**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**Background**
On September 17, 2001, Commerce published the antidumping duty order on foundry coke from China. [^1] On April 3, 2023, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the five-year sunset review of the *Order,* pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). [^2] On April 18, 2023, Commerce received a notice of intent to participate in this review from ABC Coke and SunCoke Energy, Inc. (collectively, domestic interested parties) within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). [^3] The domestic interested parties claimed interested party status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act as manufacturers of a domestic like product in the United States. On May 3, 2023, the domestic interested parties provided a complete substantive response for this review within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). [^4] We received no substantive responses from any other interested parties, nor was a hearing requested. On May 26, 2023, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent 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 this *Order.*

**Scope of the Order**
The product covered under the *Order* is coke larger than 100 mm (4 inches) in maximum diameter and at least 50 percent of which is retained on a 100 mm (4 inch) sieve, of a kind used in foundries. The foundry coke products subject to the *Order* were classifiable under subheading 2704.00.00.10 (as of January 1, 2000) and are currently classifiable under subheading 2704.00.00.11 (as of July 1, 2000) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and Customs purposes, our written description of the scope of the *Order* is dispositive. [^6]

**Final Results of Sunset Review**
Pursuant to sections 751(c)(1) and 752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, Commerce determines that revocation of the *Order* would be likely to lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping, and that the magnitude of the dumping margins likely to prevail would be weighted-average dumping margins up to 214.89 percent.
