Certain Circular Welded Carbon Steel 

Pipes and Tubes from Taiwan: Notice 

of Intent to Rescind Administrative 

Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: In response to a request from 

Allied Tube & Conduit Corporation, a 

domestic interested party, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) initiated an administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on certain circular welded carbon steel 

pipes and tubes from Taiwan. This 

review covers one firm, Yieh Hsing 

Enterprise Co., Ltd. (Yieh Hsing), for the 

period May 1, 2007, through April 30, 

2008. The Department intends to 

rescind this review after determining 

that Yieh Hsing did not have entries 

during the period of review (POR) upon 

which to assess antidumping duties. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 21, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Department published an antidumping 

duty order on certain circular welded 

carbon steel pipes and tubes from 

Taiwan on May 7, 1984. See Certain 

Circular Welded Carbon Steel Pipes and 

Tubes From Taiwan: Antidumping Duty 

Order, 49 FR 19369 (May 7, 1984). The 

Department published a notice of 

‘‘Opportunity to Request an 

Administrative Review’’ of the 

antidumping duty order for the period 

May 1, 2007, through April 30, 2008, on 

May 5, 2008. See Antidumping or 

Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or

2008, Allied Tube & Conduit 

Corporation, a producer of the domestic 

like product, requested that the 

Department conduct an administrative 

review of Yieh Hsing’s exports of 

merchandise covered by the order. In 

response to the request from Allied 

Tube & Conduit Corporation, on July 1, 

2008, the Department published the

amended (the Act). See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews and Requests 

for Revocation in Part, 73 FR 37409 

(July 1, 2008). 

On August 18, 2008, Yieh Hsing 

submitted a letter to the Department 

certifying that it had no shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. On August 20, 

2008, Allied Tube & Conduit 

Corporation submitted a letter 

requesting that the review be extended 

to cover Yieh Phui Enterprise Company, 

Ltd. (Yieh Phui), noting that Yieh Phui 

had been found to be the successor–ininterest to Yieh Hsing in a prior 

proceeding. On August 25, 2008, Yieh 

Hsing and another interested party, 

SeAH Steel America (SeAH), each 

submitted letters objecting to the 

extension of the review to cover Yieh 

Phui. On August 27, 2008, Allied Tube 

& Conduit Corporation filed a response 

to SeAH’s comments, reiterating its 

request that the review be extended to 

cover Yieh Phui. On November 14, 

2008, the Department determined that 

the review should not be extended to 

Yieh Phui. See the November 14, 2008 

memorandum to the file entitled 

‘‘Treatment of Yieh Hsing Enterprise 

Co., Ltd. (Yieh Hsing) and Yieh Phui 

Enterprise Co. Ltd. (Yieh Phui): 2007/ 

2008 Administrative Review of the 

Antidumping Duty Order on Circular 

Welded Carbon Steel Pipes and Tubes 

from Taiwan.’’ 

On November 18, 2008, the 

Department conducted a data query of 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(CBP) import entry information, and 

found no evidence of entries during the 

POR involving subject merchandise 

manufactured or shipped by Yieh Hsing. 

See the December 23, 2008, 

memorandum from Steve Bezirganian to 

the File. The Department issued a ‘‘No 

Shipment Inquiry’’ to CBP, to confirm 

that there were no POR exports of 

subject merchandise manufactured and/ 

or exported by Yieh Hsing. See CBP 

message number 8357202, dated 

December 22, 2008. CBP only responds 

to the Department’s inquiry when CBP 

finds that there have been shipments. 

CBP did not respond to our inquiry. 

Therefore, we preliminarily determine 

there were no Yieh Hsing shipments or 

entries of subject merchandise exported 

by Yieh Hsing to the United States 

during the POR. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is certain circular welded carbon steel 

pipes and tubes from Taiwan, which are 

defined as: welded carbon steel pipes 

and tubes, of circular cross section, with 

walls not thinner than 0.065 inch, and 

0.375 inch or more but not over 4.5 

inches in outside diameter, currently 

classified under Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

item numbers 7306.30.5025, 

7306.30.5032, 7306.30.5040, and 

7306.30.5055. Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the scope of the 

order is dispositive. 

Intent To Rescind Administrative 

Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the 

Department may rescind an 

administrative review if it concludes 

that during the POR there were no 

entries, exports, or sales of the subject 

merchandise. The Department’s 

practice, supported by precedent, 

requires that there be entries during the 

POR upon which to assess antidumping 

duties. See, e.g., Stainless Steel Bar from 

Italy: Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review and Preliminary Rescission of 

Review, 70 FR 17656 (April 7, 2005) 

unchanged in Stainless Steel Bar from 

Italy: Final Results of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review and Rescission 

of Review, 70 FR 46480 (August 10, 

2005). 

Yieh Hsing certified that it had no 

entries of subject merchandise during 

the 2007–2008 POR, and the 

Department’s review of official data 

from CBP did not indicate otherwise. 

Therefore, we have preliminarily 

determined that Yieh Hsing had no 

shipments of subject merchandise 

during the POR, and we intend to 

rescind the 2007–2008 administrative 

review.
