Export Administration Regulations, 15 

CFR parts 730–774 (‘‘EAR’’ or ‘‘the

extended period is appropriate because 

Rossiya Airlines (‘‘Rossiya’’) has 

engaged in a pattern of repeated,

I. Procedural History 

On May 20, 2022, I signed an order 

denying Rossiya’s export privileges for a 

period of 180 days on the ground that 

issuance of the order was necessary in 

the public interest to prevent an 

imminent violation of the Regulations. 

The order was issued ex parte pursuant 

to section 766.24(a) of the Regulations 

and was effective upon issuance.2 The 

TDO was subsequently renewed on 

November 15, 2022,3 May 12, 2023,4

and again on November 8 2023 5 in 

accordance with section 766.24(d) of the 

Regulations.6

On October 17, 2024, BIS, through 

OEE, submitted a written request for a 

fourth renewal of the TDO. The written 

request was made more than 20 days 

before the TDO’s scheduled expiration 

and, given the temporary suspension of 

international mail service to Russia, 

OEE has attempted to deliver a copy of 

the renewal request to Rossiya by 

alternative means in accordance with 

sections 766.5 and 766.24(d) of the 

Regulations. No opposition to the 

renewal of the TDO has been received. 

II. Renewal of the TDO 

A. Legal Standard 

Pursuant to section 766.24, BIS may 

issue an order temporarily denying a 

respondent’s export privileges upon a 

showing that the order is necessary in 

the public interest to prevent an 

‘‘imminent violation’’ of the 

Regulations, or any order, license or 

authorization issued thereunder. 15 CFR 

766.24(b)(1) and 766.24(d). ‘‘A violation 

may be ‘imminent’ either in time or 

degree of likelihood.’’ 15 CFR 

766.24(b)(3). BIS may show ‘‘either that 

a violation is about to occur, or that the 

general circumstances of the matter 

under investigation or case under 

criminal or administrative charges 

demonstrate a likelihood of future 

violations.’’ Id. As to the likelihood of 

future violations, BIS may show that the 

violation under investigation or charge 

‘‘is significant, deliberate, covert and/or 

likely to occur again, rather than 

technical or negligent[.]’’ Id. A ‘‘lack of 

information establishing the precise 

time a violation may occur does not 

preclude a finding that a violation is 

imminent, so long as there is sufficient 

reason to believe the likelihood of a 

violation.’’ Id. 

If BIS believes that renewal of a denial 

order is necessary in the public interest 

to prevent an imminent violation, it may 

file a written request for renewal, with 

any modifications if appropriate. 15 

CFR 766.24(d)(1). The written request, 

which must be filed no later than 20 

days prior to the TDO’s expiration, 

should set forth the basis for BIS’s belief 

that renewal is necessary, including any 

additional or changed circumstances. Id. 

‘‘In cases demonstrating a pattern of 

repeated, ongoing and/or continuous 

apparent violations, BIS may request the 

renewal of a temporary denial order for 

an additional period not exceeding one 

year.’’ 7 Id. 

B. The TDO and BIS’s Request for 

Renewal 

The U.S. Commerce Department, 

through BIS, responded to the Russian 

Federation’s (‘‘Russia’s’’) further 

invasion of Ukraine by implementing a 

sweeping series of stringent export 

controls that severely restrict Russia’s 

access to technologies and other items 

that it needs to sustain its aggressive 

military capabilities. These controls 

primarily target Russia’s defense, 

aerospace, and maritime sectors and are 

intended to cut off Russia’s access to 

vital technological inputs, atrophy key 

sectors of its industrial base, and 

undercut Russia’s strategic ambitions to 

exert influence on the world stage. 

Effective February 24, 2022, BIS 

imposed expansive controls on aviationrelated (e.g., Commerce Control List 

Categories 7 and 9) items to Russia, 

including a license requirement for the 

export, reexport or transfer (in-country) 

to Russia of any aircraft or aircraft parts 

specified in Export Control 

Classification Number (‘‘ECCN’’) 9A991 

(section 746.8(a)(1) of the EAR).8 BIS 

will review any export or reexport 

license applications for such items 

under a policy of denial. See section 

746.8(b). Effective March 2, 2022, BIS 

excluded any aircraft registered in, 

owned, or controlled by, or under 

charter or lease by Russia or a national 

of Russia from being eligible for license 

exception Aircraft, Vessels, and 

Spacecraft (‘‘AVS’’) (section 740.15 of 

the EAR).9 Accordingly, any U.S.-origin 

aircraft or foreign aircraft that includes 

more than 25% controlled U.S.-origin 

content, and that is registered in, 

owned, or controlled by, or under 

charter or lease by Russia or a national 

of Russia, is subject to a license 

requirement before it can travel to 

Russia. 

