# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Background

                    On October 1, 2021, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the sunset review of the AD order [1]                                          on WSPP from India, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[2]                                          On October 15, 2021, Commerce received a notice of intent to participate from the domestic                           ( print page 5467)                        producers [3]                                          in the underlying investigation, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).[4]                                          The domestic producers claimed domestic interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as manufacturers of domestic like product in the United States.[5]                                          On October 29, 2021, the domestic producers submitted a timely substantive response within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).[6]                                          Commerce did not receive a substantive response from any other interested parties with respect to the                     *Order*                     covered by this sunset review, nor was a hearing requested. On November 30, 2021, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent interested parties.[7]                                          As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(                    *2*), Commerce is conducting an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the                     *Order.*

## Scope of the Order

                    The product covered by the                     *Order*                     is welded stainless pressure pipe from India. For a full description of the scope,                     *see*                     the Issues and Decision Memorandum.[8] 

## Analysis of Comments Received

                    All issues raised in this sunset review 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                     *Order*                     were revoked. A list of topics discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is included as an appendix to this notice.

## Final Results of Sunset Review

                    Pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752(c) of the Act, Commerce determines that revocation of the                     *Order*                     would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping, and that the magnitude of the dumping margins likely to prevail would be weighted-average margins of up to 12.66 percent.
