SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (Department) finds that revocation of the countervailing duty (CVD) order on certain steel grating (steel grating) from the People's Republic of China (PRC) would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy at the levels indicated in the ``Final Results of Sunset Review'' section of this notice. DATES: Effective Date: October 5, 2015. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Toni Page, Office VII, AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone (202) 482- 1398.

The Department did not receive a response from the Government of the PRC (GOC) or any respondent interested party to the proceeding. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(l)(ii)(B)(2) and (C)(2), the Department conducted an expedited review of this CVD Order on steel grating. Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to this CVD Order is steel grating. Imports of merchandise included within the scope of this order are currently classifiable under subheading 7308.90.7000 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. The Issues and Decision Memorandum, which is hereby adopted by this notice, provides a full description of the scope of the order.\5\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \5\ See Department Memorandum, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the Expedited First Sunset Review of the Countervailing Duty Order on Certain Steel Grating from the People's Republic of China,'' dated concurrently with this notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS).

Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in this review are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. The issues discussed include the likelihood of continuation [[Page 60121]] or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy and the net countervailable subsidy rate likely to prevail if the CVD Order were revoked. Final Results of Sunset Review Pursuant to sections 752(b)(1) and (3) of the Act, we determine that revocation of the CVD Order on steel grating from the PRC would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of a net countervailable subsidy at the rates listed below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net countervailable Manufacturers/ Exporters/ Producers subsidy (percent) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ningbo Jiulong Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd........ 62.46 All Others............................................. 62.46 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305.
