 AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
 SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) finds that revocation of the countervailing duty order (CVD) order on heavy iron construction castings (heavy iron castings) from Brazil would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy at the levels indicated in the “Final Results of Review” section of this notice.
 DATES: *Effective Date:*
                         February 5, 2016.
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patricia Tran, Office III, AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-1503.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On October 1, 2015, the Department initiated a sunset review of the CVD order on castings from Brazil pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[1]
                    
                     The Department received a notice of intent to participate in the review on behalf of D&L Foundry, EJ USA, Inc. (previously known as East Jordan Iron Works, Inc.), Neenah Foundry Company, and U.S. Foundry & Manufacturing Corp. (collectively, the domestic industry) within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).[2]
                    
                     Each of these companies claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as a domestic producer of the domestic like product. The Department received adequate substantive responses collectively from the domestic industry within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).[3]
                    
                     The Department did not receive a substantive response from any government or respondent interested party to the proceeding. Because the Department received no response from the respondent interested parties, the Department conducted an expedited review of this CVD order, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2). Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to the CVD order is castings from Brazil. The product is currently classified under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”) item number 7325.10.00. Although the HTSUS number is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written product description remains dispositive. For a full description of the scope,

ACCESS is available to registered users at

                     The signed Issues and Decision Memorandum and the electronic version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in this review are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. The issues discussed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum address the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy, the net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail if the order were revoked, and the nature of the subsidy. Final Results of Review Pursuant to section 752(b)(1) and (3) of the Act, we determine that revocation of the CVD order on heavy iron castings from Brazil would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy at the rate listed below:
                    ( print page 6238) Exporter/manufacturer
