On May 6, the US Department of Commerce (DOC) partially rescinded its administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain circular welded non-alloy steel pipe from Mexico for the period November 1, 2007, to October 31, 2008 with respect to four of the eight companies for which the review was initiated.
On December 24, 2008, the Department initiated a review of the eight companies from Mexico for which an administrative review was requested by U.S. Steel. On March 24, 2009, U.S. Steel timely withdrew its requests for review of the following companies: Niples del Norte, S.A. de C.V., Productos Laminados de Aceros, S.A. de C.V., Tuberias Procasa S.A. de C.V., and PYTCO S.A de C.V.
Since U.S. Steel was the only party to request administrative reviews of these companies, the DOC has determined to rescind the review with regard to Niples del Norte, S.A. de C.V., Productos Laminados de Aceros, S.A. de C.V., Tuberias Procarsa S.A. de C.V., and PYTCO S.A de C.V.
