 AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
 SUMMARY: On October 1, 2008, the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated a sunset review of the antidumping duty order on refined brown aluminum oxide (RBAO) from the People's Republic of China (PRC) pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The Department conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of this order. As a result of this sunset review, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping. The dumping margins are identified in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: On October 1, 2008, the Department published the notice of initiation of the sunset review of the antidumping duty order on RBAO from the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act. 
                    *See Initiation of Five-Year (“Sunset”) Review*, 73 FR 57055, October 1, 2008. The Department received a Notice of Intent to Participate from the following domestic producers of RBAO: C-E Minerals, Inc., Great Lakes Minerals LLC, Treibacher Schleifmittel North America, Inc., U.S. Electrofused Minerals, Inc., and Washington Mills Company, Inc. (collectively “the domestic interested parties”), within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). The domestic interested parties claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as manufacturers of a domestic-like product in the United States. We received a complete substantive response from the domestic interested parties within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no substantive responses from any respondent interested parties. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the order. Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by this order is ground, pulverized or refined brown artificial corundum, also known as brown aluminum oxide or brown fused alumina, in grit size of 3/8 inch or less. Excluded from the scope of the order is crude artificial corundum in which particles with a diameter greater than 3/8 inch constitute at least 50 percent of the total weight of the entire 
                    ( print page 4139)
                    batch. The scope includes brown artificial corundum in which particles with a diameter greater than 3/8 inch constitute less than 50 percent of the total weight of the batch. The merchandise under investigation is currently classifiable under subheadings 2818.10.20.00 and 2818.10.20.90 of the 
                    *Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States*
                     (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise covered by the order is dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in this review are addressed in the “Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the Expedited Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Refined Brown Aluminum Oxide from the PRC” (Decision Memo), which is hereby adopted by this notice. The issues discussed in the Decision Memo include the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail if the order were to be revoked. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in this review and the corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum which is on file in the Central Records Unit, room 1117 of the main Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Decision Memo can be accessed directly on the Web at 
                    *http://ia.ita.doc.gov/​frn/​index.html*. The paper copy and electronic version of the Decision Memo are identical in content. Final Results of Review We determine that revocation of the antidumping duty order on RBAO from the PRC would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the following weighted-average percentage margins: Manufacturers/Exporters/Producers
