SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On May 21, 2001, the Department published its preliminary results in the Federal Register (see ``Preliminary Results'') preliminarily finding Hyundai Steel Company (``Hyundai Hysco'') to be the successor- in-interest to Hyundai Pipe Company, Ltd. (``HDP''). No comments were received regarding these findings. Scope of the Review The products covered by this order are oil country tubular goods (``OCTG''), hollow steel products of circular cross-section, including only oil well casing and tubing, of iron (other than cast iron) or steel (both carbon and alloy), whether seamless or welded, whether or not conforming to American Petroleum Institute (``API'') or non-API specifications, whether finished or unfinished (including green tubes and limited service OCTG products). This scope does not cover casing or tubing pipe containing 10.5 percent or more of chromium, or drill pipe. The products subject to this order are currently classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') under item numbers: 7304.29.10.10, 7304.29.10.20, 7304.29.10.30, 7304.29.10.40, 7304.29.10.50, 7304.29.10.60, 7304.29.10.80, 7304.29.20.10, 7304.29.20.20, 7304.29.20.30, 7304.29.20.40, 7304.29.20.50, 7304.29.20.60, 7304.29.20.80, 7304.29.30.10, 7304.29.30.20, 7304.29.30.30, 7304.29.30.40, 7304.29.30.50, 7304.29.30.60, 7304.29.30.80, 7304.29.40.10, 7304.29.40.20, 7304.29.40.30, 7304.29.40.40, 7304.29.40.50, 7304.29.40.60, 7304.29.40.80, 7304.29.50.15, 7304.29.50.30, 7304.29.50.45, 7304.29.50.60, 7304.29.50.75, 7304.29.60.15, 7304.29.60.30, 7304.29.60.45, 7304.29.60.60, 7304.29.60.75, 7305.20.20.00, 7305.20.40.00, 7305.20.60.00, 7305.20.80.00, 7306.20.10.30, 7306.20.10.90, 7306.20.20.00, 7306.20.30.00, 7306.20.40.00, 7306.20.60.10, 7306.20.60.50, 7306.20.80.10, and 7306.20.80.50. Although the HTSUS item numbers are provided for convenience and Customs purposes, the written description remains dispositive of the scope of this review. Successorship and Final Results of Review Because we received no comments on the preliminary results, for the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results and based on the facts on the record, we find Hyundai Hysco to be the successor-in-interest to HDP for purposes of this antidumping duty order. Therefore, Hyundai Hysco will be excluded from the antidumping duty order on OCTG from the Republic of Korea and, thus, cash deposits will not [[Page 45279]] be required on its entries of subject merchandise. This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Failure to timely notify the Department in writing of the return/destruction of APO material is a sanctionable violation. This determination is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(b)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 353.221(c)(4). Dated: August 15, 2001. Bernard T. Carreau, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc. 01-21712 Filed 8-27-01; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-DS-P