OEE’s request for renewal for a period 

of one year is based upon the facts 

underlying the issuance of the initial 

TDO and the renewal orders 

subsequently issued in this matter on 

November 15, 2022, May 12, 2023, and 

November 8, 2023, as well as other 

evidence developed during this 

investigation. This evidence 

demonstrates that Rossiya has 

continued, and continues, to act in 

blatant disregard for U.S. export 

controls and the terms of previously 

issued TDOs. Specifically, the initial 

TDO, issued on May 20, 2022, was 

based on evidence that Rossiya engaged 

in conduct prohibited by the 

Regulations by operating multiple 

aircraft subject to the EAR and classified 

under ECCN 9A991.b on flights into 

Russia after March 2, 2022, from 

destinations including, but not limited 

to, Hurghada, Egypt; Sharm el-Sheikh, 

Egypt; Dubai, United Arab Emirates; and 

Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, without 

the required BIS authorization.10

Further evidence indicated that Rossiya 

also operated aircraft subject to the EAR 

domestically on flights within Russia, 

potentially in violation of section 

736.2(b)(10) of the Regulations. 

As discussed in the prior renewal 

orders, BIS presented evidence 

indicating that, after the initial TDO 

issued, Rossiya continued to operate 

aircraft subject to the EAR and classified 

under ECCN 9A991.b on flights both 

into and within Russia, in violation of 

the Regulations and the TDO itself.11

The November 15, 2022 renewal order 

detailed flights into and out of Russia 

from/to Antalya and Istanbul, Turkey, as 

well as within Russia.12 The May 12,

Moscow, Russia on November 12, 2022 and from 

Kaliningrad, Russia to Moscow, Russia on 

September 29, 2022. In addition, SN 33622 flew 

from Istanbul, Turkey to St. Petersburg, Russia on 

November 2, 2022 and from Krasnoyarsk, Russia to 

Irkutsk, Russia on November 5, 2022. 

13Publicly available flight tracking information 

shows that SN 34900 flew from Sharm el-Sheikh, 

Egypt to Moscow, Russia on March 20, 2023. 

Additionally, SN 34897 flew from Istanbul, Turkey 

to Moscow, Russia on March 16, 2023 and SN 

28515 flew from Magadan, Russia to Anadyr, Russia 

on April 25, 2023. 

14Publicly available flight tracking information 

shows that SN 34900 flew from Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan 

to Krasnoyarsk, Russia on November 3, 2023 and 

from Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt to Moscow, Russia on 

September 21, 2023. In addition, SN 35278 flew 

from Samarkand, Uzbekistan to St. Petersburg, 

Russia on August 4, 2023. On November 1 to 

November 2, 2023, SN 34897 flew from Hurghada, 

Egypt to Samara, Russia. 

2023 renewal order detailed flights into 

and out of Russia from/to Hurghada and 

Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt and Istanbul, 

Turkey.13 Similarly, the November 8, 

2023 renewal order detailed flights into 

and out of Russia from/to Bishkek, 

Kyrgyzstan, Samarkand, Uzbekistan, 

and Hurghada and Sharm el-Sheikh, 

Egypt.14

Since that time, Rossiya has 

continued to engage in conduct 

prohibited by the applicable TDO and 

Regulations. In its October 17, 2024 

request for renewal of the TDO, BIS 

submitted evidence that Rossiya 

continues to operate aircraft subject to 

the EAR and classified under ECCN 

9A991.b, both on flights into and within 

Russia, in violation of the November 8, 

2023 renewal order and/or the 

Regulations. Specifically, BIS’s evidence 

and related investigation demonstrates 

that Rossiya continued to operate 

aircraft subject to the EAR, including, 

but not limited to, on flights into and 

out of Russia from/to Sanya, China and 

Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, as well as 

domestically within Russia. Information 

about those flights includes, but is not 

limited to, the following:

III. Findings 

Under the applicable standard set 

forth in section 766.24 of the 

Regulations and my review of the entire 

record, I find that the evidence 

presented by BIS demonstrates that 

Rossiya has acted in violation of the 

Regulations and the TDO; that such 

violations have been significant, 

deliberate; and that given the foregoing 

and the nature of the matters under 

investigation, there is a likelihood of 

imminent violations. Moreover, I find 

that renewal for an extended period is 

appropriate because Rossiya has 

engaged in a pattern of repeated, 

ongoing and/or continuous apparent 

violations of the EAR. Therefore, 

renewal of the TDO for one year is 

necessary in the public interest to 

prevent imminent violation of the 

Regulations and to give notice to 

companies and individuals in the 

United States and abroad that they 

should avoid dealing with Rossiya, in 

connection with export and reexport 

transactions involving items subject to 

the Regulations and in connection with 

any other activity subject to the 

Regulations. 

IV. Order 

It is therefore ordered: 

First, Rossiya Airlines, Pilotov St 18– 

4, St. Petersburg, Russia, 196210, when 

acting for or on their behalf, any 

successors or assigns, agents, or 

employees may not, directly or 

indirectly, participate in any way in any 

transaction involving any commodity, 

software or technology (hereinafter 

collectively referred to as ‘‘item’’) 

exported or to be exported from the 

United States that is subject to the EAR, 

or in any other activity subject to the 

EAR including, but not limited to: 

A. Applying for, obtaining, or using 

any license (except directly related to 

safety of flight), license exception, or 

export control document; 

B. Carrying on negotiations 

concerning, or ordering, buying, 

receiving, using, selling, delivering, 

storing, disposing of, forwarding, 

transporting, financing, or otherwise 

servicing in any way, any transaction 

involving any item exported or to be 

exported from the United States that is 

subject to the EAR except directly 

related to safety of flight and authorized 

by BIS pursuant to section 764.3(a)(2) of 

the Regulations, or engaging in any 

other activity subject to the EAR except 

directly related to safety of flight and 

authorized by BIS pursuant to section 

764.3(a)(2) of the Regulations; or 

C. Benefitting in any way from any 

transaction involving any item exported 

or to be exported from the United States 

that is subject to the EAR, or from any 

other activity subject to the EAR except 

directly related to safety of flight and 

authorized by BIS pursuant to section 

764.3(a)(2) of the Regulations. 

Second, that no person may, directly 

or indirectly, do any of the following: 

A. Export, reexport, or transfer (incountry) to or on behalf of Rossiya any 

item subject to the EAR except directly 

related to safety of flight and authorized 

by BIS pursuant to section 764.3(a)(2) of 

the Regulations; 

B. Take any action that facilitates the 

acquisition or attempted acquisition by 

Rossiya of the ownership, possession, or 

control of any item subject to the EAR 

that has been or will be exported from 

the United States, including financing 

or other support activities related to a 

transaction whereby Rossiya acquires or 

attempts to acquire such ownership, 

possession or control except directly 

related to safety of flight and authorized

Persulfates From the People’s 

Republic of China: Final Results of the 

Expedited Fifth Sunset Review of the 

Antidumping Duty Order 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: As a result of this expedited 

fifth sunset review, the U.S. Department 

of Commerce (Commerce) finds that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

(AD) order on persulfates from the 

People’s Republic of China (China) 

would likely lead to continuation or 

recurrence of dumping at the level 

indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of 

Expedited Sunset Review’’ section of 

this notice. 

DATES: Applicable November 8, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

After Commerce initiated this sunset 

review 1 of the Order,2 pursuant to 

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

as amended (the Act), Evonik 

Corporation (Evonik), a domestic 

interested party, timely submitted a 

complete notice of intent to participate 

in,3 and an adequate substantive 

response regarding, the sunset review.4

Evonik claimed interested party status 

under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as a 

producer of the domestic like product in 

the United States.5 Commerce did not 

receive a substantive response from any 

respondent interested party, nor was a 

hearing requested. Consequently, on 

August 21, 2024, Commerce notified the 

U.S. International Trade Commission 

that it did not receive an adequate 

substantive response 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 an expedited (120-day) 

sunset review of the Order. On July 22, 

2024, Commerce tolled certain 

deadlines in this administrative 

proceeding by seven days.7 The 

deadline for the final results of this 

expedited sunset review is now 

November 5, 2024.
