SUMMARY: On November 1, 2006, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated the first sunset reviews of the antidumping 
duty orders on certain welded large diameter line pipe (``welded large 
diameter pipe'') from Japan and Mexico, 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 no 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: March 8, 2007.

from Japan and Mexico, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act. See 
Initiation of Five-year (``Sunset'') Reviews, 71 FR 64242 (November 1, 
2006). The Department received a Notice of Intent to Participate from 
American Steel Pipe Division of ACIPCO, Berg Steel Pipe Corporation, 
Dura-Bond Pipe LLC, Oregon Steel Mills, and Stupp Corp. (collectively 
``domestic interested parties''), within the deadline specified in 
section 351.218(d)(1)(i) of the Department's regulations. Domestic 
interested parties claimed interested party status under section
