Porcelain-on-Steel Cooking Ware From the People's Republic of 
China: Continuation of Antidumping Duty Order

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

DATES: Effective Date: March 14, 2011.
SUMMARY: As a result of the determinations by the Department of 
Commerce (``Department'') and the International Trade Commission 
(``ITC'') that revocation of the antidumping duty order on porcelain-
on-steel cooking ware (``POS cookware'') from the People's Republic of 
China (``PRC'') would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of 
dumping and material injury to an industry in the United States, the 
Department is publishing a notice of continuation of the antidumping 
duty order.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Toni Dach, AD/CVD Operations, Import 
Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 
20230; telephone: (202) 482-1655.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    On October 1, 2010, the Department published the notice of 
initiation of the sunset review of the antidumping duty order on POS 
cookware from the PRC pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (``the Act''). See Initiation of Five-Year 
(``Sunset'') Review, 75 FR 60731 (October 1, 2010).
    As a result of its review, the Department determined that 
revocation of the antidumping duty order on POS cookware from the PRC 
would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and, 
therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins likely to 
prevail should the order be revoked. See Porcelain-on-Steel Cooking 
Ware from the People's Republic of China: Final Results of the 
Expedited Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order, 76 FR 7534 
(February 10, 2011).
    On February 16, 2011, the ITC determined, pursuant to section 
751(c)(1) of the Act, that revocation of the antidumping duty order on 
POS cookware from the PRC would likely lead to a continuation or 
recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States 
within a reasonably foreseeable future. See Porcelain-on-Steel Cooking 
Ware From China, 76 FR 12369 (March 7, 2011), and USITC Publication 
4216 (February 2011), Porcelain-on-Steel Cooking Ware from China, 
Investigation No. 731-TA-298 (Third Review).

ware from the PRC, including tea kettles, which do not have self-
contained electric heating elements. All of the foregoing are 
constructed of steel and are enameled or glazed with vitreous glasses. 
The merchandise is currently classifiable under the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') subheading 7323.94.00. The 
HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes. The 
written description of the scope remains dispositive.

Continuation of the Order

    As a result of these determinations by the Department and the ITC 
that

revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to a 
continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an 
industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the 
Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the antidumping 
order on POS cookware from the PRC. U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
will continue to collect antidumping duty cash deposits at the rates 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 sections 751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the Act, the Department 
intends to initiate the next five-year review of the order not later 
than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of 
continuation.
    This five-year (sunset) review and this notice are in accordance 
with section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section 
777(i)(1) of the Act.
