Final Results of Full Sunset Review: Malleable Cast Iron Pipe
Fittings From Brazil

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

ACTION: Notice of final results of full sunset review: malleable cast
iron pipe fittings from brazil.

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

SUMMARY: On July 29, 1999, the Department of Commerce (``the
Department'') published a notice of preliminary results of the full
sunset review of the antidumping duty order on malleable cast iron pipe
fittings from Brazil (64 FR 41089) pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''). We provided interested
parties an opportunity to comment on our preliminary results. We did
not receive comments from any interested party. As a result of this
review, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty
order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott E. Smith or Melissa G. Skinner,
Office of Policy for Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
6397 or (202) 482-1560, respectively.

Effective Date: November 30, 1999.

Statute and Regulations

This review was conducted pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of
the Act. The Department's procedures for the conduct of sunset reviews
are set forth in Procedures for Conducting Five-year (``Sunset'')
Reviews of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders, 63 FR 13516
(March 20, 1998) (``Sunset Regulations'') and in 19 CFR Part 351 (1998)
in general. Guidance on methodological or analytical issues relevant to
the Department's conduct of sunset reviews is set forth in the
Department's Policy Bulletin 98:3--Policies Regarding the Conduct of
Five-year (``Sunset'') Reviews of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Orders; Policy Bulletin, 63 FR 18871 (April 16, 1998) (``Sunset Policy
Bulletin'').

Scope

Imports covered by this order are shipments of certain malleable
cast iron pipe fittings, other than grooved, from Brazil. These
products are currently classifiable under item numbers 7307.19.90.30,
7307.19.90.60, and 7307.19.90.80 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTSUS). The HTSUS item numbers are provided for
convenience and customs purposes. The written description remains
dispositive.

Background

On July 29, 1999, the Department issued the Preliminary Results of
Full Sunset Review: Malleable Cast Iron Pipe Fittings from Brazil (64
FR 41089) (``Preliminary Results''). In our preliminary results, we
found that revocation of the order would likely result in the
continuation or recurrence of dumping. In addition, we preliminarily
determined that the magnitude of the margin of dumping likely to
prevail if the order were revoked was 5.64 percent for Industria de
Fundicao Tupy, S.A. (``Tupy'') as well as for all other producers and/
or exporters. No interested party commented on our Preliminary Results.

Final Results of Review

As a result of this review, the Department finds that revocation of
the antidumping duty order would be likely to lead to continuation or
recurrence of dumping for the reasons set forth in our Preliminary
Results of review. Furthermore, for the reasons set forth in our
Preliminary Results of review, we find that the margins calculated in
the original investigation are probative of the behavior of Brazilian
producers/exporters of the subject merchandise. As such, the Department
will report to the Commission the company-specific and all others rates
from the original investigation listed below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Margin
Manufacturer/exporter (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tupy......................................................... 5.64
All Other Producers/Exporters................................ 5.64
------------------------------------------------------------------------

This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 of the Department's regulations.
Timely notification of return/destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable
violation.
This five-year (``sunset'') review and notice are in accordance
with sections 751(c), 752, and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Dated: November 18, 1999.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
