Steel Threaded Rod from the People's Republic of China:
Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigation
AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
EFFECTIVE DATE: April 1, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Juanita H. Chen, AD/CVD Operations,
China/NME Group, SEC Office, Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: 202-482-1904.
INITIATION OF INVESTIGATION:
The Petition
On March 5, 2008, the Department of Commerce (``Department'')
received a petition concerning imports of steel threaded rod from the
People's Republic of China (``PRC''), filed in proper form by Vulcan
Threaded Products, Inc. (``Petitioner''). See Petition for the
Imposition of Antidumping Duties on Certain Steel Threaded Rod from the
People's Republic of China, filed March 5, 2008 (``Petition''). On
March 7, and March 14, 2008, the Department issued requests for
additional information and clarification of certain areas of the
Petition. Based on the Department's requests, Petitioner filed
additional information on March 12, 2008 (``Supplement to the
Petition''), and on March 18, 2008 (``Second Supplement'').
In accordance with section 732(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (``Act''), Petitioner alleges that imports of steel threaded
rod from the PRC are being, or are likely to be, sold in the United
States at less than fair value (``LTFV''), within the meaning of
section 731 of the Act, and that the domestic industry is materially
injured or threatened with material injury by reason of such imports.
The Department finds that Petitioner may file this Petition on
behalf of the domestic industry because Petitioner is an interested
party as defined in section 771(9)(C) of the Act, and has demonstrated
sufficient industry support with respect to the antidumping duty
investigation. See ``Determination of Industry Support for the
Petition'' section, infra.
[[Page 17319]]
Period of Investigation
The period of investigation (``POI'') is July 1, 2007, through
December 31, 2007. See 19 C.F.R. 351.204(b)(1).
Scope of Investigation
The merchandise covered by this investigation is steel threaded
rod. Steel threaded rod is certain threaded rod, bar, or studs, of
carbon quality steel, having a solid, circular cross section, of any
diameter, in any straight length, that have been forged, turned, cold-
drawn, cold-rolled, machine straightened, or otherwise cold-finished,
and into which threaded grooves have been applied. In addition, the
steel threaded rod, bar, or studs subject to this investigation are
non-headed and threaded along greater than 25 percent of their total
length. A variety of finishes or coatings, such as plain oil finish as
a temporary rust protectant, zinc coating (i.e., galvanized, whether by
electroplating or hot-dipping), paint, and other similar finishes and
coatings, may be applied to the merchandise.
Included in the scope of this investigation are steel threaded rod,
bar, or studs, in which: (1) iron predominates, by weight, over each of
the other contained elements; (2) the carbon content is 2 percent or
less, by weight; and (3) none of the elements listed below exceeds the
quantity, by weight, respectively indicated:
1.80 percent of manganese, or
1.50 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
0.012 percent of boron, or
0.10 percent of molybdenum, or
0.10 percent of niobium, or
0.41 percent of titanium, or
0.15 percent of vanadium, or
0.15 percent of zirconium.
Steel threaded rod is currently classifiable under subheading
7318.15.5060 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(``HTSUS''). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise is
dispositive.
Excluded from the scope of the investigation are: (a) threaded rod,
bar, or studs which are threaded only on one or both ends and the
threading covers 25 percent or less of the total length; and (b)
threaded rod, bar, or studs made to American Society for Testing and
Materials (``ASTM'') A193 Grade B7, ASTM A193 Grade B7M, ASTM A193
Grade B16, or ASTM A320 Grade L7.
Comments on Scope of Investigation
During review of the Petition, the Department discussed the scope
with Petitioner to ensure that the scope is an accurate reflection of
the products for which the domestic industry is seeking relief. In
addition, as discussed in the preamble to the Department's regulations,
the Department is setting aside a period of time for interested parties
to raise issues regarding product coverage. See Antidumping Duties;
Countervailing Duties; Final Rule, 62 FR 27296, 27323 (May 19, 1997).
The Department encourages all interested parties to submit such
comments to the Department by April 15, 2008. Comments should be
addressed to Import Administration's APO/Dockets Unit, Room 1870, U.S.
Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW,
Washington, DC 20230, attention Juanita Chen, room 4003. The period of
scope consultations is intended to provide the Department with ample
opportunity to consider all comments and to consult with parties prior
to the issuance of the preliminary determination.
