Chloropicrin From the People's Republic of China: Continuation of 
Antidumping Duty Order

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: As a result of the determinations by the Department of 
Commerce (the ``Department'') and the International Trade Commission 
(the ``ITC'') that revocation of the antidumping duty order on 
chloropicrin from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') would likely 
lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to 
an industry in the United States, the Department is publishing this 
notice of continuation of the antidumping duty order.

DATES: Effective date: September 22, 2015.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION:  Howard Smith, AD/CVD Operations, Office IV,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 1, 2015, the Department initiated \1\ and the ITC 
instituted \2\ a five-year (sunset) review of the antidumping duty 
order on chloropicrin from the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''). The Department conducted 
an expedited sunset review of this order. As a result of its review, 
the Department determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order 
on chloropicrin from the PRC would likely lead to continuation or 
recurrence of dumping and notified the ITC of the magnitude of the 
dumping margins likely to prevail should the order be revoked.\3\ On 
September 8, 2015, the ITC published its determination, pursuant to 
sections 751(c) and 752 of the Act, that revocation of the antidumping 
duty order on chloropicrin from the PRC would likely lead to 
continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the 
United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.\4\

(September 8, 2015).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the antidumping duty order is 
chloropicrin, also known as trichloronitromethane. A major use of the 
product is as a pre-plant soil fumigant (pesticide). Such merchandise 
is currently classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule (``HTS'') 
item number 2904.90.50.05.\5\ The HTS item number is provided for 
convenience and customs purposes. The written description remains 
dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ In 2004, a new HTS category was developed and identified 
specifically for imports of chloropicrin, i.e., 2904.90.50.05. 
Previously, the HTS category that included chloropicrin was 
2904.90.50.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Continuation of the Order

    As a result of the determinations by the Department and the ITC 
that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to 
continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an 
industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the 
Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the antidumping 
duty order on chloropicrin from the PRC. U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection will continue to collect antidumping duty cash deposits at 
the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject 
merchandise.
    The effective date of the continuation of the order will be the 
date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice of 
continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act, the Department 
intends to initiate the next five-year review of the order not later 
than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date of 
continuation of the order.
    This five-year sunset review and this notice are in accordance with 
section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section 777(i)(1) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).
