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 the Order.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the Order is

suitable for use in prestressed concrete
(both pretensioned and post-tensioned)
applications. The product definition
encompasses covered and uncovered
strand and all types, grades, and
diameters of PC strand. PC strand is
normally sold in the United States in
sizes ranging from 0.25 inches to 0.70

from galvanized wire is only excluded

oxide coating meets or exceeds the 0.40

scope of this order is dispositive.
