the Department terminated the 

suspension agreement and issued an 

antidumping duty order. See 

Termination of the Suspension 

Agreement on Solid Fertilizer Grade 

Ammonium Nitrate From the Russian 

Federation and Notice of Antidumping 

Duty Order, 76 FR 23569 (April 27, 

2011). 

As a result of its review, the 

Department determined that termination 

of the antidumping duty order on 

ammonium nitrate from Russia would 

likely lead to a continuation or 

recurrence of dumping and notified the 

ITC of the magnitude of the margins 

likely to prevail, should the order be 

terminated. See Solid Fertilizer Grade 

Ammonium Nitrate From the Russian 

Federation; Final Results of the 

Expedited Sunset Review of 

Antidumping Duty Order, 76 FR 39847 

(July 7, 2011). 

On August 4, 2011, pursuant to 

section 751(c) of the Act, the ITC 

published its determination that 

termination of the order on ammonium 

nitrate from Russia would be likely to 

lead to continuation or recurrence of 

material injury to an industry in the 

United States within a reasonably 

foreseeable time. See Ammonium 

Nitrate from Russian, 76 FR 47238 

(August 4, 2011). Therefore, pursuant to 

section 351.218(f)(4) of the Department’s 

regulations, the Department is 

publishing this notice of the 

continuation of the order on ammonium 

nitrate from Russia. 

Scope 

The products covered by the order on 

ammonium nitrate from Russia include 

solid, fertilizer grade ammonium nitrate 

products, whether prilled, granular or in 

other solid form, with or without 

additives or coating, and with a bulk 

density equal to or greater than 53 

pounds per cubic foot. Specifically 

excluded from this scope is solid 

ammonium nitrate with a bulk density 

less than 53 pounds per cubic foot 

(commonly referred to as industrial or 

explosive grade ammonium nitrate). The 

merchandise subject to the order is 

classified in the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States 

(‘‘HTSUS’’) at subheading 

3102.30.00.00. Although the HTSUS 

subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

within the scope of the order is 

dispositive. 

Continuation 

As a result of the respective 

determinations by the Department and 

the ITC that termination of the order on 

ammonium nitrate from Russia would 

likely lead to 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 gives notice of the 

continuation of the order on ammonium 

nitrate from Russia. U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection will continue to 

collect cash deposits at the rates in 

effect at the time of entry for all imports 

of subject merchandise. The effective 

date of continuation will be the date of 

publication in the Federal Register of 

this Continuation Notice. Pursuant to 

sections 751(c)(2) of the Act, the 

Department intends to initiate the next 

five-year sunset review of the order on 

ammonium nitrate from Russia not later 

than July 2016. 

This five-year (sunset) review and 

notice are in accordance with section 

751(c) of the Act and published 

pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils 

From Germany, Italy, and Mexico: 

Revocation of Antidumping Duty 

Orders 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On June 2, 2010, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) initiated its second sunset 

reviews of the antidumping duty orders 

on stainless steel sheet and strip (SSSS) 

in coils from Germany, Italy, and 

Mexico. Pursuant to section 751(c) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act), the U.S. International Trade 

Commission (ITC) determined that 

revocation of the existing antidumping 

duty orders on SSSS in coils from 

Germany, Italy, and Mexico would not 

be likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of material injury to an 

industry in the United States within a 

reasonably foreseeable time. Therefore, 

pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act, 

and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(1)(iii), the 

Department is revoking the antidumping 

duty orders on SSSS in coils from 

Germany, Italy, and Mexico. 

DATES: Effective Date: July 25, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 8, 1999, the Department 

published its final results of sales at less 

than fair value on SSSS in coils from 

Germany,1 Italy,2 and Mexico.3 On June 

2, 2010, the Department initiated its 

second five-year sunset reviews of the 

antidumping duty orders on SSSS in 

coils from Germany, Italy, and Mexico. 

See Initiation of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) 

Review, 75 FR 30777 (June 2, 2010). 

As a result of these sunset reviews, 

the Department determined that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

orders on SSSS in coils from Germany, 

Italy, and Mexico would be likely to 

lead to the continuation or recurrence of 

dumping. See Certain Stainless Steel 

Sheet and Strip in Coils From Germany,

Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils From 

Italy: Final Results of the Full Five-Year 

(‘‘Sunset’’) Review of the Antidumping 

Duty Order, 76 FR 25670 (May 5, 2011). 

The Department notified the ITC of the 

magnitude of the margins likely to 

prevail should the antidumping duty 

orders be revoked. 

On August 2, 2011, the ITC published 

its determination that, pursuant to 

section 751(c) of the Act, revocation of 

the antidumping duty orders on SSSS in 

coils from Germany, Italy, and Mexico 

would not be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States within a reasonably foreseeable 

time. See Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip

Determination 

As a result of the determination by the 

ITC that revocation of the antidumping 

duty orders is not likely to lead to the 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States, the Department, pursuant to 

section 751(d) of the Act, is revoking the 

antidumping duty orders on SSSS in 

coils from Germany, Italy, and Mexico. 

Pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the effective 

date of revocation is July 25, 2010 (i.e., 

the fifth anniversary of the effective date 

of publication in the Federal Register of 

the previous continuation notice of 

these orders).9 The Department will 

notify U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection to terminate suspension of 

liquidation and collection of cash 

deposits on entries of the subject 

merchandise entered or withdrawn from 

warehouse on or after July 25, 2010. 

Entries of subject merchandise prior to 

the effective date of revocation will 

continue to be subject to suspension of 

liquidation and antidumping duty 

deposit requirements. The Department 

will complete any pending 

administrative reviews of these orders. 

These five-year sunset reviews and 

notice are in accordance with section 

751(d)(2) of the Act and published 

pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.
