Postponement of Due Date for the 

Preliminary Determination 

Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act), requires the 

Department to issue the preliminary 

determination in a countervailing duty 

investigation within 65 days after the 

date on which the Department initiated 

the investigation. However, the 

Department may postpone making the 

preliminary determination until no later 

than 130 days after the date on which 

the administering authority initiated the 

investigation if, among other reasons, 

petitioner makes a timely request for an 

extension pursuant to section 

703(c)(1)(A) of the Act. In the instant 

investigation, petitioner made such a 

request on May 22, 2009, requesting a 

postponement until 130 days from the 

initiation date. Therefore, pursuant to 

the discretion afforded the Department 

under 703(c)(1)(A), we are fully 

extending the due date for the 

preliminary determination. The 

deadline for the completion of the 

preliminary determination is now 

August 28, 2009. 

This notice is issued and published 

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act. 

Dated: May 28, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 31, 2008, U.S. Steel 

Corporation (petitioner) requested that 

the Department conduct an 

administrative review of Essar, Ispat, 

JSW, and Tata Steel Limited (Tata). On 

February 2, 2009, the Department 

initiated the review. See Initiation. On 

May 4, 2009, petitioner withdrew its 

request with respect to Essar, Ispat, and 

JSW. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise subject to this order 

is certain hot-rolled carbon-quality steel 

products of a rectangular shape, of a 

width of 0.5 inch or greater, neither 

clad, plated, nor coated with metal and 

whether or not painted, varnished, or 

coated with plastics or other nonmetallic substances, in coils (whether or 

not in successively superimposed 

layers), regardless of thickness, and in 

straight lengths, of a thickness of less 

than 4.75 mm and of a width measuring 

at least 10 times the thickness. 

Universal mill plate (i.e., flat-rolled 

products rolled on four faces or in a 

closed box pass, or a width exceeding 

150 mm, but not exceeding 1250 mm, 

and of a thickness of not less than 4 

mm, not in coils and without patterns 

in relief) of a thickness not less than 4.0 

mm is not included within the scope of 

this order. 

Specifically included in the scope of 

this order are vacuum degassed, fully 

stabilized (commonly referred to as 

interstitial-free (IF) steels, high-strength 

low-alloy (HSLA) steels, and the 

substrate for motor lamination steels. IF 

steels are recognized as low-carbon 

steels with micro-alloying levels of 

elements such as titanium or niobium 

(also commonly referred to as 

columbium), or both, added to stabilize 

carbon and nitrogen elements. HSLA 

steels are recognized as steels with 

micro-alloying levels of elements such 

as chromium, copper, niobium, 

vanadium, and molybdenum. The 

substrate for motor lamination steels 

contains micro-alloying levels of 

elements such as silicon and aluminum. 

Steel products included in the scope 

of this order, regardless of definitions in 

the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTS), are products in 

which: i) iron predominates, by weight, 

over each of the other contained 

elements; ii) the carbon content is two 

percent or less, by weight; and iii) none 

of the elements listed below exceeds the 

quantity, by weight, respectively 

indicated: 

1.80 percent of manganese, or 

2.25 percent of silicon, or 

1.00 percent of copper, or 

0.50 percent of aluminum, or 

1.25 percent of chromium, or 

0.30 percent of cobalt, or 

0.40 percent of lead, or 

1.25 percent of nickel, or 

0.30 percent of tungsten, or 

0.10 percent of molybdenum, or 

0.10 percent of niobium, or 

0.15 percent of vanadium, or 

0.15 percent of zirconium. 

All products that meet the physical 

and chemical description provided 

above are within the scope of this order 

unless otherwise excluded. The 

following products, by way of example, 

are outside or specifically excluded 

from the scope of this order. 

• Alloy hot-rolled steel products in 

which at least one of the chemical 

elements exceeds those listed above 

(including, e.g., ASTM 

specifications A543, A387, A514, 

A517, A506). 

• SAE/AISI grades of series 2300 and 

higher. 

• Ball bearings steels, as defined in 

the HTS. 

• Tool steels, as defined in the HTS. 

• Silico-manganese (as defined in the 

HTS) or silicon electrical steel with 

a silicon level exceeding 2.25 

percent. 

• ASTM specifications A710 and 

A736. 

• USS Abrasion-resistant steels (USS 

AR 400, USS AR 500). 

• All products (proprietary or 

otherwise) based on an alloy ASTM 

specification (sample specifications: 

ASTM A506, A507). 

• Non-rectangular shapes, not in coils, 

which are the result of having been 

processed by cutting or stamping 

and which have assumed the 

character of articles or products 

classified outside chapter 72 of the 

HTS.

Partial Rescission of Review 

Under 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the 

Department will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if a party that requested a review 

withdraws the request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. 

The Initiation was published on 

February 2, 2009. Petitioner submitted a 

timely request for withdrawal on May 4, 

2009. No other party requested 

administrative reviews of Essar, Ispat, 

and JSW. Therefore, we are rescinding, 

in part, this review of the countervailing 

duty order of certain hot-rolled carbon 

steel flat products from India with 

regard to Essar, Ispat, and JSW. This 

review will continue with respect to 

Tata. 

The Department will issue 

appropriate assessment instructions 

directly to U.S. Customs and Border 

Patrol (CBP) 15 days after publication of 

this notice. The Department will direct 

CBP to assess countervailing duties at 

the cash deposit rate in effect on the 

date of entry for entries during the 

period January 1, 2008, through 

December 31, 2008. 

This notice is in accordance with 

section 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
