SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On March 3, 2016, Commerce published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     the CVD order on certain uncoated paper from Indonesia.[1]
                    
                     On February 1, 2021, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the first sunset review of the 
                    *Order,*
                     pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[2]
                    
                     On February 12 and 16, 2021, Commerce received notices of intent to participate from domestic interested parties [3]
                    
                     within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).[4]
                    
                     The domestic interested parties claimed interested party status pursuant to sections 771(9)(C) and (D) of the Act, respectively, as either manufacturers in the United States of the domestic like product or as a certified union with workers engaged in the production of the domestic like product in the United States.[5] On March 1, 2021, Commerce received an adequate substantive response from the domestic interested parties within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).[6]
                    
                     Commerce received no substantive response from any other interested parties with respect to the 
                    *Order*
                     covered by this sunset review. On March 23, 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 conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the 
                    *Order.* Scope of the Order The scope of the 
                    *Order*
                     includes uncoated paper in sheet form; weighing at least 40 grams per square meter but not more than 150 grams per square meter; that either is a white paper with a GE brightness level [8]
                    
                     of 85 or higher or is a colored paper; whether or not surface-decorated, printed (except as described below), embossed, perforated, or punched; irrespective of the smoothness of the surface; and irrespective of dimensions (Certain Uncoated Paper). Certain uncoated paper includes (a) uncoated free sheet paper that meets this scope definition; (b) uncoated ground wood paper produced from bleached chemi-thermo-mechanical pulp (BCTMP) that meets this scope definition; and (c) any other uncoated paper that meets this scope definition regardless of the type of pulp used to produce the paper. Specifically excluded from the scope of this order are (1) paper printed with final content of printed text or graphics and (2) lined paper products, typically school supplies, composed of paper that incorporates straight horizontal and/or vertical lines that would make the paper unsuitable for copying or printing purposes. For purposes of this scope definition, paper shall be considered “printed with final content” where at least one side of the sheet has printed text and/or graphics that cover at least five percent of the surface area of the entire sheet. On September 1, 2017, Commerce determined that imports of uncoated paper with a GE brightness of 83 +/−1% (83 Bright paper), otherwise meeting the description of in-scope 
 
 merchandise, constitute merchandise “altered in form or appearance in minor respects” from in-scope merchandise that are subject to this order.[9] Imports of the subject merchandise are provided for under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) categories 4802.56.1000, 4802.56.2000, 4802.56.3000, 4802.56.4000, 4802.56.6000, 4802.56.7020, 4802.56.7040, 4802.57.1000, 4802.57.2000, 4802.57.3000, and 4802.57.4000. Some imports of subject merchandise may also be classified under 4802.62.1000, 4802.62.2000, 4802.62.3000, 4802.62.5000, 4802.62.6020, 4802.62.6040, 4802.69.1000, 4802.69.2000, 4802.69.3000, 4811.90.8050 and 4811.90.9080. While HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope is dispositive.

                         One of the key measurements of any grade of paper is brightness. Generally speaking, the brighter the paper the better the contrast between the paper and the ink. Brightness is measured using a GE Reflectance Scale, which measures the reflection of light off a grade of paper. One is the lowest reflection, or what would be given to a totally black grade, and 100 is the brightest measured grade. “Colored paper” as used in this scope definition means a paper with a hue other than white that reflects one of the primary colors of magenta, yellow, and cyan (red, yellow, and blue) or a combination of such primary colors.
