Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review and Determination Not To
Revoke
Section 751(d)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act)
and 19 CFR 351.222(g)(1)(i) provide that Commerce may revoke an order
(in whole or in part) if it determines that producers accounting for
substantially all of the production of the domestic like product have
expressed a lack of interest in the order, in whole or in part.\4\
Further, 19 CFR 351.222(g)(2) provides that Commerce will conduct a CCR
under 19 CFR 351.216, and may revoke an order, in whole or in part, if
it determines that revocation is warranted.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See section 782(h) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seymour Mfg. LLC demonstrated that it is a domestic producer of
ironing tables and has expressed interest in the continuation of the
Order. Therefore, Commerce has determined not to revoke the Order.
