SSWR from Japan, Italy, Korea, Spain, and Taiwan.\1\ On May 1, 2015, 
the Department initiated \2\ and the ITC instituted \3\ five-year

a result of its reviews, the Department determined that revocation of 
the AD orders on SSWR from Japan, Italy, Korea, Spain, and Taiwan would 
likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and notified the 
ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping likely to prevail were 
the orders revoked.\4\

sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that revocation of the AD orders 
on SSWR from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan would likely lead to continuation 
or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States

Scope of the Orders

    The merchandise covered by these orders is SSWR, which comprises 
products that are hot-rolled or hot-rolled annealed and/or pickled and/
or descaled rounds, squares, octagons, hexagons or other shapes, in 
coils, that may also be coated with a lubricant containing copper, 
lime, or oxalate. SSWR is made of alloy steels containing, by weight, 
1.2 percent or less of carbon and 10.5 percent or more of chromium, 
with or without other elements. These products are manufactured only by 
hot-rolling or hot-rolling, annealing, and/or pickling and/or 
descaling, are normally sold in coiled form, and are of solid cross-
section. The majority of SSWR sold in the United States is round in 
cross-sectional shape, annealed and pickled, and later cold-finished 
into stainless steel wire or small-diameter bar.
    The most common size for such products is 5.5 millimeters or 0.217 
inches in diameter, which represents the smallest size that normally is 
produced on a rolling mill and is the size that most wire-drawing 
machines are set up to draw. The range of SSWR sizes normally sold in 
the United States is between 0.20 inches and 1.312 inches diameter. Two 
stainless steel grades, SF20T and K-M35FL, are excluded from the scope 
of the orders. The chemical makeup for the excluded grades is as 
follows:

SF20T
    Carbon................................  0.05 max
    Chromium..............................  19.00/21.00
    Manganese.............................  2.00 max
    Molybdenum............................  1.50/2.50
    Phosphorous...........................  0.05 max
    Lead..................................  added (0.10/0.30)
    Sulfur................................   0.15 max
    Tellurium.............................  added (0.03 min)
    Silicon...............................  1.00 max
K-M35FL
    Carbon................................  0.015 max
    Nickel................................  0.30 max
    Silicon...............................   0.70/1.00
    Chromium..............................  12.50/14.00
    Manganese.............................  0.40 max
    Lead..................................  0.10/0.30
    Phosphorous...........................  0.04 max
    Aluminum..............................  0.20/0.35
    Sulfur................................  0.03 max
 

    The products subject to these orders are currently classifiable 
under subheadings 7221.00.0005, 7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0030, 
7221.00.0045, and 7221.00.0075 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for 
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope 
of these orders is dispositive.

Continuation of the AD Orders on SSWR From Japan, Korea, and Taiwan

    As a result of the determinations by the Department and the ITC 
that revocation of the AD orders on SSWR from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan 
would likely lead to a continuation or a recurrence of dumping and of 
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 AD orders on SSWR from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will continue to collect AD 
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 orders 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 
these orders not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of 
the effective date of continuation.

Revocation of the AD Orders on SSWR From Italy and Spain

    As a result of the determination by the ITC that revocation of the 
AD orders on SSWR from Italy and Spain would not be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the 
United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department 
is revoking the AD orders on SSWR from Italy and Spain. Pursuant to 
section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the effective 
date of revocation is June 17, 2015 (i.e., the fifth anniversary of the 
date of publication in the Federal Register of the notice of 
continuation of the antidumping duty orders).\6\
