Carbon Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings from Taiwan; Preliminary Results of Administrative Review

Resumo

In response to a request from the U.S. Butt-Weld Fittings Committee, petitioner in this proceeding, the Department of Commerce (the Department) has conducted an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings from Taiwan. The review covers four manufacturers/exporters of the subject merchandise to the United States for the period December 1, 1992, through November 30, 1993. We have preliminarily determined that sales have been made below the foreign market value (FMV). If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results of administrative review, we will instruct U.S. Customs to assess antidumping duties equal to the difference between the United States price (USP) and FMV. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.
