Commerce, ITC Will Consider Revoking AD Duty Orders on Steel Wire Strand

The Commerce Department is giving advance notice that it and the International Trade Commission will next month consider revoking the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on prestressed concrete steel wire strand from India (A-533-828/C-533-829), Brazil (A-351-837), Japan (A-588-068), Mexico (A-201-831), South Korea (A-580-852), and Thailand (A-549-820); the AD/CV duty orders on commodity matchbooks from India (A-533-848/C-533-849); and the AD duty order on tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol from China (A-570-887), in their automatic five-year sunset reviews scheduled to begin in November. Advance notice is given because sunset reviews have short deadlines. An order will be revoked unless Commerce finds that revocation would lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and the ITC finds that revocation would result in continuation or recurrence of material injury to a U.S. industry. As a result, a negative determination by either Commerce or the ITC would result in the revocation of these orders.
