**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**Background**
On December 29, 2004, Commerce published the antidumping duty orders on CVP-23 from India and China. [^1] On October 1, 2020, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the third sunset reviews of the *Orders,* pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act). [^2] On October 9, 2020, Commerce received a notice of intent to participate in these sunset reviews from Sun Chemical Corporation (Sun Chemical), a petitioner in the original investigation, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). [^3] Sun Chemical claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as a domestic producer of CVP-23. On October 30, 2020, Sun Chemical provided complete substantive responses for these reviews within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). [^4] Commerce received no substantive responses from any other interested parties, nor was a hearing requested. On November 20, 2020, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent interested parties. [^5] As a result, Commerce conducted expedited (120-day) sunset reviews of the *Orders,* pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2).