Comments on Product Characteristics for Antidumping Duty Questionnaire
The Department is requesting comments from interested parties
regarding the appropriate physical characteristics of steel threaded
rod to be reported in response to the Department's antidumping
questionnaire. This information will be used to identify the key
physical characteristics of the subject merchandise in order for any
respondents to report more accurately the relevant factors of
production, as well as develop appropriate product reporting criteria,
in accordance with the Department's non-market economy (``NME'')
methodology, as described in the ``Normal Value'' section, infra.
Interested parties may provide any information or comments that
they believe are relevant to the development of an accurate listing of
physical characteristics. Specifically, interested parties may provide
comments as to which characteristics are appropriate to use as: 1)
general product characteristics; and 2) product reporting criteria. The
Department notes that it is not always appropriate to use all product
characteristics as product reporting criteria. While there may be some
physical product characteristics that manufacturers use to describe
steel threaded rod, it may be that only a select few product
characteristics take into account meaningful physical characteristics
of steel threaded rod.
In order to consider the suggestions of interested parties in
developing and issuing the antidumping duty questionnaire, the
Department must receive non-proprietary comments at the above-
referenced address by April 15, 2008, and receive rebuttal comments by
April 25, 2008.
Determination of Industry Support for the Petition
Section 732(b)(1) of the Act requires that a petition be filed on
behalf of the domestic industry. Section 732(c)(4)(A) of the Act
provides that a petition meets this requirement if the domestic
producers or workers who support the petition account for: (i) at least
25 percent of the total production of the domestic like product; and
(ii) more than 50 percent of the production of the domestic like
product produced by that portion of the industry expressing support
for, or opposition to, the petition. Moreover, section 732(c)(4)(D) of
the Act provides that, if the petition does not establish support of
domestic producers or workers accounting for more than 50 percent of
the total production of the domestic like product, the Department
shall: (i) poll the industry or rely on other information in order to
determine if there is support for the petition, as required by
subparagraph (A), or (ii) determine industry support using a
statistically valid sampling method.
Section 771(4)(A) of the Act defines the ``industry'' as the
producers as a whole of a domestic like product. Thus, to determine
whether a petition has the requisite industry support, the statute
directs the Department to look to producers and workers who produce the
domestic like product. The International Trade Commission (``ITC''),
which is responsible for determining whether ``the domestic industry''
has been injured, must also determine what constitutes a domestic like
product in order to define the industry. While both the Department and
the ITC must apply the same statutory definition regarding the domestic
like product (section 771(10) of the Act), they do so for different
purposes and pursuant to a separate and distinct authority. In
addition, the Department's determination is subject to limitations of
time and information. Although this may result in different definitions
of the like product, such differences do not render the decision of
either agency contrary to law. See USEC, Inc. v. United States, 132 F.
Supp. 2d 1, 8 (CIT 2001), citing Algoma Steel Corp. Ltd. v. United
States, 688 F. Supp. 639, 644
[[Page 17320]]
(CIT 1988), aff'd 865 F.2d 240 (Fed. Cir. 1989), cert. denied 492 U.S.
919 (1989).
Section 771(10) of the Act defines the domestic like product as ``a
product which is like, or in the absence of like, most similar in
characteristics and uses with, the article subject to an investigation
under this subtitle.'' Thus, the reference point from which the
domestic like product analysis begins is ``the article subject to an
investigation'' (i.e., the class or kind of merchandise to be
investigated, which normally will be the scope as defined in the
petition).
With regard to the domestic like product, Petitioner does not offer
a definition of domestic like product distinct from the scope of the
investigation. Based on the Department's analysis of the information
submitted on the record, the Department has determined that steel
threaded rod constitutes a single domestic like product and the
Department has analyzed industry support in terms of that domestic like
product. For a discussion of the domestic like product analysis in this
case, see ``Antidumping Duty Investigation Initiation Checklist: Steel
Threaded Rod from the People's Republic of China'' (``Initiation
Checklist''), at Attachment II (Industry Support), on file in the
Central Records Unit, Room 1117 of the main Department of Commerce
building.
