deposit requirements will be effective
upon completion of the final results of
this administrative review for all
shipments of stainless steel butt–weld
pipe fittings from Korea entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication
date of the final results of this
administrative review, as provided by
section 751(a)(1) of the Act:
1) The cash deposit rate for the
reviewed company will be the rate
established in the final results of review
except if a rate is less than 0.50 percent,
and therefore de minimis within the
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1) in
which case the cash deposit rate will be
zero;
2) For any previously reviewed or
investigated company not listed above,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company–specific rate published in
the most recent period;
3) If the exporter is not a firm covered
in this review, a prior review, or the less
than fair value (LTFV) investigation, but
the manufacturer is, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the
most recent period for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; and
4) If neither the exporter nor the
manufacturer is a firm covered in this or
any previous review conducted by the
Department, the cash deposit rate will
be the ‘‘all others’’ rate from the LTFV
investigation (21.2 percent). See Notice
of Final Determination of Sales at Less
Than Fair Value; Certain Welded
Stainless Steel Butt–Weld Pipe Fittings
From Korea, 58 FR 11029 (February 23,
1993).
Notice to Importers
This notice also serves as a
preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
§ 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping
duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this review
period. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: October 31, 2005.

Stainless Steel Wire Rods from Brazil,

Results of Five-year (Sunset) Reviews
of Antidumping Duty Orders
Import Administration,

Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On July 1, 2005, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) initiated the second sunset
reviews of the antidumping duty orders
on stainless steel wire rods from Brazil,
France and India, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). On the basis of
notices of intent to participate and
adequate substantive responses filed on
behalf of the domestic interested parties
and inadequate response from
respondent interested parties, the
Department has conducted expedited
sunset reviews of these antidumping
duty orders. As a result of these sunset
reviews, the Department finds that
revocation of the antidumping duty
orders would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping at the level
indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of
Reviews’’ section of this notice.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 7, 2005.

AGENCY:
Background
On December 1, 1993, the Department
published the Antidumping Duty Order:
Certain Stainless Steel Wire Rods from
India, 58 FR 63335 (December 1, 1993).
On January 28, 1994, the Department
published the Antidumping Duty Order:
Certain Stainless Steel Wire Rods from
Brazil, 59 FR 4021 and the Amended
Final Determination and Antidumping
Duty Order: Certain Stainless Steel Wire
Rods from France, 59 FR 4022. On
August 2, 2000, the Department
published the Continuation of
Antidumping Duty Orders: Stainless

stainless steel wire rods from Brazil,

751(c) of the Act. See Initiation of Fiveyear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 70 FR 38101
(July 1, 2005). The Department received
a notice of intent to participate from
Carpenter Technology Corporation,
Charter Specialty Steel, and Universal &
Alloy Products, Inc. (collectively, the
domestic interested parties), within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i). The domestic
interested parties claimed interested
party status under section 771(9)(C) of
the Act as U.S. producers of the
domestic like product.
We received a complete substantive
response to the notice of initiation from
the domestic interested parties within
the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no
responses from respondent interested
parties to this proceeding. As a result,
pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2),
the Department conducted expedited
sunset reviews of these orders.
Scope of the Orders
Imports covered by these orders are
certain stainless steel wire rods (SSWR)
from Brazil, France and 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 of
chromium, with or without other
elements. These products are only
manufactured by hot–rolling and
normally sold in coiled form, and are
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.
The merchandise subject to these
orders is currently classifiable under
subheadings 7221.00.0005,
7221.00.0015, 7221.00.0030,
7221.00.0045, 7221.00.0075 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS).1 The HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes. The
written description remains dispositive.
