SUMMARY: On August 1, 2006, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’) order
on steel concrete reinforcing bars
(‘‘rebar’’) from South Korea. Pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’), the
International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’)
determined that revocation of this order
would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. Therefore, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.222(i)(1)(iii), the Department is
revoking the AD order on rebar from
South Korea.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 7, 2006.