The Department's review of the data provided in the Petition,
supplemental submissions, and other information readily available to
the Department indicates that Petitioner has established industry
support. First, the Petition establishes support from domestic
producers (or workers) accounting for more than 50 percent of the total
production of the domestic like product and, as such, the Department is
not required to take further action in order to evaluate industry
support (e.g., polling). See Section 732(c)(4)(D) of the Act. Second,
the domestic producers have met the statutory criteria for industry
support under 732(c)(4)(A)(i) because the domestic producers (or
workers) who support the Petition account for at least 25 percent of
the total production of the domestic like product. Finally, the
domestic producers have met the statutory criteria for industry support
under 732(c)(4)(A)(ii) because the domestic producers (or workers) who
support the Petition account for more than 50 percent of the production
of the domestic like product produced by that portion of the industry
expressing support for, or opposition to, the Petition. Accordingly,
the Department determines that the Petition was filed on behalf of the
domestic industry within the meaning of section 732(b)(1) of the Act.
See Initiation Checklist, at Attachment II.
The Department finds that Petitioner filed the Petition on behalf
of the domestic industry because it is an interested party as defined
in section 771(9)(C) of the Act and it has demonstrated sufficient
industry support with respect to the antidumping investigation that it
is requesting the Department initiate. See Initiation Checklist, at
Attachment II.
Allegations and Evidence of Material Retardation and of Material Injury
and Causation
Petitioner alleges that the U.S. industry producing the domestic
like product is being materially injured by reason of the imports of
the subject merchandise sold at less than normal value (``NV'').
Petitioner contends that the industry's injured condition is
illustrated by the reduced market share, reduced production, and
capacity utilization, reduced shipments, increased inventory,
underselling and price depressing and suppressing effects, lost revenue
and sales, reduced employment, a decline in financial performance, and
an increase in import penetration. The Department has assessed the
allegations and supporting evidence regarding material injury, threat
of material injury, and causation, and the Department determines that
these allegations are properly supported by adequate evidence and meet
the statutory requirements for initiation. See Initiation Checklist, at
Attachment III.
Allegation of Sales at Less Than Fair Value
The following is a description of the allegation of sales at LTFV
upon which the Department based its decision to initiate this
investigation of imports of steel threaded rod from the PRC. The
sources of data for the deductions and adjustments relating to the U.S.
price and the factors of production are also discussed in the
checklist. See Initiation Checklist. Should the need arise to use any
of this information as facts available under section 776 of the Act in
the preliminary or final determinations, the Department will reexamine
the information and revise the margin calculations, if appropriate.
Export Price
Petitioner relied on 24 price quotes on three steel threaded rod
products from the PRC offered for sale to the U.S. customer during the
POI. See Petition, at 30 and Exhibits 22 and 23; Supplement to the
Petition, at Exhibit G; Second Supplement at Exhibit C. Petitioner
deducted from the prices the costs associated with exporting and
delivering the product, including ocean freight, U.S. inland freight
costs, and distributor markup. See Initiation Checklist. Petitioner
also deducted discounts, when applicable. See Initiation Checklist.
Petitioner calculated the freight charges and distributor mark-up based
on its own industry knowledge and experience. See Petition, at Exhibits
22; Supplement to the Petition, at Exhibit G; Second Supplement, at
Exhibit C.
Normal Value
Petitioner notes that the Department's long-standing treatment of
the PRC as an NME country remains in effect until revoked by the
Department, and notes that no such revocation determination has been
made to date. See Petition, at 27. The Department has previously
examined the PRC's market status and determined that NME status should
continue for the PRC. See Memorandum from the Office of Policy to David
M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, regarding
The People's Republic of China Status as a Non-Market Economy, dated
May 15, 2006 (available online at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/download /prc-
nme-status/prc-nme-status-memo.pdf). In addition, in recent
investigations, the Department has continued to determine that the PRC
is an NME country. See Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair
Value and Partial Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances:
Certain Polyester Staple Fiber from the People's Republic of China, 72
FR 19690 (April 19, 2007); Final Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value: Certain Activated Carbon from the People's Republic of
China, 72 FR 9508 (March 2, 2007).
In accordance with section 771(18)(C)(i) of the Act, the
presumption of NME status remains in effect until revoked by the
Department. The presumption of NME status for the PRC has not been
revoked by the Department and, therefore, remains in effect for
purposes of the initiation of this investigation. Accordingly, the NV
of the product is appropriately based on factors of production valued
in a surrogate market economy country, in accordance with section
773(c) of the Act. In the course of this investigation, all parties
will have the opportunity to provide relevant information related to
the issues of the PRC's NME status and the granting of separate rates
to individual exporters.
