SUMMARY: On January 4, 2017, the Department of Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’) published its initiation and preliminary results of a changed circumstances review (‘‘CCR’’) and stated its intention to revoke, in part, the antidumping duty order on certain cold-rolled steel flat products from Japan (the ‘‘Order’’). The Department preliminarily determined that producers accounting for substantially all of the domestic production of the like product had no interest in the continued application of the Order with respect to certain light gauge cold-rolled flat-rolled steel meeting the requirements of ASTM A424 Type 1. For the final results, the Department is revoking, in part, the Order with respect to the cold-rolled steel flat products described above. DATES: Effective March 2, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background On January 4, 2017, the Department published a notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent to Revoke Order in Part.1 In the Preliminary Results, the Department determined that five domestic producers,2 which account for 1 See Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Japan: Initiation and Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent to Revoke Order in Part, 82 FR 821 (January 4, 2017) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’). 2 The five domestic producers are ArcelorMittal USA LLC, AK Steel Corporation, Nucor PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 12337 ‘‘substantially all’’ of the cold-rolled steel production in the United States,3 expressed a lack of interest with respect to certain light gauge cold-rolled flatrolled steel meeting the requirements of ASTM A424 Type 1. As a result, the Department preliminarily determined that the domestic industry producing the like product has no interest in the continued application of the Order with respect to the above-referenced merchandise. We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results.4 ArcelorMittal USA LLC (‘‘ArcelorMittal’’) was the only interested party that submitted comments.5 Specifically, ArcelorMittal asked the Department to modify language describing Petitioners’ scope exclusion request in the narrative portion of the Preliminary Results to reflect more closely the language contained in Petitioners’ proposed scope.6 On February 9, 2017, the Department extended the deadline for issuance of the final results of this CCR, and requested additional information from Petitioners regarding the proposed scope language.7 On February 16, 2017, Petitioners submitted a letter containing a modification to their proposed exclusionary language, in which they proposed removing the words ‘‘for porcelain enameling’’ from the exclusion language.8 No interested party commented in response to Petitioners’ proposed modification. Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Revocation of the Order, in Part After an analysis of the comments received, the Department continues to find that ‘‘substantially all’’ of the domestic industry has no interest in the continued application of the Order with Corporation, Steel Dynamics Inc., and United States Steel Corporation (collectively, ‘‘Petitioners’’). 3 See Preliminary Results, 82 FR at 823. 4 See id. at 824. 5 See Letter from ArcelorMittal to Department, ‘‘Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Japan—Comments on the Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Intent to Revoke Order in Part,’’ dated January 18, 2017 (‘‘ArcelorMittal Comments’’). 6 The modified scope was attached as Appendix 1 to the Preliminary Results. 7 See Memo to the file, ‘‘Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review, and Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order, in Part—Extension of Final,’’ dated February 9, 2017. 8 See Letter from Petitioners to Department, ‘‘Certain Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Japan—Changed Circumstances Review and Partial Revocation Request—Response to the Department’s Request to Remove Certain Language from the Proposed Amended Scope of the Order,’’ dated February 16, 2017 (‘‘Petitioners’ Amendment to Exclusionary Language’’).
