Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 148 / Monday, August 3, 1998 / Notices 41227

1A number of parties commented that these

interim-final regulations provided insufficient time

for rebuttals to substantive responses to a notice of

initiation (pursuant to 19 CFR 351.218(d)(4)). As

provided in 19 CFR 351.302(b), the Department will

consider individual requests for extension of that

five-day deadline based upon a showing of good

cause.

Conduct Policies

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of initiation of five-year

(‘‘sunset’’) reviews.

SUMMARY: In accordance with section

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

amended (‘‘the Act’’), the Department of

Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) is

automatically initiating five-year

(‘‘sunset’’) reviews of the antidumping

and countervailing duty orders,

findings, and/or suspended

investigations listed below. The

International Trade Commission (‘‘the

Commission’’) is publishing

concurrently with this notice its notices

of Institution of Five-Year Reviews

covering these same orders and/or

suspended investigations.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Melissa G. Skinner, Office of Policy,

Import Administration, International

Trade Administration, U.S. Department

of Commerce, at (202) 482–1560, or Vera

Libeau, Office of Investigations, U.S.

International Trade Commission, at

(202) 205–3176.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of

the Act, an antidumping (‘‘AD’’) or

countervailing duty (‘‘CVD’’) order will

be revoked, or the suspended

investigation will be terminated, unless

revocation or termination would be

likely to lead to continuation or

recurrence of (1) dumping or a

countervailable subsidy, and (2)

material injury to the domestic industry.

Parties wanting to participate in the

sunset review being conducted by the

Department must follow the separate

procedural regulations promulgated by

the Department (see Procedures for

Conducting Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)

Reviews of Antidumping and

Countervailing Duty Orders, 63 FR

13516 (March 20, 1998)).1 In addition,

because deadlines in a sunset review

are, in many instances, very short, we

urge interested parties to apply for

access to proprietary information under

administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’)

immediately following publication of

the notice of initiation of the sunset

review in the Federal Register. The

Department’s regulations on submission

of proprietary information and

eligibility to receive access to business

proprietary information under APO can

be found at 19 CFR 351.304–306 (see

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Proceedings: Administrative Protective

Order Procedures; Procedures for

Imposing Sanctions for Violation of a

Protective Order, 63 FR 24391 (May 4,

1998)). For guidance on methodological

or analytical issues relevant to the

Department’s conduct of sunset reviews,

you may wish to consult the

Department’s Policy Bulletin 98:3—

Policies Regarding the Conduct of Fiveyear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Orders; Policy Bulletin, 63 FR

18871(April 16, 1998). We are making

information related to sunset

proceedings available to the public on

the Internet at the following address:

‘‘http://www.ita.doc.gov/

importladmin/records/sunset/’’.

Finally, the procedural rules regarding

filing, format, translation, service, and

certification of documents can be found

at 19 CFR 351.303 (see Antidumping

Duties; Countervailing Duties; Final

rule, 62 FR 27295, 27406 (May 19,

1997)).
