Background

    On May 1, 2009, the Department initiated and the ITC instituted a 
sunset review of the antidumping duty finding on PSP Tape from Italy, 
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act). See Initiation of Five-Year Sunset Review, 74 FR 20286 (May 1, 
2009).
    The Department conducted an expedited sunset review of this 
finding. As a result of its review, the Department found that 
revocation of the antidumping duty finding would be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of dumping and notified the ITC of the 
magnitude of the margins likely to prevail were the finding to be 
revoked. See Pressure Sensitive Plastic Tape from Italy: Final Results 
of Expedited Sunset Review, 74 FR 40811 (August 13, 2009) (Final 
Results).\1\

within a reasonably foreseeable time. See Pressure Sensitive Plastic
