SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 1, 2023, Commerce published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

opportunity to request an administrative 

review of the AD order on PC strand 

from Ukraine.1 On June 30, 2023, Insteel 

Wire Products Company, Sumiden Wire 

Products Corporation, and Wire Mesh 

Corporation (collectively, the 

petitioners) submitted a timely request 

that Commerce conduct an 

administrative review.2

On August 3, 2023, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of initiation of administrative 

review with respect to imports of PC 

strand exported and/or produced by 

PJSC Stalkanat, in accordance with 

section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i).3 On August 7, 2023, 

PJSC Stalkanat filed a no shipments 

certification for the POR.4 On August 

17, 2023, we placed on the record U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

data for entries of PC strand from 

Ukraine during the POR, and invited 

interested parties to comment.5 On 

August 24, 2023, PJSC Stalkanat 

submitted comments on the CBP data. 

No interested party submitted rebuttal 

comments to Commerce. 

On September 21, 2023, Commerce 

notified all interested parties of its 

intent to rescind the instant review, in 

whole, because there were no eligible 

reviewable, suspended entries of subject 

merchandise by PJSC Stalkanat during 

the POR and invited interested parties 

to comment.6 PJSC Stalkanat submitted 

comments in favor of recission.7 No 

other interested party submitted 

comments to Commerce. 

Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is 

Commerce’s practice to rescind an 

administrative review of an AD order 

when there are no reviewable entries of 

subject merchandise during the POR for 

which liquidation is suspended.8

Normally, upon completion of an 

administrative review, the suspended 

entries are liquidated at the AD 

assessment rate calculated for the 

review period.9 Therefore, for an 

administrative review to be conducted, 

there must be at least one reviewable, 

suspended entry that Commerce can 

instruct CBP to liquidate at the AD 

assessment rate calculated for the 

review period.10 As noted above, there 

were no eligible reviewable entries of 

subject merchandise for PJSC Stalkanat 

during the POR. Accordingly, in the 

absence of suspended entries of subject 

merchandise eligible for review during 

the POR, we are hereby rescinding this 

administrative review, in its entirety, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). 

Assessment 

Commerce will instruct CBP to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. Antidumping duties shall be 

assessed at rates equal to the cash 

deposit of estimated antidumping duties 

required at the time of entry, or 

withdrawal from warehouse, for 

consumption, in accordance with 19 

CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends 

to issue assessment instructions to CBP 

no earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of this rescission notice in 

the Federal Register. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Order 

This notice serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of the return or 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(4). 

Dated: November 27, 2023.

On August 16, 2023, Commerce 

received notices of intent to participate 

in these reviews from Bonney Forge 

Corporation (Bonney Forge), Phoenix 

Forge Group d/b/a Capitol 

Manufacturing Company, LLC (Capitol 

Manufacturing Company), and the 

United Steel, Paper and Forestry, 

Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied 

Industrial and Service Workers 

International Union (USW) (collectively, 

the domestic interested parties), within 

the deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(i).4 Bonney Forge and 

Capitol Manufacturing Company 

claimed interested party status under 

section 771(9)(C) of the Act as producers 

of the domestic like product in the 

United States. The USW is a certified 

labor union whose members include 

workers at the facilities in which the 

domestic like product is produced and 

is therefore an interested party within 

the meaning of section 771(9)(D) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.102(b)(17). On 

August 31, 2023, Commerce received 

adequate substantive responses from the 

domestic interested parties.5 We 

received no substantive responses from 

respondent interested parties. 

On September 20, 2023, Commerce 

notified the U.S. International Trade 

Commission that it did not receive 

substantive responses from any 

respondent interested parties.6 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 expedited (120-day) sunset 

reviews of the Orders.

are forged steel fittings from China, 

Taiwan, and Italy. For a full description 

of the scope, see the Issues and Decision

likely to prevail would be weighedaverage margins up to 142.72 percent for 

China, up to 116.17 percent for Taiwan, 

and up to 80.2 percent for Italy.9
