SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 1, 2016, the Department
published the notice of initiation of the
fourth sunset review of the antidumping
duty orders on lock washers from
Taiwan and the PRC pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).1 On November 4,
2016, the Department received a notice
of intent to participate in both of these
reviews from Shakeproof Assembly
Components Division of Illinois Tool
Works Inc. (the petitioner), within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i). The petitioner claimed
interested party status for both of these
reviews under section 771(9)(C) of the
Act, as a producer of the domestic like
product.
On December 1, 2016, the Department
received a complete substantive
response from the petitioner for both
reviews, within the deadline specified
in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). We received
no substantive responses from any
respondent interested parties. 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 antidumping duty orders.
