SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On July 3, 2017, the Department published the notice of initiation 
of the fourth sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on SSB from 
Brazil, India, Japan, and Spain, pursuant to section 751(c) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\1\ On July 18, 2017, the 
Department received a notice of intent to participate from Carpenter 
Technology Corporation, Crucible Industries LLC, Electroalloy (a 
Division of G.O. Carlson, Inc.), North American Stainless, Outokumpu 
Stainless Bar, LLC, Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc., 
Valbruna Slater Stainless, Inc. (collectively, the petitioners) as 
domestic interested parties, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(1)(i).\2\ The petitioners 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, 82 FR 30844 
(July 3, 2017).
    \2\ See Letter to the Department regarding ``Stainless Steel Bar 
from Brazil, India, Japan, and Spain--Petitioners' Notice of Intent 
to Participate.'' (July 18, 2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On August 2, 2017, 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. The Department received no comments on the adequacy of 
responses in these sunset reviews. 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 subject to the orders is SSB. For a complete 
description of the scope of these orders, including variances in the 
Japan order, see the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Memorandum, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the 
Expedited Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping Duty Orders on Stainless 
Steel Bar from Brazil, India, Japan, and Spain'' (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 SSB 
from Brazil, India, Japan, and Spain would likely lead to continuation 
or recurrence of dumping up to the following weighted-average margin 
percentages:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
