In a Federal Register notice published on January 4, 2016, the International Trade Commission (ITC) and the Department of Commerce announced the initiation of the five-year Sunset Review of antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) orders on Magnesium Metal from China (A-570-896) and Porcelain-On-Steel Cooking Ware (A-570-506).

The Uruguay Round Agreement Act requires the Department of Commerce to conduct reviews after an AD/CVD order has been issued in order to determine if the revocation of the order would result in material injury to a domestic company or in recurrence of dumping or subsidies. 

According to the notice, “if the Department receives a Notice of Intent to Participate from a member of the domestic industry within 15 days of the date of initiation, the review will continue.

Interested parties need to submit a notice of intend to participate no later than January 14, 2016, followed by the submission of their complete substantive responses no later than February 3, 2016.
