SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 3, 2024, Commerce 

published the notice of initiation of the 

second sunset reviews of the Order,1

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).2 On 

September 18, 2024, Commerce received 

a notice of intent to participate from 

Thomas Steel Strip Corporation 

(Thomas Steel), a domestic interested 

party, within the 15-day period 

specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).3

Thomas Steel 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 October 3, 2024, Thomas Steel 

filed an adequate substantive response 

within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(i).4 Commerce did not 

receive a substantive response from any 

respondent interested party. On October 

31, 2024, Commerce notified the U.S. 

International Trade Commission (ITC) 

that it did not receive an adequate 

substantive response from respondent 

interested parties.5 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 an expedited (120-day) 

sunset review of the Order. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the 

Order is nickel-plated steel products 

from Japan. For a complete description 

of the scope of the Order, see the Issues 

and Decision Memorandum.6

Analysis of Comments Received 

A complete discussion of all issues 

raised in this sunset review, including 

the likelihood of the continuation or 

recurrence of dumping and the 

magnitude of the margins likely to 

prevail if the Order was 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 

version of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum can be accessed at http://

Final Results of Sunset Review 

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

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

determines that revocation of the Order 

would be likely to lead to the 

continuation or recurrence of dumping. 

We determine that the weighted-average 

dumping margin likely to prevail would 

be up to 77.70 percent.7

Administrative Protective Order (APO)

reminder to parties subject to APO of
