SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 29, 1995, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
AD order on glycine from China.\1\ On January 3, 2022, Commerce
published a notice of initiation of the fifth sunset review of the
Order, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act).\2\ Commerce conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review
of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Antidumping Duty Order: Glycine from the People's
Republic of China, 60 FR 16116 (March 29, 1995) (Order).
\2\ See Initiation of Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews, 87 FR 76
(January 3, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a result of its review, pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and
752(c) of the Act, Commerce determined that revocation of the Order on
glycine from China would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping. Commerce, therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the
margins of dumping likely to prevail should the Order be revoked.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Glycine from the People's Republic of China: Final
Results of the Expedited Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty
Order, 87 FR 25446 (April 25, 2022), and accompanying Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On September 2, 2022, the ITC published its determination, pursuant
to sections 751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that revocation of the Order
would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to
an industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable
time.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Glycine from the People's Republic of China, 87 FR 54263
(September 2, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the Order is glycine, which is a free-
flowing crystalline material, like salt or sugar. Glycine is produced
at varying levels of purity and is used as a sweetener/taste enhancer,
a buffering agent, reabsorbable amino acid, chemical intermediate, and
a metal complexing agent. This proceeding includes glycine of all
purity levels. Glycine is currently classified under subheading
2922.49.4020 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTSUS).\5\ Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise under
the Order is dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ In separate scope rulings, Commerce determined that: (a) D(-
)Phenylglycine Ethyl Dane Salt is outside the scope of the Order;
and (b) Chinese glycine exported from India remains the same class
or kind of merchandise as the China-origin glycine imported into
India. See Notice of Scope Rulings and Anticircumvention Inquiries,
62 FR 62288 (November 21, 1997); and Glycine from the People's
Republic of China: Final Partial Affirmative Determination of
Circumvention of the Antidumping Duty Order, 77 FR 73426 (December
10, 2012), respectively.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation of the Order
As a result of the determinations by Commerce and the ITC that
revocation of the Order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of dumping as well as material injury to an industry in the United
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(a),
Commerce hereby orders the continuation of the Order.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection will continue to collect AD cash
deposits at the rates in effect at the time of entry for all imports of
subject merchandise. The effective date of continuation of the Order
will be the date of publication in the Federal Register of this notice
of continuation. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(c)(2), Commerce intends to initiate the next five-year (sunset)
review of the Order no later than 30 days prior to the fifth
anniversary of the effective date of continuation.
Administrative Protective Order
This notice also serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
an administrative protective order (APO) of
[[Page 56404]]
their responsibility concerning the return, destruction, or conversion
to judicial protective order of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Failure to comply is a
violation of the APO which may be subject to sanctions.
Notification to Interested Parties
This five-year sunset review and this notice are in accordance with
section 751I and (d)(2) of the Act and published pursuant to section
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(f)(4).
Dated: September 8, 2022.
