The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes from Thailand, in response to requests from Allied Tube and Conduit Corporation (Allied Tube) and Wheatland Tube Company(Wheatland) (collectively, petitioners). This review covers the period March 1, 2008 through February 28, 2009. We preliminarily determine that U.S. sales of subject merchandise have been made by Saha Thai Steel Pipe (Public) Company, Ltd. (Saha Thai) below normal value (NV). If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties based on the difference between the export price (EP) and the NV. We are also rescinding the administrative review of Pacific Pipe Company Limited (Pacific Pipe). We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on entries of this merchandise produced by Pacific Pipe at the cash deposit rate required at the time of entry. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. See the "Preliminary Results of Review" section of this notice.
