SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On December 1, 1993, Commerce published in the Federal Register the
AD order on SSWR from India.\1\ On May 2, 2022, Commerce initiated,\2\
and the ITC instituted,\3\ a sunset review of the Order, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

\1\ See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Stainless
Steel Wire Rods from India, 58 FR 63335 (December 1, 1993) (Order).
\2\ See Initiation of Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews, 87 FR 25617
(May 2, 2022).
\3\ See Stainless Steel Wire Rod from India; Institution of a
Five-Year Review, 87 FR 25671 (May 2, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a result of its review, Commerce determined, pursuant to
sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c) of the Act, that revocation of the Order
would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping. Commerce,
therefore, notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins of dumping
rates likely to prevail should this Order be revoked.\4\ On December
27, 2022, the ITC published its determination that revocation of the
Order would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act.\5\

Scope of the Order
The products covered by the Order are SSWR from India. SSWR are
products which are hot-rolled or hot-rolled annealed and/or pickled
rounds, squares, octagons, hexagons or other shapes, in coils. SSWR are
made of alloy steels containing, by weight, 1.2 percent or less of
carbon and 10.5 percent or more of chromium, with or without other
elements. These products are only manufactured by hot-rolling and are
normally sold in coiled form, and are of solid cross-section. The
majority of SSWR sold in the United States are round in cross-section
shape, annealed and pickled. The most common size is 5.5 millimeters in
diameter.

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

an administrative protective order (APO) of 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.
