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 antidumping 
duty order on wire rods from India, pursuant to section 751(c) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\ On December 1, 2016, the 
ITC instituted its review of the antidumping duty order on wire rods 
from India.\3\

Five-Year Review, 81 FR 86728 (December 1, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a result of this sunset review, the Department determined that 
revocation of the antidumping duty order on wire rods from India would 
be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and notified 
the ITC of the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail should the 
order be revoked.\4\

    On June 6, 2017, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, 
the ITC determined that revocation of the antidumping duty order on 
wire rods from India would be likely to lead to continuation or 
recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States 
within a reasonably foreseeable time.\5\

From India: Investigation No. 731-TA-638 (Fourth Review) (June 
2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by the antidumping duty 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. Wire rods are 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 only 
manufactured by hot-rolling and are normally sold in coiled form, and 
are of solid cross section. The majority of wire rods sold in the 
United States are round in cross-section shape, annealed, and pickled. 
The most common size is 5.5 millimeters in diameter.
    The wire rods subject to this order are currently classifiable 
under subheadings 7221.00.0005, 7221.00.0017, 7221.00.0018, 
7221.00.0030, 7221.00.0045, and 7221.00.0075 of the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).\6\ Although the HTSUS 
subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the 
written description of the merchandise subject to the order is 
dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The merchandise subject to the scope of this order was 
originally classifiable under all of the following HTS subheadings: 
7221.00.0005, 7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0020, 7221.00.0030, 
7221.00.0040, 7221.00.0045, 7221.00.0060, 7221.00.0075, and 
7221.00.0080. HTSUS subheadings 7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0020, 
7221.00.0040, 7221.00.0060, and 7221.00.0080, no longer exist.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 wire rods from India.
    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 
continuation of this 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.
    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).

    Dated: June 19, 2017.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
