with a minimum absorbed dose of 150
Gray for fruit flies and follow the
requirements of part 305. If the
approved irradiation treatment is
applied outside the United States, each
consignment of fruit must be precleared
by APHIS inspectors in Colombia.
Treatment must occur in a pestexclusionary treatment facility or, if
irradiation is to be applied upon arrival
in the United States, each consignment
of fruit must be inspected by the NPPO
prior to departure and accompanied by
a phytosanitary certificate issued by the
NPPO. Mangos intended to be irradiated
in the United States must be shipped in
APHIS-approved packaging that
prevents escape of any Anastrepha spp.
or Medfly larvae or adults.
• All hot water or irradiation
treatment facilities in Colombia to be
used for mangos are subject to APHIS
approval. APHIS reserves the right to
require oversight visits in the event of
pest interceptions or other problems.
• Mango fruit must be safeguarded
from exposure to Anastrepha spp. or
Medfly from the time of treatment to
export. The package containing mango
fruit may not contain any other fruit,
including mango fruit not qualified for
importation into the United States.
• Each consignment must be
inspected jointly by inspectors from
APHIS and the NPPO and accompanied
by a phytosanitary certificate issued by
the NPPO.
• If more than one Ceratitis capitata
or Anastrepha spp. or one Neosilba
glaberrima is detected in a consignment,
the consignment may not be exported to
the United States.
• Each consignment is subject to
inspection at the U.S. ports of entry.
In addition to these specific measures,
fresh mango fruit from Colombia would
be subject to the general requirements
listed in § 319.56–3 that are applicable
to the importation of all fruits and
vegetables.
Therefore, in accordance with
§ 319.56–4(c), we are announcing the
availability of our PRA and RMD for
public review and comment. Those
documents, as well as a description of
the economic considerations associated
with the importation of fresh mango
fruit from Colombia, may be viewed on
the Regulations.gov website or in our
reading room (see ADDRESSES above for
a link to Regulations.gov and
information on the location and hours of

After reviewing any comments we
receive, we will announce our decision
regarding the import status of fresh
mango fruit from Colombia in a
subsequent notice. If the overall
conclusions of our analysis and the

remain unchanged following our
consideration of the comments, then we
will authorize the importation of fresh
mango fruit from Colombia into the
United States subject to the
requirements specified in the RMD.

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 boltless steel shelving units
prepackaged for sale from the People’s
Republic of China (China) would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping, 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.
DATES: Applicable May 12, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 21, 2015, Commerce
published the AD and CVD orders on
boltless steel shelving from China.1 On
September 1, 2020, the ITC instituted,2
and Commerce initiated, the first sunset
review of the Orders, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (the Act).3 As a result of its
review, Commerce determined that
revocation of the Orders would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping and countervailable subsidies
and, therefore, notified the ITC of the
magnitude of the margins and net
countervailable subsidy rates likely to
prevail should the Orders be revoked.4
On May 5, 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 scope of the Orders covers
boltless steel shelving units
prepackaged for sale, with or without
decks (boltless steel shelving). The term
‘‘prepackaged for sale’’ means that, at a
minimum, the steel vertical supports
(i.e., uprights and posts) and steel
horizontal supports (i.e., beams, braces)
necessary to assemble a completed
shelving unit (with or without decks)
are packaged together for ultimate
purchase by the end-user. The scope
also includes add-on kits. Add-on kits
include, but are not limited to, kits that
allow the end-user to add an extension
shelving unit onto an existing boltless
steel shelving unit such that the
