for this final determination, may be

of 1979 (1979 Act), Public Law 96–39, the Treasury 

Department issued antidumping ‘‘findings.’’ Section 

106(a) of the 1979 Act expressly preserved the 

existing antidumping ‘‘findings’’ in the new law 

and provided that, after January 1, 1980, the Tariff 

Act of 1930 would be amended to require 

Commerce to issue antidumping ‘‘orders’’ instead of 

‘‘findings.’’

attempted to file an untimely notice of intent to 

participate. See Domestic Interested Parties’ Letter, 

‘‘Pressure Sensitive Plastic Tape from Italy: Notice 

of Intent to Participate in Sunset Review,’’ dated 

March 17, 2021. On the same day, the domestic 

interested parties filed an untimely request for an

participate in this sunset review. See Domestic 

Interested Parties’ Letter, ‘‘Pressure Sensitive Plastic 

Tape from Italy: Request for Extension of Time to 

File Notice of Intent to Participate in Sunset 

Review,’’ dated March 17, 2021. Commerce found 

that the domestic interested parties failed to 

identify extraordinary circumstances warranting 

consideration of the untimely extension request 

and, thus, denied the untimely extension request 

and rejected the late submission of the notice of 

intent to participate. See Commerce’s Letter’s,

Extension of Time to File Notice of Intent to

initiated the fifth sunset review of the 

antidumping duty finding on pressure

Italy. Because no domestic interested 

party filed a timely notice of intent to

Commerce is revoking this antidumping 

duty finding. 

DATES: Applicable April 14, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 21, 1977, the Department 

of Treasury issued an antidumping duty 

finding on PS tape from Italy.1

Commerce conducted four previous 

sunset reviews of the Finding. 

Commerce published the final results of 

those sunset reviews on January 6, 

1999; 2 May 11, 2004; 3 August 13, 

2009; 4 and July 8, 2015.5 On April 14, 

2016, Commerce published a notice of 

continuation of the Finding following 

the fourth sunset review.6 On March 1, 

2021, Commerce initiated the fifth 

sunset review of this Finding.7

No domestic interested party 

submitted a notice of intent to 

participate in this sunset review by the 

applicable time limit of March 16, 2021, 

as required by 19 CFR 351.102(d)(1).8

Pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(i)(C)(2), on March 23, 

2021, Commerce notified the 

International Trade Commission that it 

intended to issue a final determination 

revoking this antidumping duty 

finding.9

Scope of the Finding 

The products covered by the Finding 

are shipments of PS tape measuring over 

one and three-eighths inches in width 

and not exceeding four mils in 

thickness. The above described PS tape 

is classified under Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 

subheadings 3919.90.10.20 and 

3919.90.50. The HTSUS subheadings 

are provided for convenience and for 

customs purposes. The written 

description remains dispositive. 

Determination to Revoke 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B), if no domestic 

interested party files a notice of intent 

to participate under paragraph (d)(1) of 

that section, Commerce will issue a final 

determination revoking the order or 

terminating the suspended investigation 

not later than 90 days after the date of 

publication in the Federal Register of 

the Notice of Initiation.10 In turn, 19 

CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i) establishes a time 

limit for domestic interested parties to 

file a notice of intent to participate in 

response to a notice of initiation, which 

is 15 days after the date of publication 

in the Federal Register of the notice of 

initiation. In this case, the notice of 

initiation was published in the Federal 

Register on March 1, 2021; therefore, 

the deadline to file an intent to 

participate was March 16, 2021. As 

noted above, Commerce did not receive 

a notice of intent to participate from any 

domestic interested party by March 16, 

2021. 

Because no domestic interested party 

timely filed a notice of intent to 

participate in this sunset review, 

Commerce finds that no domestic 

interested party has responded to the 

notice of initiation of this sunset review 

under 751(c)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act).11 Therefore, 

consistent with the section 751(c)(3)(A) 

of the Act, 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(3), and 19 CFR 

351.222(i)(1)(i), we are revoking the 

antidumping duty finding on PS tape 

from Italy. 

Effective Date of Revocation 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), 

the effective date of revocation is April 

14, 2021, which is the fifth anniversary 

of the date of publication in the Federal 

Register of the most recent notice of 

continuation of this antidumping duty 

finding.12 Therefore, pursuant to section 

751(d)(3) of the Act, Commerce will 

instruct U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection to terminate the suspension 

of liquidation of the merchandise 

subject to this finding entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, on or after 

April 14, 2021. Entries of subject 

merchandise prior to the effective date 

of revocation will continue to be subject 

to suspension of liquidation and 

antidumping duty deposit requirements. 

Commerce will complete any pending 

administrative reviews of this finding 

and will conduct administrative reviews 

of subject merchandise entered prior to 

the effective date of revocation in 

response to appropriately filed requests 

for review. 

This notice of revocation is published 

in accordance with sections 751(c) and 

777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(1)(iii) and 19 CFR 

351.222(i)(1)(i). 

Dated: June 1, 2021.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement 

and Compliance.
