SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Background

    On August 1, 2014, the Department initiated a sunset review of the 
CVD Order \1\ on kitchen racks from the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\ On August 18, 2014, 
the Department received a notice of intent to participate in the review 
on behalf of Nashville Wire Products, Inc. (Nashville Wire) and SSW 
Holding Company, Inc. (SSW) (collectively, the domestic industry) 
within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). Each of these 
companies claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of 
the Act, as domestic producers of the domestic like product.

People's Republic of China: Countervailing Duty Order, 74 FR 46973 
(September 14, 2009) (CVD Order).
    \2\ See Initiation of Five-Year (``Sunset'') Review, 79 FR 44743 
(August 1, 2014).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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). The Department did not receive a substantive 
response from the Government of the PRC or any 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)(l)(ii)(B)(2) and (C)(2).

    The merchandise subject to the order is certain kitchen appliance 
shelving and racks from the People's Republic of China. The product is
