AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: February 21, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Irene Darzenta or James Terpstra,
Office of Antidumping Investigations, Import Administration,
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th

Scope of Orders

The product covered by these orders is stainless steel bar (SSB).
SSB means articles of stainless steel in straight lengths that have
been either hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn, cold-rolled or
otherwise cold-finished, or ground, having a uniform solid cross
section along their whole length in the shape of circles, segments of
circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles, hexagons,
octagons or other convex polygons. SSB includes cold-finished SSBs that
are turned or ground in straight lengths, whether produced from hot-
rolled bar or from straightened and cut rod or wire, and reinforcing
bars that have indentations, ribs, grooves, or other deformations
produced during the rolling process.
Except as specified above, the term does not include stainless
steel semi-finished products, cut length flat-rolled products (i.e.,
cut length rolled products which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness have
a width measuring at least 10 times the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or
more in thickness having a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at
least twice the thickness), wire (i.e., cold-formed products in coils,
of any uniform solid cross section along their whole length, which do
not conform to the definition of flat-rolled products), and angles,
shapes and sections.
The SSB subject to these orders is currently classifiable under
subheadings 7222.10.0005, 7222.10.0050, 7222.20.0005, 7222.20.0045,
7222.20.0075, and 7222.30.0000 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope
of these orders is dispositive.

Antidumping Duty Orders

In accordance with section 735(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (``the Act''), on December 19, 1994, the Department of Commerce
(``the Department'') made its final determinations that SSB from
Brazil, India and Japan was being sold at less than fair value (59 FR
66914, 66915, 66930 (Brazil, India and Japan, respectively) December
28, 1994). On February 10, 1995, the International Trade Commission
notified the Department of its final determinations, pursuant to
section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, that an industry in the United
States is materially injured by reason of imports of the subject
merchandise.
Therefore, all unliquidated entries of SSB from Brazil, India and
Japan entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after
August 4, 1994, which is the date on which the Department published its
notices of preliminary determination in the Federal Register, are
liable for the assessment of antidumping duties.
In accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, the Department
will direct Customs officers to assess, upon further advice by the
administering authority, antidumping duties equal to the amount by
which the foreign market value of the merchandise exceeds the United
States price for all relevant entries of SSB from Brazil, India and
Japan. Customs officers must require, at the same time as importers
would normally deposit estimated duties on this merchandise, a cash
deposit equal to the estimated weighted-average antidumping duty
margins as noted below. The ``All Others'' rate applies to all
exporters of subject merchandise not specifically listed below.
The ad valorem weighted-average dumping margins are as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margin
Manufacturer/Producer/Exporter percentage
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brazil:
Acos Villares, S.A........................................ 19.43
All Others................................................ 19.43
India:
Grand Foundry, Ltd........................................ 3.87
Mukand, Ltd............................................... 21.02

------------------------------------------------------------------------

This notice constitutes the antidumping duty orders with respect to
SSB from Brazil, India and Japan, pursuant to section 736(a) of the
Act. Interested parties may contact the [[Page 9662]] Central Records
Unit, Room B-099 of the Main Commerce Building, for copies of an
updated list of antidumping orders currently in effect.

Act and 19 CFR 353.21.
