SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On December 29, 2004, Commerce published in the Federal Register
the AD orders on CVP-23 from India and China, and the CVD order on CVP-
23 from India.\1\ On October 1, 2020, Commerce initiated, and the ITC
instituted, five-year (sunset) reviews of the Orders pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\2\ On
February 5, 2021, and February 9, 2021, Commerce published in the
Federal Register the results of its third expedited sunset reviews of
the Orders on CVP-23 from India and China.\3\ As a result of its
reviews, Commerce determined that revocation of the Orders would likely
lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and of countervailable
subsidies and, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
margins of dumping and subsidy rates likely to prevail should the
Orders be revoked.\4\

Continuation of the Orders

of the Orders not later than 30 days prior to the fifth anniversary of
the effective date of continuation.
