Notice of Final Results of Antidumping
Duty Changed Circumstances Review:
Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire
Rod from Canada
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) has determined that
Mittal Canada Inc. (Mittal) is the
successor–in-interest to Ispat Sidebec
Inc. (Ispat) and, as a result, should be
accorded the same treatment previously
accorded to Ispat in regard to the
antidumping order on steel wire rod
from Canada as of the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 8, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Daniel O’Brien or Ashleigh Batton, at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 14, 2005, Mittal requested
that the Department determine that it
had become the successor–in-interest of
Ispat, pursuant to section 751(b) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.216 and 351.221(c)(3).
On March 9, 2005, the Department
initiated this administrative review. See
Notice of Initiation of Changed
Circumstances Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review: Carbon and
Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from
Canada, 70 FR 11612 (Initiation Notice).
On March 25, 2005, the Department
issued Ispat/Mittal a questionnaire
requesting further details on Mittal’s
successor–in-interest claims. The
company’s response was received by the
Department on April 1, 2005.
On May 3, 2005, the Department
published the preliminary results of this
changed circumstances review and
08JYN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 130 / Friday, July 8, 2005 / Notices
preliminarily determined that Mittal is
the successor–in-interest to Ispat and
should receive Ispat’s cash deposit rate
of 3.86 percent. See Preliminary Results
of Changed Circumstances
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review: Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel
Wire Rod from Canada, 70 FR 22845
(May 3, 2005) (Preliminary Results). In
the Preliminary Results, we stated that
interested parties could request a
hearing or submit case briefs and/or
written comments to the Department no
later than 30 days after publication of
the Preliminary Results notice in the
Federal Register, and submit rebuttal
briefs, limited to the issues raised in the
case briefs, seven days subsequent to the
due date of the case briefs. We did not
receive any hearing requests or
comments on the Preliminary Results.
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to this order
is certain hot–rolled products of carbon
steel and alloy steel, in coils, of
approximately round cross section, 5.00
mm or more, but less than 19.00 mm, in
solid cross-sectional diameter.
Specifically excluded are steel
products possessing the above–noted
physical characteristics and meeting the
HTSUS definitions for (a) Stainless
steel; (b) tool steel; (c) high nickel steel;
(d) ball bearing steel; and (e) concrete
reinforcing bars and rods. Also excluded
are (f) free machining steel products
(i.e., products that contain by weight
one or more of the following elements:
0.03 percent or more of lead, 0.05
percent or more of bismuth, 0.08
percent or more of sulfur, more than
0.04 percent of phosphorus, more than
0.05 percent of selenium, or more than
0.01 percent of tellurium).
Also excluded from the scope are
1080 grade tire cord quality wire rod
and 1080 grade tire bead quality wire
rod. This grade 1080 tire cord quality
rod is defined as: (i) Grade 1080 tire
cord quality wire rod measuring 5.0 mm
or more but not more than 6.0 mm in
cross-sectional diameter; (ii) with an
average partial decarburization of no
more than 70 microns in depth

having no non–deformable inclusions
greater than 20 microns and no
deformable inclusions greater than 35
microns; (iv) having a carbon
segregation per heat average of 3.0 or
better using European Method NFA 04–
114; (v) having a surface quality with no
surface defects of a length greater than
0.15 mm; (vi) capable of being drawn to
a diameter of 0.30 mm or less with 3 or

VerDate jul<14>2003 16:32 Jul 07, 2005 Jkt 205001
0.78 percent or more of carbon, (2) less
than 0.01 percent of aluminum, (3)
0.040 percent or less, in the aggregate,
of phosphorus and sulfur, (4) 0.006
percent or less of nitrogen, and (5) not
more than 0.15 percent, in the aggregate,
of copper, nickel and chromium.
This grade 1080 tire bead quality rod
is defined as: (i) Grade 1080 tire bead
quality wire rod measuring 5.5 mm or
more but not more than 7.0 mm in
cross-sectional diameter; (ii) with an
average partial decarburization of no
more than 70 microns in depth
(maximum individual 200 microns); (iii)
having no non–deformable inclusions
greater than 20 microns and no
deformable inclusions greater than 35
microns; (iv) having a carbon
segregation per heat average of 3.0 or
better using European Method NFA 04–
114; (v) having a surface quality with no
surface defects of a length greater than
0.2 mm; (vi) capable of being drawn to
a diameter of 0.78 mm or larger with 0.5
or fewer breaks per ton; and (vii)
containing by weight the following
elements in the proportions shown: (1)
0.78 percent or more of carbon, (2) less
than 0.01 percent of soluble aluminum,
(3) 0.040 percent or less, in the
aggregate, of phosphorus and sulfur, (4)
0.008 percent or less of nitrogen, and (5)
either not more than 0.15 percent, in the
aggregate, of copper, nickel and
chromium (if chromium is not
specified), or not more than 0.10 percent
in the aggregate of copper and nickel
and a chromium content of 0.24 to 0.30
percent (if chromium is specified).
For purposes of the grade 1080 tire
cord quality wire rod and the grade
1080 tire bead quality wire rod, an
inclusion will be considered to be
deformable if its ratio of length
(measured along the axis - that is, the
direction of rolling - of the rod) over
thickness (measured on the same
inclusion in a direction perpendicular
to the axis of the rod) is equal to or
greater than three. The size of an
inclusion for purposes of the 20 microns
and 35 microns limitations is the
measurement of the largest dimension
observed on a longitudinal section
measured in a direction perpendicular
to the axis of the rod. This measurement
methodology applies only to inclusions
on certain grade 1080 tire cord quality
wire rod and certain grade 1080 tire
bead quality wire rod that are entered,
or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after July 24, 2003.
The designation of the products as
‘‘tire cord quality’’ or ‘‘tire bead quality’’
indicates the acceptability of the
product for use in the production of tire
cord, tire bead, or wire for use in other
rubber reinforcement applications such
PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\08JYN1.SGM
39485
as hose wire. These quality designations
are presumed to indicate that these
products are being used in tire cord, tire
bead, and other rubber reinforcement
applications, and such merchandise
intended for the tire cord, tire bead, or
other rubber reinforcement applications
is not included in the scope. However,
should petitioners or other interested
parties provide a reasonable basis to
believe or suspect that there exists a
pattern of importation of such products
for other than those applications, end–
use certification for the importation of
such products may be required. Under
such circumstances, only the importers
of record would normally be required to
certify the end use of the imported
merchandise.
All products meeting the physical
description of subject merchandise that
are not specifically excluded are
included in this scope.
The products under the order are
currently classifiable under subheadings
7213.91.3010, 7213.91.3090,
7213.91.4510, 7213.91.4590,

the HTSUS subheadings are provided
for convenience and customs purposes,
the written description of the scope of
the order is dispositive.
Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Review
Based on the information provided by
Mittal, and the fact that the Department
did not receive any comments during
the comment period following the
preliminary results of this review, the
Department hereby determines Mittal is
the successor–in-interest to Ispat for
antidumping duty cash deposit
purposes.
Instructions to the U.S. Customs and
Border Protection
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
suspend liquidation of all shipments of
the subject merchandise produced and
exported by Mittal entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption, on or after the publication
date of this notice at 3.86 percent (i.e.
Ispat’s cash deposit rate). This deposit
rate shall remain in effect until
publication of the final results of the
ongoing administrative review, in which
Mittal/Ispat is participating.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APOs) of their
08JYN1

