The US International Trade Commission (ITC) made its final determinations Friday in the expedited sunset review of the antidumping (AD) orders on carbon and alloy seamless standard, line and pressure pipe from Japan and Romania.

As expected, the ITC made affirmative determinations with respect to the orders on both countries. The ITC's vote was unanimous with respect to Japan (six to zero). Two commissioners voted in the negative with respect to small diameter pipe from Romania, but the other four commissioners voted to continue the order against Romania.

Accordingly, the AD orders on carbon and alloy seamless standard, line and pressure pipe from Japan and Romania will remain in effect for a further period of five years.

The seamless pipes subject to this order are currently classifiable under the subheadings 7304.10.10.30, 7304.10.10.45, 7304.10.10.60, 7304.10.50.50, 7304.19.10.30, 7304.19.10.45, 7304.19.10.60, 7304.19.50.50, 7304.31.60.10, 7304.31.60.50, 7304.39.00.04, 7304.39.00.06, 7304.39.00.08, 7304.39.00.36, 7304.39.00.40, 7304.39.00.44, 7304.39.00.48, 7304.39.00.52, 7304.39.00.56, 7304.39.00.62, 7304.39.00.68, 7304.39.00.72, 7304.51.50.15, 7304.51.50.45, 7304.51.50.60, 7304.59.20.30, 7304.59.20.55, 7304.59.20.60, 7304.59.20.70, 7304.59.60.00, 7304.59.80.30, 7304.59.80.35, 7304.59.80.40, 7304.59.80.45, 7304.59.80.50, 7304.59.80.55, 7304.59.80.60, 7304.59.80.65 and 7304.59.80.70 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