Petitioner argues that India is the appropriate surrogate country
for the
[[Page 17321]]
PRC, because it is a market-economy country at a comparable level of
economic development, its surrogate data is available and reliable, and
it is a significant producer of steel threaded rod. See Petition, at
27-28. Petitioner asserts that other potential surrogate countries are
not known manufacturers of steel threaded rod. See Petition, at 28;
Initiation Checklist. Based on the information provided by Petitioner,
the Department believes that the use of India as a surrogate country is
appropriate for purposes of initiation. However, after initiation of
the investigation, interested parties will have the opportunity to
submit comments regarding surrogate country selection and, pursuant to
19 C.F.R. 351.301(c)(3)(i), will be provided an opportunity to submit
publicly available information to value factors of production within 40
days after the date of publication of the preliminary determination.
Petitioner calculated NVs and dumping margins for each of the U.S.
prices, discussed above, using the Department's NME methodology as
required by 19 C.F.R. 351.202(b)(7)(i)(C) and 19 C.F.R. 351.408.
Petitioner calculated NVs based on its own consumption rates for
producing steel threaded rod in 2007. See Initiation Checklist.
Petitioner states that its production experience is representative of
the production process used in the PRC because all of the material
inputs and processing must be virtually identical, and are unlikely to
be materially different for a Chinese producer of steel threaded rod.
See Supplement to the Petition, at 9.
Petitioner valued the factors of production on reasonably
available, public surrogate country data, including India statistics
from the World Trade Atlas, public information from the website of the
Joint Plant Committee, an Indian institution that collects data on the
Indian iron and steel industry, and Key World Energy Statistics 2003,
published by the International Energy Agency, as adjusted and used by
the Department in the twelfth administrative review of fresh garlic
from the PRC. See Initiation Checklist. Where Petitioner was unable to
find input prices contemporaneous with the POI, Petitioner adjusted for
inflation using the wholesale price index for India, as published in
``International Financial Statistics'' by the International Monetary
Fund. See Petition, at 29 and Exhibit 20. For purposes of initiation,
the Department determines that the surrogate values used by Petitioner
are reasonably available and, thus, acceptable for purposes of
initiation.
Petitioner based factory overhead expenses, selling, general and
administrative expenses, and profit, on data from Lakshmi Precision
Screws Limited (``Lakshmi''), an Indian manufacturer of fasteners, for
the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007. See Petition, at Exhibit 21. The
Department has previously relied on Lakshmi's data for other
antidumping investigation initiations and finds Petitioner's use of
Lakshmi's financial ratios appropriate for purposes of initiation. See
Initiation Checklist; see also Steel Wire Garment Hangers from the PRC:
AD Investigation Initiation Checklist (September 10, 2007); and Steel
Nails from the PRC: AD Investigation Initiation Checklist (July 9,
2007). However, the Department has made minor modifications, as
appropriate, to the surrogate financial ratios as calculated by
Petitioner. See Initiation Checklist, at Attachment V.
Fair Value Comparisons
Based on the data provided by Petitioner, as adjusted by the
Department, there is reason to believe that imports of steel threaded
rod from the PRC are being, or are likely to be, sold in the United
States at LTFV. Based on comparisons of export price to NV, calculated
in accordance with section 773(c) of the Act, the estimated dumping
margins for steel threaded rod range from 36.17 percent to 659.26
percent. See Initiation Checklist, at Attachment V.
Initiation of Antidumping Investigations
Based upon the examination of the Petition on steel threaded rod
from the PRC, the Department finds that the Petition meets the
requirements of section 732 of the Act. Therefore, the Department is
initiating an antidumping duty investigation to determine whether
imports of steel threaded rod from the PRC are being, or are likely to
be, sold in the United States at LTFV. In accordance with section
733(b)(1)(A) of the Act, unless postponed, the Department will make its
preliminary determination no later than 140 days after the date of this
initiation.
Separate Rates
In order to obtain separate-rate status in NME investigations,
exporters and producers must submit a separate-rate status application.
