# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Background

                    On August 15, 2019, Commerce published the AD orders on steel propane cylinders from China and Thailand.[1]                                          On July 1, 2024, Commerce published the                     *Initiation Notice*                     of the first sunset reviews of the                     *Orders,*                     pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[2]                                          In accordance with 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i) and (ii), Commerce received a notice of intent to participate from Worthington Enterprises (the domestic interested party) within 15 days after the publication of the                     *Initiation Notice.*[3]                                          The domestic interested party claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as a producer of a domestic like product in the United States.[4] 

                    Commerce received an adequate substantive response from the domestic interested party within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).[5]                                          Commerce did not receive substantive responses from any other interested parties. On August 21, 2024, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission that it did not receive a complete substantive response from other interested parties.[6]                                          As a result, in accordance with section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce conducted expedited (                    *i.e.,*                     120-day) sunset reviews of the                     *Orders.*                     On July 22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in these administrative proceedings by seven days.[7]                                          The deadline for the final results is now November 5, 2024.                

## Scope of the Orders

                    The merchandise covered by the                     *Orders*                     is steel propane cylinders. For a full description of the scope of the                     *Orders, see*                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[8] 

## Analysis of Comments Received

                    All issues raised in these sunset reviews are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, including the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail if the                     *Orders*                     were revoked. A list of topics discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is included as an appendix to this notice. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS), which is available to registered users at                     *https://access.trade.gov.*                     In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at                     *https://access.trade.gov/​public/​FRNoticesListLayout.aspx.*      ( print page 88728)    

## Final Results of Sunset Reviews

                    Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, we determine that revocation of the                     *Orders*                     would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and that the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail would be up to 108.60 percent for China and 10.77 percent for Thailand.[9]
