The International Trade Administration is giving advance notice that it and the International Trade Commission will consider revoking the antidumping duty orders on light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from China (A-570-914), Korea (A-580-859), and Mexico (A-201-836); antidumping duty orders on polyethylene terephthalate film from India (A-533-824) and Taiwan (A-583-837); and countervailing duty orders on polyethylene terephthalate film from India (C-533-825) and China (C-570-914) in their automatic five-year sunset reviews scheduled to begin in April. Advance notice is given because automatic sunset reviews have short deadlines. An order will be revoked unless the ITA finds that revocation would lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and the ITC finds that revocation would result in continuation or recurrence of material injury to a U.S. industry. As a result, a negative determination by either the ITA or the ITC would result in the revocation of the order.
