Further, pursuant to section 736(a) of 

the Act, the Department will direct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

assess, upon further instruction by the 

Department, AD duties equal to the 

amounts listed below for all relevant 

entries of rebar from Mexico entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after April 24, 2014, 

the date of publication of the 

Preliminary Determination,5 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 as 

further described below. 

Continuation of Suspension of 

Liquidation 

In accordance with section 736 of the 

Act, we will instruct CBP to continue to 

suspend liquidation on all entries of 

rebar from Mexico. We will also instruct 

CBP to require cash deposits at rates 

equal to the estimated weighted-average 

dumping margins indicated below. 

These instructions suspending 

liquidation will remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Accordingly, effective on the date of 

publication of the ITC’s final affirmative 

injury determination, CBP will require, 

at the same time as importers would 

normally deposit estimated duties on 

this subject merchandise, a cash deposit 

at rates equal to the estimated weightedaverage dumping margins listed below.6

The relevant all-others rate applies to all 

producers or exporters not specifically 

listed. 

Provisional Measures 

Section 733(d) of the Act states that 

instructions issued pursuant to an 

affirmative preliminary determination 

may not remain in effect for more than 

four months except where exporters 

representing a significant proportion of 

exports of the subject merchandise 

request the Department to extend that 

four-month period to no more than six 

months. At the request of exporters that 

account for a significant proportion of 

rebar from Mexico, we extended the 

four-month period to no more than six 

months.7 The Department published the 

Preliminary Determination in the 

underlying investigation on April 24, 

2014. Therefore, the six-month period 

beginning on the date of publication of 

the preliminary determination ended on 

October 21, 2014. Furthermore, section 

737(b) of the Act states that definitive 

duties are to begin on the date of 

publication of the ITC’s final injury 

determination. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

733(d) of the Act and our practice, we 

will instruct CBP to terminate the 

suspension of liquidation and to 

liquidate, without regard to 

antidumping duties, unliquidated 

entries of rebar from Mexico, entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after October 21, 

2014, the date the provisional measures 

expired, until and through the day 

preceding the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final injury determination in the 

Federal Register. Suspension of 

liquidation will resume on or after the 

date of publication of the ITC’s final 

injury determination in the Federal 

Register.

Margins

dumping margins are as follows:

Critical Circumstances

critical circumstances determination on 

imports of rebar from Mexico, the 

Department will instruct CBP to lift 

suspension and refund any cash deposit 

made to secure payment of estimated 

antidumping duties with respect to 

entries of the merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after January 24,

amended (the Act), that an industry in 

the United States is materially injured 

by reason of subsidized imports of 

subject merchandise from Turkey.2 The 

ITC also determined that critical 

circumstances do not exist.3

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to this 

investigation is steel concrete 

reinforcing bar imported in either 

straight length or coil form (rebar) 

regardless of metallurgy, length, 

diameter, or grade. The subject 

merchandise is classifiable in the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS) primarily under 

item numbers 7213.10.0000, 

7214.20.0000, and 7228.30.8010. The 

subject merchandise may also enter 

under other HTSUS numbers including 

7215.90.1000, 7215.90.5000, 

7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0030, 

7221.00.0045, 7222.11.0001,

7222.30.0001, 7227.20.0080, 

7227.90.6085, 7228.20.1000, and 

7228.60.6000. Specifically excluded are 

plain rounds (i.e., non-deformed or 

smooth rebar). Also excluded from the 

scope is deformed steel wire meeting 

ASTM A1064/A1064M with no bar 

markings (e.g., mill mark, size, or grade) 

and without being subject to an 

elongation test. The HTSUS numbers 

are provided for convenience and 

customs purposes; however, the written 

description of the scope remains 

dispositive. 

Countervailing Duty Order 

In accordance with sections 

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

ITC notified the Department of its final 

determination that the industry in the 

United States producing rebar is 

materially injured by reason of 

subsidized imports of rebar from 

Turkey. Therefore, in accordance with 

section 705(c)(2) of the Act, we are 

publishing this CVD order. 

Further, pursuant to 706(a) of the Act, 

the Department will direct U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) to assess, 

upon further instruction by the 

Department, countervailing duties on 

unliquidated entries of rebar entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after September 15, 

2014, the date on which the Department 

published its final CVD determination 

in the Federal Register. With regard to 

the ITC’s negative critical circumstances 

determination, the Department will 

instruct CBP to lift suspension and 

refund any cash deposits of estimated 

countervailing duties for entries on or 

after June 17, 2014, (i.e., 90 days prior 

to the date of the Final Determination), 

but before September 15, 2014. 

Suspension of Liquidation 

In accordance with section 706 of the 

Act, the Department will direct CBP to 

continue the suspension of liquidation 

of rebar from Turkey, effective the date 

of publication of the Department’s 

notice of final determination in the 

Federal Register, and to assess, upon 

further advice by the Department, 

pursuant to section 706(a)(1) of the Act, 

countervailing duties for each entry of 

the subject merchandise in an amount 

based on the net countervailable 

subsidy rates for the subject 

merchandise, except for subject 

merchandise entered by Habas Sinai ve 

Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal Endustrisi A.S. 

(Habas), whose net subsidy rate is de 

minimis and, hence, is excluded from 

this order. This exclusion will apply 

only to subject merchandise both 

produced and exported by Habas. 

CBP must require, at the same time as 

importers would normally deposit 

estimated duties on this merchandise, as 

cash deposit equal to the rates noted 

below:
