The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) has issued the final results of the antidumping investigation on light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from Turkey. DOC has determined that the following weighted-average dumping margins exist for the following Turkish exporters and producers of light-walled rectangular pipe:

Guven Boru ve Profil San. ve Ticaret Ltd.; Ozborsan Boru Sanayi ve
Ticaret and Onur Metal; and Ozdemir Boru Profil Sanayi ve Ticaret Ltd. = 34.89% (rate based on adverse facts available)

MMZ Onur Boru Profil Uretim Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. = 6.12%

All Other Rate = 6.12%

As a result of DOC's affirmative finding, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) will determine within 45 days whether these imports are causing material injury, or threat of material injury, to an industry in the United States. If the ITC determines that material injury, or threat of injury does not exist, the proceeding will be terminated and all securities posted will be refunded or canceled. If the ITC determines that injury does exist, DOC will issue an antidumping order directing Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials to assess antidumping duties on all imports of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the effective date of the suspension of liquidation.
