We received no comments from interested parties nor was a public hearing requested. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ See Light-Walled Rectangular Pipe and Tube from Mexico: Initiation and Expedited Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, 82 FR 54322 (November 17, 2017) (Initiation and Expedited Preliminary Results). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to this order is certain welded carbon- quality light-walled steel pipe and tube, of rectangular (including square) cross section, having a wall thickness of less than 4 mm. The term carbon-quality steel includes both carbon steel and alloy steel which contains only small amounts of alloying elements. Specifically, the term carbon-quality includes products in which none of the elements listed below exceeds the quantity by weight respectively indicated: 1.80 percent of manganese, or 2.25 percent of silicon, or 1.00 percent of copper, or 0.50 percent of aluminum, or 1.25 percent of chromium, or 0.30 percent of cobalt, or 0.40 percent of lead, or 1.25 percent of nickel, or 0.30 percent of tungsten, or 0.10 percent of molybdenum, or 0.10 percent of niobium, or 0.15 percent vanadium, or 0.15 percent of zirconium.

The welded carbon-quality rectangular pipe and tube subject to this order is currently classified under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 7306.61.50.00 and 7306.61.70.60. While HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of this order is dispositive. Final Results of the Changed Circumstances Review For the reasons stated in the Initiation and Expedited Preliminary Results, and because we received no comments from interested parties, Commerce continues to find that Perfiles is the successor-in-interest to Perfiles y Herrajes. As a result of this determination, we find that Perfiles should receive the antidumping cash deposit rate applicable to Perfiles y Herrajes. Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced or exported by Perfiles and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the Federal Register at 0.00 percent, which is the current antidumping duty cash-deposit rate for Perfiles y Herrajes.\2\ This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \2\ Perfiles y Herrajes was assigned a 0.00 percent margin in the 2013-2014 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on LWRPT from Mexico.
