US DOC issues results of “changed circumstances” reviews of AD orders against pipe and tube from Mexico

The US Department of Commerce announced Tuesday the final results of its “changed circumstances” reviews of the antidumping (AD) orders against standard pipe and light-walled rectangular (LWR) pipe and tube from Mexico.

The purpose of these reviews was to determine whether Termium Mexico S.A. de C.V. is the successor-in-interest to Hysla S.A. De C.V. for the purposes of the AD law in place against Hysla.

The DOC determined that Ternium Mexico is, indeed, the successor-in-interest to Hysla and that, accordingly, Ternium Mexico should receive the same treatment under the AD orders as Hysla.

The following dumping deposit rates for Hysla will become deposit rates for Ternium Mexico: 10.38 percent for standard pipe and 3.76 percent for LWR pipe and tube.
