- [C-570-942]
AGENCY:
Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY:
The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) finds that revocation of the countervailing duty (CVD) order on certain kitchen appliance shelving and racks (kitchen racks) from the People's Republic of China (China) would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of countervailable subsidies at the levels indicated in the “Final Results of Sunset Review” section of this notice.
DATES:
Applicable March 12, 2026.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David De Falco, Trade Agreements Policy and Negotiations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: 202-482-2178.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 14, 2009, Commerce published the Order on kitchen racks from China. [1 ] On August 1, 2025, Commerce published the notice of initiation of the third sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.218(c). [2 ]
On September 16, 2025, Commerce received a notice of intent to participate in this review from the Nashville Wire Products and SSW Advanced Technologies (collectively, the domestic interested parties), within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). [3 ] The domestic interested parties claim interested party status within the meaning of section 771(9)(C) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.102(b)(29)(vii) as manufacturers, producers, or wholesalers a domestic like product in the United States. [4 ]
On October 2, 2025, Commerce received an adequate substantive response from the domestic interested parties, within the 30-day deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). [5 ] Commerce did not receive a substantive response from either the Government of China or a respondent interested party to this proceeding. On December 8, 2025, Commerce notified the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that it did not receive an adequate substantive response from respondent interested parties. [6 ] As a result, Commerce conducted an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the Order, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B)(2) and (C)(2).
Due to the lapse in appropriations and Federal Government shutdown, on November 14, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by 47 days. [7 ] Additionally, due to a backlog of documents that were electronically filed via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (ACCESS) during the Federal Government shutdown, on November 24, 2025, Commerce tolled all deadlines in administrative proceedings by an additional 21 days. [8 ] Accordingly, the deadline for these final results is now March 9, 2026.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this Order is certain kitchen appliance shelving and racks from China. For the full description of the scope of the Order, see the Issues and Decisions Memorandum. [9 ]

The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via ACCESS, which is available to registered users at https://access.trade.gov.
