    Background

    On April 8, 2022, Commerce published in the Federal Register the final results of the 2019 administrative review of the CVD order on cold-rolled steel from Korea.[3] This notice inadvertently listed “Dongbu USA” and “POSCO International Corp. (POSCO International Corporation)” in “Appendix II: List of Non-Selected Companies.” Because Dongbu USA is a U.S.-based company, it should not have been included in “Appendix II: List of Non-Selected Companies.” [4] Additionally, because POSCO International Corp. (POSCO International Corporation) is a trading company and its entries are subject to the rate of the producer, it should not have been included in “Appendix II: List of Non-Selected Companies.” [5]

    Notification to Interested Parties

    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5).

    Footnotes

    1.  While Dongbu Steel Co., Ltd. and Dongbu Incheon Steel Co., Ltd. are non-selected respondents, because each received a calculated rate in the prior review ( i.e., Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from the Republic of Korea: Final Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review; 2018, 86 FR 40465 (July 28, 2021)), Commerce has found it appropriate to apply that calculated rate to Dongbu Steel Co., Ltd. and Dongbu Incheon Steel Co., Ltd.
