SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 14, 2009, Commerce published the Order in the Federal
Register.\1\ On September 2, 2025, Commerce published the notice of
initiation of the third sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.218(C).\2\ On September 16, 2025, Commerce received a timely and
complete notice of intent to participate in the sunset review for
domestic interested parties within the deadline specified in the 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i).\3\ The domestic interested parties claimed the
interested party status within the meaning of section 771(9)(C) of the
Act as manufacturers of the domestic like product in the United
States.\4\ On September 29, 2025, Commerce notified the U.S.
International Trade Commission (ITC) that it had received a notice of
intent to participate from the domestic interested party.\5\

On October 10, 2025, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i), domestic
interested parties filed a timely and adequate substantive response.\6\
Commerce did not receive a substantive response from any respondent
interested party. On December 8, 2025, Commerce notified the ITC that
it did not receive substantive response from any respondent interested
parties.\7\ As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce is conducting an expedited
(120-day) sunset review of the Order.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown,
on November 14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative
proceedings by 47 days.\8\ Additionally, due to a backlog of documents
that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service
System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24,
2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an
additional 21 days.\9\ Accordingly, the deadline for these final
results is now March 9, 2026.
