5See the Ministerial Error Memorandum for a 

complete discussion of these alleged errors. 

6See Final Results, 82 FR at 32680. 

7Consistent with the Final Results, for the nonselected companies, we calculated a rate by weightaveraging the calculated subsidy rates of the two 

mandatory respondents (i.e., Canadian Solar and 

Changzhou Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd. and its 

cross-owned affiliates) using their publicly-ranged 

sales data for exports of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. 

8See Final Results, 82 FR at 32680. Cross-owned 

affiliates are: Canadian Solar Inc.; Canadian Solar 

Manufacturing (Luoyang) Inc.; CSI Cells Co., Ltd.; 

CSI Solar Power (China) Inc.; CSI Solartronics 

(Changshu) Co., Ltd.; CSI Solar Technologies Inc.; 

and CSI Solar Manufacture Inc. 

9 Id. Cross-owned affiliates are: Trina Solar 

Limited; Trina Solar (Changzhou) Science & 

Technology Co., Ltd.; Yancheng Trina Solar Energy 

Technology Co., Ltd.; Changzhou Trina Solar 

Yabang Energy Co., Ltd.; Hubei Trina Solar Energy 

Co., Ltd.; Turpan Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd.; and 

Changzhou Trina PV Ribbon Materials Co., Ltd. 

10The CIT issued the preliminary injunctions in 

case numbers 17–00207, 17–00198, 17–00220, and 

17–00221, respectively. 

‘‘Preferential Policy Lending Program,’’ 

and in calculating the inland freight 

values when constructing Canadian 

Solar’s benchmark for programs 

regarding the provision of inputs for less 

than adequate remuneration.5

In accordance with section 751(h) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are 

amending the Final Results.6

Specifically, we are amending the net 

subsidy rates for Canadian Solar and for 

the 17 companies for which a review 

was requested that were not selected as 

mandatory company respondents (i.e., 

the non-selected companies).7 The 

revised net subsidies rates are provided 

below.

errors, we determine that that the

Assessment Rates/Cash Deposits 

Normally, the Department would 

issue appropriate assessment 

instructions to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) 15 days after the date 

of publication of these amended final 

results of review, to liquidate shipments 

of subject merchandise produced and/or 

exported by the companies listed above 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after January 1, 

2014, through December 31, 2014. 

However, on August 3, 8, and 17, 2017, 

and on September 8, 2017, the U.S. 

Court of International Trade (CIT) 

preliminarily enjoined liquidation of 

certain entries that are subject to the 

Final Results.10 Accordingly, the 

Department will not instruct CBP to 

assess countervailing duties on those 

enjoined entries pending resolution of 

the associated litigation. 

The Department intends to instruct 

CBP to collect cash deposits of 

estimated countervailing duties, in the 

amounts shown above for the 

companies listed above, on shipments of 

subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after July 17, 2017, 

which is the date of publication of the 

Final Results. For all non-reviewed 

firms, we will instruct CBP to collect 

cash deposits at the most-recent 

company specific or all-others rate 

applicable to the company, as 

appropriate. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice also serves a reminder to 

parties that are subject to administrative 

protective order (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the return or 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which 

continues to government business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return/destruction of 

APO materials, or conversion to judicial 

protective order, is hereby requested. 

Failure to comply with the regulations 

and the terms of an APO is a 

sanctionable violation. 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed for these amended final 

results to interested parties within five 

business days of the date of the 

publication of this notice in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results in accordance with sections 

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

CFR 351.224(e).

Certain Circular Welded Non-Alloy 

Steel Pipe From Brazil, Mexico, the

Certain Circular Welded Carbon Steel 

Pipes and Tubes From Taiwan: Final 

Results of Expedited Fourth Sunset 

Reviews of the Antidumping Duty 

Orders 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance,

DATES: Applicable October 6, 2017. 

SUMMARY: As a result of these sunset 

reviews, the Department of Commerce 

(the Department) finds that revocation 

of the antidumping duty orders on 

certain circular welded non-alloy steel 

pipe from Brazil, Mexico, the Republic 

of Korea, and Taiwan and certain 

circular welded carbon steel pipes and 

tubes from Taiwan would be likely to 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

dumping. The magnitude of the 

dumping margins likely to prevail are 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of Sunset 

Review’’ section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On May 7, 1984, the Department 

published the AD Order on certain 

circular welded carbon steel pipes and 

tubes from Taiwan.1 On November 2, 

1992, the Department published the AD 

Orders on imports of certain circular 

welded non-alloy steel pipe from Brazil, 

the Republic of Korea (Korea), Mexico, 

and Taiwan, and an amendment to the 

final determination of sales at less than 

fair value for certain circular welded 

non-alloy steel pipe from Korea.2 On 

July 17, 2012, the Department published 

the notice of continuation of these AD 

Orders.3

On June 2, 2017, the Department 

published the notice of initiation of the 

sunset reviews of the AD Orders on 

circular welded non-alloy steel pipe 

from Brazil, Mexico, Korea, and certain 

circular welded carbon steel pipes and 

tubes from Taiwan.4 The AD Order on 

certain circular welded non-alloy steel 

pipe from Taiwan was inadvertently not 

included in the initiation notice. On 

June 16, 2017, the Department 

published a correction notice.5

On June 30, 2017, the Department 

received complete substantive responses 

to the notices of initiation from 

domestic interested parties within the 

30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(i). The Department 

received no substantive responses from 

respondent interested parties. As a 

result, the Department conducted an 

expedited, i.e., 120-day, sunset review 

of these AD Orders pursuant to section 

751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2). 

Scope of the Orders 

Certain Circular Welded Non-Alloy 

Steel Pipe From Brazil 

The products covered by these orders 

are circular welded non-alloy steel 

pipes and tubes, of circular crosssection, not more than 406.4 mm (16 

inches) in outside diameter, regardless 

of wall thickness, surface finish (black, 

galvanized, or painted), or end finish 

(plain end, beveled end, threaded, or 

threaded and coupled). These pipes and 

tubes are generally known as standard 

pipes and tubes are intended for the low 

pressure conveyance of water, steam, 

natural gas, and other liquids and gases 

in plumbing and heating systems, air 

conditioning units, automatic sprinkler 

systems, and other related uses, and 

generally meet ASTM A–53 

specifications. Standard pipe may also 

be used for light load-bearing 

applications, such as for fence tubing, 

and as structural pipe tubing used for 

framing and support members for 

reconstruction or load-bearing purposes 

in the construction, shipbuilding, 

trucking, farm equipment, and related 

industries. Unfinished conduit pipe is 

also included in these orders. All carbon 

steel pipes and tubes within the 

physical description outlined above are 

included within the scope of these 

orders, except line pipe, oil country 

tubular goods, boiler tubing, mechanical 

tubing, pipe and tube hollows for 

redraws, finished scaffolding, and 

finished conduit. Standard pipe that is 

dual or triple certified/stenciled that 

enters the U.S. as line pipe of a kind 

used for oil or gas pipelines is also not 

included in these orders. The Issues and 

Decision Memorandum, which is hereby 

adopted by this notice, provides a full 

description of the scope of the order.6

discussion of all issues raised in this 

review and the corresponding 

recommendations in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum, which is on file 

electronically via Enforcement and

We determine that the weighted-average 

dumping margins likely to prevail are 

up to the following percentages:
