of Germany and People’s Republic of 

China: Final Results of Expedited Third

Orders 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of these expedited 

sunset reviews, the U.S. Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) finds that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

(AD) orders on sodium nitrite from the 

Federal Republic of Germany (Germany) 

and the People’s Republic of China 

(China) would be likely to lead to the 

continuation or recurrence of dumping 

at the dumping margins identified in the 

‘‘Final Results of Reviews’’ section of 

this notice. 

DATES: Applicable November 13, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On July 1, 2024, Commerce published 

the notice of initiation of the third 

sunset reviews of the Orders,1 pursuant 

to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act).2 On July 10, 

2024, Commerce received a notice of 

intent to participate from Chemtrade 

Chemicals US LLC (Chemtrade), the 

domestic interested party, within the 

15-day period specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(i).3 Chemtrade claimed 

interested party status under section 

771(9)(C) of the Act, as a producer of the 

domestic like product in the United 

States. On July 22, 2024, Commerce 

tolled certain deadlines in these 

administrative proceedings by seven 

days.4 The deadline for the final results 

of these sunset reviews is now 

November 5, 2024. 

On July 31, 2024, Chemtrade filed 

adequate substantive responses within 

the deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(i).5 Commerce did not 

receive a substantive response from any 

respondent interested party. As a result, 

pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), 

Commerce conducted expedited (120- 

day) sunset reviews of the Orders. 

Scope of the Orders 

The merchandise covered by these 

Orders is sodium nitrite from China and 

Germany. For a complete description of 

the scope of the Orders, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum.6

Analysis of Comments Received 

A complete discussion of all issues 

raised in these sunset reviews, 

including the likelihood of the 

continuation or recurrence of dumping 

and the magnitude of the margins likely 

to prevail if the Orders were to be 

revoked, is provided in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

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). ACCESS is available to 

registered users at http://access.

trade.gov. In addition, a complete

Memorandum can be accessed at http://

Final Results of Sunset Reviews 

Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1), and 

752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, Commerce 

determines that revocation of the Orders 

would be likely to lead to the 

continuation or recurrence of dumping. 

We determine that the weighted-average 

dumping margins likely to prevail are 

up to 190.74 percent for China and 

237.00 percent for Germany.
