SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 1, 1993, the Department published the AD order on wire 
rods from India.\1\ On December 1, 2016, the Department published the 
notice of initiation of the fourth sunset review of the AD order on 
wire rods,\2\ pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act).

(December 1, 2016) (Notice of Initiation).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 13, 2016, the Department received a notice of intent to 
participate on behalf of Carpenter Technology Corporation, North 
American Stainless, and Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc. 
(collectively, the domestic interested parties) within the 15-day 
period specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). The domestic interested 
parties claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the 
Act as manufacturers in the United States of a domestic like product 
for the proceeding.
    On January 3, 2017, the Department received a complete substantive 
response to the Notice of Initiation from the domestic interested 
parties within the 30-day period, specified in 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(3)(i).\3\ We received no substantive responses from any 
respondent interested parties. 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 conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the AD

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by the AD order is certain stainless steel 
wire rods from India, which are hot-rolled or hot-rolled annealed and/
or pickled rounds, squares, octagons, hexagons or other shapes, in 
coils. The wire rods subject to this order are currently classifiable

7221.00.0030, 7221.00.0045, and 7221.00.0075 of the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings

of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the 
margins likely to prevail if the order is revoked, are addressed in the

Final Results of Sunset Review

    Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, 
the Department determines that revocation of the AD order on wire rods 
from India would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of 
dumping, and that the margins likely to prevail would be weighted-
average margins up to 48.80 percent.