See Policy Bulletin 05.1: Separate-Rates Practice and Application of
Combination Rates in Antidumping Investigations involving Non-Market
Economy Countries (April 5, 2005)(``Separate Rates/Combination Rates
Bulletin''), available on the Department's website at http://
ia.ita.doc.gov/policy/bull05-1.pdf. The specific requirements for
submitting the separate-rate application in this investigation are
outlined in detail in the application itself, available on the
Department's website at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/ia-highlights-and-
news.html on the date of publication of this initiation notice in the
Federal Register. The separate rate-application will be due on June 2,
2008.
NME Respondent Selection and Quantity and Value Questionnaire
The Department will request quantity and value information from all
known exporters and producers identified in the Petition and Supplement
to the Petition. The quantity and value data received from NME
exporters/producers will be used as the basis to select the mandatory
respondents.
The Department requires that the respondents submit a response to
both the quantity and value questionnaire and the separate-rate
application by the respective deadlines in order to receive
consideration for separate-rate status. See Circular Welded Austenitic
Stainless Pressure Pipe from the People's Republic of China: Initiation
of Antidumping Duty Investigation, 73 FR 10221, 10225 (February 26,
2008); and Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigation: Certain Artist
Canvas From the People's Republic of China, 70 FR 21996, 21999 (April
28, 2005). Appendix I of this notice contains the quantity and value
questionnaire that must be submitted by all NME exporters/producers no
later than April 22, 2008. In addition, the Department will post the
quantity and value questionnaire along with the filing instructions on
the Import Administration website, at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/ia-
highlights-and-news.html. The Department will send the quantity and
value questionnaire to those PRC companies identified in the Petition,
at Exhibit 6, and in the Supplement to the Petition, at Exhibit B.
Use of Combination Rates in an NME Investigation
The Department will calculate combination rates for certain
respondents that are eligible for a separate rate in this
investigation. The Separate Rates/Combination Rates Bulletin states:
{w{time} hile continuing the practice of assigning separate rates
only to exporters, all separate rates that the Department will now
assign in its NME investigations will be specific to those producers
that supplied the exporter during the period of investigation. Note,
however, that
[[Page 17322]]
one rate is calculated for the exporter and all of the producers which
supplied subject merchandise to it during the period of investigation.
This practice applies both to mandatory respondents receiving an
individually calculated separate rate as well as the pool of non-
investigated firms receiving the weighted-average of the individually
calculated rates. This practice is referred to as the application of
``combination rates'' because such rates apply to specific combinations
of exporters and one or more producers. The cash-deposit rate assigned
to an exporter will apply only to merchandise both exported by the firm
in question and produced by a firm that supplied the exporter during
the period of investigation.
See Separate Rates/Combination Rates Bulletin, at 6.
Distribution of Copies of the Petition
In accordance with section 732(b)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 C.F.R.
351.202(f), copies of the public version of the Petition have been
provided to the representatives of the Government of the PRC. Because
of the particularly large number of exporters and producers identified
in the Petition, the Department considers the service of the public
version of the Petition to the foreign exporters/producers satisfied by
the delivery of a public version to the Government of the PRC,
consistent with 19 C.F.R. 351.203(c)(2).
U.S. International Trade Commission Notification
The Department has notified the ITC of its initiation, as required
by section 732(d) of the Act.
Preliminary Determination by the International Trade Commission
The ITC will preliminarily determine, no later than April 21, 2008,
whether there is a reasonable indication that the U.S. industry is
materially injured or threatened with material injury by imports of
steel threaded rod from the PRC. A negative ITC determination with
respect to the investigation will result in the investigation being
terminated; otherwise, this investigation will proceed according to
statutory and regulatory time limits.
This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 777(i) of
the Act.
Dated: March 25, 2008.
David M. Spooner,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
Appendix I
Where it is not practicable to examine all known exporters/producers of
subject merchandise, section 777A(c)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended, permits us to investigate 1) a sample of exporters, producers,
or types of products that is statistically valid based on the
information available at the time of selection, or 2) exporters and
producers accounting for the largest volume and value of the subject
merchandise that can reasonably be examined.
In the chart below, please provide the total quantity and total value
of all your sales of merchandise covered by the scope of this
investigation (see ``Scope of Investigation'' section of this notice),
produced in the PRC, and exported/shipped to the United States during
the period July 1, 2007, through December 31, 2007.
