Act of 1930, as amended (the ``Act'').\1\ As a result of this sunset

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On June 1, 2015, the Department received an adequate substantive 
response from domestic interested party Chemical Products Corporation 
(``Petitioner'') within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(3)(i).\2\ We received no responses from respondent 
interested parties. As a result, the Department conducted an expedited 
(120-day) sunset review of the order, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2).

Response to the Notice of Initiation of Five-Year Review of Chemical 
Products Corporation.''

of the Antidumping Duty Order on Barium Chloride from the People's

for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Paul Piquado, 
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, dated concurrently 
with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (``Decision Memorandum''). The

Final Results of Review

    Pursuant to section 752(c) of the Act, we determine that revocation 
of the antidumping duty order on barium chloride from the PRC would be 
likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at weighted 
average margins up to 155.50 percent.

administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility

notification of the return of destruction of APO materials or 
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
