SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(Commerce) finds that revocation of the

carbonate from the People’s Republic of
China (China) would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at the levels indicated in the ‘‘Final
Results of Sunset Review’’ section of
this notice.

AGENCY:
Background
On October 1, 2003, Commerce
published the Order on barium
carbonate from China.1 On January 2,
2019, Commerce published the notice of
1 See Antidumping Duty Order: Barium Carbonate
from the People’s Republic of China, 68 FR 56619
(October 1, 2003) (Order).

initiation of the five-year sunset review
of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act).2 On January 13, 2020,
Commerce received a notice of intent to
participate in this review from Chemical
Products Corporation (CPC) within the
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i).3 CPC claimed
interested party status under section
771(9)(C) of the Act as a manufacturer
of a domestic like product in the United
States. On January 29, 2020, CPC
provided a complete substantive
response for this review within the 30day deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i).4 We received no
substantive responses from any other
interested parties, nor was a hearing
requested. On February 25, 2020,
Commerce notified the U.S.
International Trade Commission (ITC)
that it did not receive an adequate
substantive response from respondent
interested parties.5 As a result, pursuant
to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce
conducted an expedited (120-day)
sunset review of this Order.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
barium carbonate, regardless of form or
grade. The product covered by this
order is currently classifiable under
subheading 2836.60.0000 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). Although the
HTSUS subheading is provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
written description of the scope of this
proceeding is dispositive.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in this review,
including the likelihood of continuation
or recurrence of dumping in the event
of revocation and the magnitude of the
margins likely to prevail if the order
were revoked, are addressed in the
accompanying Issues and Decision
Memorandum. A list of topics discussed
in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum is included as an
appendix to this notice. The Issues and
Decision Memorandum is a public
