that revocation of the antidumping duty (AD) orders on glycine from
India, Japan, and Thailand and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on
glycine from India and the People's Republic of China (China), would

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 21, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register the AD
and CVD orders on glycine from India, China, and Japan and subsequently
published the AD order on glycine from Thailand on October 18, 2019.\1\
On May 1, 2024, the ITC instituted,\2\ and Commerce initiated,\3\ the
first sunset review of the Orders, pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). As a result of its reviews,
Commerce determined that revocation of the Orders would likely lead to
the continuation or recurrence of dumping, and 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\
