SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On June 22, 2020, Commerce published the AD Order on QSP from Türkiye.[1] On May 1, 2025, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the five-year sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).[2] On May 13, 2025, Commerce received a notice of intent to participate in this sunset review from Cambria Company LLC, Dal-Tile LLC, and Guidoni USA (collectively, the Domestic Interested Parties) within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1).[3] The Domestic Interested Parties claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as producers of a domestic like product in the United States.

On June 2, 2025, the Domestic Interested Parties jointly filed a timely substantive response within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).[4] Commerce received no substantive responses from any other interested parties, nor was a hearing requested. On June 20, 2025, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent interested parties.[5] As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the Order.
