The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is correcting the final determinations of anti-circumvention inquiries on the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on certain corrosion-resistant steel products (CORE) from the Republic of Korea (Korea).
Applicable January 8, 2020.
Chien-Min Yang, AD/CVD Operations, Office VII, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5484.
On December 26, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register the affirmative final determinations of anti-circumvention inquiries [1] related to the antidumping duty and countervailing duty orders on CORE from Korea.[2] The published Federal Register notice and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum (IDM) at page eight erroneously stated that the following five companies were not eligible for the certification process with regard to hot-rolled steel (HRS) and cold-rolled steel (CRS) from Korea: [3] (1) Dai Thien Loc Corporation; (2) Formosa Ha Tinh Corporation; (3) Hoa Sen Group; (4) Ton Dong A Corp.; and (5) Vina One Steel Manufacturing. However, as noted in the IDM at page seventeen, Commerce has determined that these five companies are in fact eligible for the certification process. Therefore, we are hereby correcting the Federal Register notice and page eight of the accompanying IDM to make clear that these five companies are eligible to participate in the certification process. Consistent with this correction, we intend to send instructions to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection without listing these companies as ineligible to participate in the certification process. No other changes have been made to the affirmative final determinations.
Dated: December 31, 2019.
Jeffrey I. Kessler,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
