On September 24, 2020, the petitioner
timely withdrew its request for an
administrative review for all 23
companies.5
Rescission of Administrative Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the parties that requested a
review withdraw the request within 90
days of the date of publication of the
notice of initiation of the requested
review. The petitioner withdrew its
request for review for all companies by
the 90-day deadline, and no other party
requested an administrative review of
this order. Therefore, we are rescinding
the administrative review of the AD
order on certain steel nails from
Vietnam covering the period July 1,
2019, through June 30, 2020, in its
entirety.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. Antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Consistent with its
recent notice,6 Commerce intends to
issue assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a
timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only
reminder to importers of their
responsibility, under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2), to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement may result in the
presumption that reimbursement of
antidumping duties occurred and the

Prestressed Concrete Steel Wire
Strand From the People’s Republic of
China: Continuation of Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Orders
Enforcement and Compliance,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: As a result of the
determinations by the Department of
Commerce (Commerce) and the
International Trade Commission (ITC)
that revocation of the antidumping duty
(AD) and countervailing duty (CVD)
orders on prestressed concrete steel wire
strand (PC strand) from the People’s
Republic of China (China) would likely
lead to a continuation or recurrence of
dumping, net countervailable subsidies,
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, Commerce is publishing
a notice of continuation of the AD and
CVD orders.

Background
On September 1, 2020, the ITC
instituted,1 and Commerce initiated,2
the second sunset reviews of the AD and
CVD orders on PC strand from China,3
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930 as amended (the Act). As a
result of its reviews, Commerce
determined that revocation of the
Orders would likely lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and of net countervailable subsidies
and, therefore, Commerce notified the
ITC of the magnitude of the margin of
dumping and subsidy rates likely to
prevail should the Orders be revoked,
pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and
752(b) and (c) of the Act.4
On May 4, 2021, the ITC published its
determination, pursuant to sections
751(c) and 752(a) of the Act, that
revocation of the Orders would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time.5
Scope of the Orders
The product covered by the Orders is
PC strand, produced from wire of nonstainless, non-galvanized steel, which 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
inches in diameter. PC strand made
from galvanized wire is only excluded
from the scope if the zinc and/or zinc
oxide coating meets or exceeds the 0.40
oz./ft2 standard set forth in ASTM–A–
475. Imports of the subject merchandise

subheadings 7312.10.3010 and

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
Although the HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
scope of these orders is dispositive.
Continuation of the Orders
As a result of the determinations by
Commerce and the ITC that revocation
of the Orders would likely lead to a
continuation or a recurrence of dumping
and net countervailable subsidies, as
well as material injury to an industry in
the United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(a), Commerce hereby orders the
continuation of the Orders on PC strand
from China.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
will continue to collect AD and CVD
cash deposits at the rates in effect at the
time of entry for all imports of subject
merchandise. The effective date of the
continuation of the Orders will be the
date of publication in the Federal
Register of this notice of continuation.
Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.218(c)(2), Commerce
intends to initiate the next five-year
reviews of the Orders not later than 30
days prior to the fifth anniversary of the
effective date of continuation.
Notification to Interested Parties
These five-year sunset reviews and
this notice are in accordance with
sections 751(c) and 751(d)(2) of the Act
and published in accordance with
section 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(f)(4).
