AGENCY:
Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY:
As a result of the respective determinations by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that revocation of the antidumping duty (AD) order on ferrovanadium from the Republic of Korea (Korea) would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, Commerce is publishing this notice of continuation of the AD order.
DATES:
Applicable November 29, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 15, 2017, Commerce published the AD order on ferrovanadium from Korea. 1 On April 1, 2022, Commerce initiated, 2 and the ITC instituted, 3 this sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

2 ? See Initiation of Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews, 87 FR 19069 (April 1, 2022).
3 ? See Ferrovanadium from South Korea; Institution of a Five-Year Review, 87 FR 19129 (April 1, 2022).
As a result of its review, Commerce determined, pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the Act, that revocation of the Order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping. Commerce, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail should the Order be revoked. 4 On November 21, 2022, the ITC published its determination that revocation of the Order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act. 5

U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD cash deposits at the rate in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise.
The effective date of the continuation of the Order will be the date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next five-year (sunset) review of this Order not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of continuation.
