DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

International Trade Administration


Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended 
Investigation; Advance Notification of Sunset Reviews

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce

ACTION: Notice of upcoming sunset reviews.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    Every five years, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') and 
the International Trade Commission automatically initiate and conduct a 
review to determine whether revocation of a countervailing or 
antidumping duty order or termination of an investigation suspended 
under section 704 or 734 would be likely to lead to continuation or 
recurrence of dumping or a countervailable subsidy (as the case may be) 
and of material injury. As a courtesy, the Department provides advance 
notice of these cases that are scheduled for sunset reviews one month 
before those reviews are initiated.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Zev Primor, Office 4, AD/CVD 
Operations, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
U.S. Department of Commerce at (202) 482-4114.
