AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: As a result of these sunset reviews, the Department of 
Commerce (the Department) finds that revocation of the antidumping duty 
orders on stainless steel plate in coils (SSPC) from Belgium, South 
Africa, and Taiwan would be likely to lead to continuation or 
recurrence of dumping at the levels indicated in the ``Final Results of 
Sunset Reviews'' section of this notice.

DATES: Effective November 9, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Victoria Cho or Yasmin Bordas, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office VI, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue 
NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-2312 or (202) 482-3813, 
respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On July 1, 2016, the Department published the notice of initiation 
of the third sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on SSPC from 
Belgium, South Africa, and Taiwan, pursuant to section 751(c) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\1\ On July 15, 2016, the 
Department received a notice of intent to participate in these reviews 
from Allegheny Ludlum, LLC d/b/a ATI Flat Rolled Products; North 
American Stainless; and Outokumpu Stainless USA LLC (collectively, 
domestic interested parties), within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(1)(i). These domestic interested parties claimed interested 
party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as manufacturers of a 
domestic like product in the United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Five-Year (``Sunset'') Reviews, 81 FR 
43185 (July 1, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On July 31, 2016, we received complete substantive responses for 
each review from the domestic interested parties within the 30-day 
deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no 
substantive responses from respondent interested parties with respect 
to any of the orders covered by these sunset reviews, nor was a hearing 
requested. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 
19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department is conducting expedited 
(120-day) sunset reviews of these orders.

Scope of the Orders

    The merchandise covered by the orders consists of stainless steel 
plate in coils, 254 mm or over in width and 4.75 mm or more in 
thickness, and annealed or otherwise heat treated and pickled or 
otherwise descaled. These imports are currently classified under 
subheadings 7219 and 7220 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States (HTSUS). The HTSUS subheadings are provided for 
convenience and customs purposes. The written product description 
remains dispositive.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ A full description of the scope of the orders is contained 
in the memorandum to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for 
Enforcement and Compliance, from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant 
Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, 
``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Expedited Sunset Reviews of 
the Antidumping Duty Orders on Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from 
Belgium, South Africa, and Taiwan'' (Issues and Decision 
Memorandum), dated concurrently with these results and hereby 
adopted by this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Analysis of Comments Received

    All issues raised in these reviews, including the likelihood of 
continuation or recurrence of dumping in the event of revocation and 
the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail if the orders were 
revoked, are addressed in the accompanying Issues and Decision 
Memorandum. 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). 
ACCESS is available to registered users at http://access.trade.gov, and 
to all parties in the Central Records Unit, Room B8024 of the main 
Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the 
Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Internet 
at http://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed Issues and Decision 
Memorandum and the electronic version of the Issues and Decision 
Memorandum are identical in content.

Final Results of Sunset Reviews

    Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c)(1),(2) and (3) of the 
Act, we determine that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on 
SSPC from Belgium, South Africa, and Taiwan would be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of dumping up to the following weighted-
average margin percentages:
