Background

permanganate from China.\1\ On February 1, 2021, the ITC instituted,\2\
and Commerce initiated, the fifth sunset review of the Order, pursuant
to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).\3\
As a result of its review, Commerce determined that revocation of the
Order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and,
therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins likely to
prevail should the Order be revoked.\4\
