Final results of sunset reviews on pipes from various countries
On July 1, 2005, the US Department of Commerce (DOC) initiated the second sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on certain circular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes from India, Taiwan, Thailand and Turkey, and circular welded non-alloy steel pipes imported from Brazil, South Korea, Mexico, and Taiwan. On the basis of adequate responses from domestic interested parties and inadequate responses from respondent interested parties, the DOC conducted expedited (120-day) sunset reviews. As a result of these reviews, the DOC determined that the revocation of the antidumping duty orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping. The dumping margins for the subject countries are as follows:Countries/Producers Weighted-average margin India Tata Iron and Steel Company, Ltd...................7.08% All Others.........................................7.08% Taiwan Kao Hsing Chang....................................9.70% Tai Feng..........................................43.70% Yieh Hsing........................................38.50% All Others.........................................9.70% Thailand Saha Thai Steel Pipe Co...........................15.69% Thai Steel Pipe Industry Co.......................15.60% All Others........................................15.67% Turkey Borusan Ithalat Ihracat ve Dagitim.................1.26% Erkboru Profil Sanayi ve Ticaret..................23.12% Mannesmann-Sumerbank Boru Endustrisi..............23.12% All Others........................................14.74% Brazil Perisco Pizzamiglio S.A..........................103.38% All Others.......................................103.38% South Korea Hyundai Steel Pipe Co., Ltd........................6.86% Korea Steel Pipe Co., Ltd..........................6.21% Masan Steel Tube Works Co., Ltd...................11.63% Pusan Steel Pipe Co., Ltd..........................4.91% All Others.........................................6.37% Mexico HYLSA, S.A. de C.V................................32.62% All Others........................................32.62% Taiwan Kao Hsing Chang Iron and Steel Corp...............19.46% Yieh Hsing Enterprise Co., Ltd....................27.65% All Others........................................23.56%
