SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
After Commerce initiated the sunset review? 1 of the Order, 2 pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), domestic interested parties? 3 timely submitted complete notices of intent to participate in, 4 and adequate substantive responses regarding, the review. 5 The domestic interested parties claimed domestic interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as producers of the domestic like product in the United States. 6 Commerce did not receive a substantive response from any respondent interested party, nor was a hearing requested. On June 21, 2024, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission that it did not receive adequate substantive responses from respondent interested parties. 7 As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the Order.