SUMMARY: On December 1, 2004, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated sunset reviews of Department conducted an expedited
the antidumping duty orders on certain
carbon steel butt–weld pipe fittings
(‘‘pipe fittings’’) from Brazil, Taiwan,
Japan, Thailand, and the People’s
Republic of China pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’). On the basis of a
notice of intent to participate and
adequate substantive responses filed on
behalf of domestic interested parties and
inadequate response from respondent
interested parties, the Department
conducted expedited (120–day) sunset
reviews. As a result of these sunset
reviews, the Department finds that
revocation of the antidumping duty
orders would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping.
The dumping margins are identified in
the Final Results of Review section of
this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background:
On December 1, 2004, the Department
published the notice of initiation of the
second sunset reviews of the
antidumping duty orders on pipe
Thailand, and the People’s Republic of
China pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Act. See Initiation of Five–Year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 69 FR 69891
(December 1, 2004). The Department
received the Notice of Intent to
Participate from Trinity Industries, Inc.1
(‘‘Trinity’’); Weldbend Corp.
(‘‘Weldbend’’); Tubing Forgings of
America, Inc.; and Mills Iron Works,
Inc. (‘‘TFA/Mills Iron’’) (collectively
‘‘the domestic interested parties’’),
within the deadline specified in section
351.218(d)(1)(i) of the Department’s
domestic interested parties claimed
interested party status under section
771(9)(C) of the Act, as manufacturers of
a domestic–like product in the United
substantive responses from the domestic
interested parties within the 30–day
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no
responses from the respondent
interested parties. As a result, pursuant
to section 751(c)(5)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the
(120–day) sunset review of this order.
Scope of the Orders:
The products covered by these orders
are pipe fittings from Brazil, Taiwan,
Japan, Thailand, and China. Pipe fittings
from Brazil, Taiwan, and Japan are
defined as carbon steel butt–weld pipe
fittings, other than couplings, under 14
inches in diameter, whether finished or
unfinished form, that have been formed
in the shape of elbows, tees, reducer,
caps, etc., and, if forged, have been
advanced after forging. These
advancements may include any one or
more of the following: coining, heat
treatment, shot blasting, grinding, die
stamping or painting. Such merchandise
was classifiable under Tariff Schedules
of the United States Annotated
1 Ladish Co., Inc. was a petitioner in the
investigation. Trinity acquired the assets of Ladish
relating to the production of carbon steel butt-weld
pipe fittings in 1997. See Notice of Intent to
PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703
(‘‘TSUSA’’) item number 610.8800.
These imports are currently classifiable
under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) item
number 7307.93.30.
Pipe fittings from Thailand and China
are defined as carbon steel butt–weld
pipe fittings, having an inside diameter
of less than 14 inches, imported in
either finished or unfinished form.
These formed or forged pipe fittings are
used to join section in piping systems
where conditions require permanent,
welded connections, as distinguished
from fittings based on other fastening
methods (e.g., threaded grooved, or
bolted fittings). These imports are
currently classifiable under the HTSUS
item number 7307.93.30.
The TSUSA and HTSUS subheadings
are provided for convenience and
customs purposes. The written
description remains dispositive as to the
scope of the product coverage for each
of the orders.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in these reviews are
addressed in the ‘‘Issues and Decision
Memorandum’’ (‘‘Decision Memo’’)
from Edward Yang, Senior Director,
China/NME Office, Import
Administration, to Joseph A. Spetrini,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, dated June 29, 2005,
which is hereby adopted by this notice.
The issues discussed in the Decision
Memo include the likelihood of
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and the magnitude of the margins likely
to prevail if the orders were to be
revoked. Parties can find a complete
discussion of all issues raised in these
reviews and the corresponding
recommendations in this public
memorandum which is on file in room
B–099 of the main Commerce Building.
In addition, a complete version of the
Decision Memo can be accessed directly
on the Web at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn,

paper copy and electronic version of the
Decision Memo are identical in content.
Final Results of Reviews
We determine that revocation of the
antidumping duty orders on pipe
fittings from Brazil, Taiwan, Japan,
Thailand, and the People’s Republic of
China would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at the following weighted–average
percentage margins:
