SUMMARY:
On July 20, 2015, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) instructed the Department of Commerce (Department) to implement its determinations under section 129 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA) regarding the antidumping duty (AD) investigations on aluminum extrusions from the People's Republic of China (PRC); certain circular welded carbon quality steel line pipe from the PRC; certain kitchen appliance shelving and racks (kitchen racks) from the PRC; certain magnesia carbon bricks from the PRC; certain oil country tubular goods from the PRC; certain potassium phosphate salts from the PRC; certain steel grating from the PRC; certain tow behind lawn groomers and certain parts thereof from the PRC; circular welded
( printed page 45185)
austenitic stainless pressure pipe from the PRC; citric acid and certain citrate salts from the PRC; lightweight thermal paper from the PRC; narrow woven ribbons with woven selvedge from the PRC; prestressed concrete steel wire strand from the PRC; raw flexible magnets from the PRC; and sodium nitrite from the PRC; and regarding the AD administrative reviews of certain new pneumatic off-the-road tires from the PRC and kitchen racks from the PRC, which renders them not inconsistent with the World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement findings in the Appellate Body report on
United States—Countervailing and Anti-dumping Measures on Certain Products from China,
WT/DS449/AB/R (July 7, 2014), and the panel report, as modified by the Appellate Body report, WT/DS449/R (March 27, 2014), adopted by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body on July 22, 2014 (DS 449). The Department issued its final determinations in these section 129 proceedings on June 26, 2015 and July 10, 2015.[1]
The Department is now implementing these final determinations.
DATES:
Effective Date:
July 20, 2015.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lisa Wang or Erin Begnal, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5673 or (202) 482-1442.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On January 28, 2015, the Department informed parties that it was initiating proceedings under section 129 of the URAA to implement the findings adopted by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body in DS 449 with respect to the above-referenced AD investigations and administrative reviews concerning the Department's imposition of ADs calculated on the basis of the methodology for nonmarket economy countries prescribed by section 773(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act), as amended, concurrently with the imposition of countervailing duties upon the same products without having assessed whether so-called “double remedies,” (
i.e.,
the offsetting of the same subsidy twice) arose from such concurrent duties. Although the AD investigation on drill pipe from the PRC (A-570-965) was also subject to the dispute settlement findings in DS 449, the Department did not initiate a section 129 proceeding regarding the drill pipe from the PRC AD investigation because the AD order on drill pipe from the PRC was revoked following a negative injury determination by the U.S. International Trade Commission.[2]
On February 10, 2015, and April 14, 2015, the Department issued questionnaires to the mandatory respondents and accepted voluntary respondents in the underlying investigations and administrative reviews, concerning the issue of double remedies. None of the respondents in the underlying investigations or administrative reviews subject to this notice responded to the double remedies questionnaires. In the preliminary determinations, because no party responded to the Department's requests for information in these section 129 proceedings, we preliminarily determined that, without the requested information, there is no basis for making an adjustment for potential overlapping remedies under section 777A(f) of the Act. Between April 15, 2015, and May 28, 2015, the Department issued the preliminary determinations and provided interested parties an opportunity to comment. Following the comment period, the Department issued its final determinations for the section 129 proceedings on June 26, 2015 and July 10, 2015, which were unchanged from the preliminary determinations.
In its July 20, 2015 letter, the USTR notified the Department that, consistent with section 129(b)(3) of the URAA, consultations with the Department and the appropriate congressional committees with respect to the June 26, 2015, and July 10, 2015 determinations have been completed. Also on July 20, 2015, in accordance with section 129(b)(4) of the URAA, the USTR directed the Department to implement these determinations.
Nature of the Proceedings
Section 129 of the URAA governs the nature and effect of determinations issued by the Department to implement findings by WTO dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body.
Specifically, section 129(b)(2) of the URAA provides that “notwithstanding any provision of the Tariff Act of 1930,” upon a written request from the USTR, the Department shall issue a determination that would render its actions not inconsistent with an adverse finding of a WTO panel or the Appellate Body.[3]
The Statement of Administrative Action, U.R.A.A., H. Doc. 316, Vol. 1, 103d Cong. (1994) (SAA), variously refers to such a determination by the Department as a “new,” “second,” and “different” determination.[4]
After consulting with the Department and the appropriate congressional committees, the USTR may direct the Department to implement, in whole or in part, the new determination made under section 129
( printed page 45186)
of the URAA.[5]
Pursuant to section 129(c) of the URAA, the new determination shall apply with respect to unliquidated entries of the subject merchandise that are entered or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after the date on which the USTR directs the Department to implement the new determination.[6]
The new determination is subject to judicial review, separate and apart from judicial review of the Department's original determination.[7]
Final Determinations: Analysis of Comments Received
To the extent that issues were raised by interested parties during the period for comment following the issuance of the preliminary determinations, those issues are addressed in the respective final determinations.
