will be the rates determined in the final
results of review (except that if a rate is
de minimis, i.e., less than 0.50 percent,
no cash deposit will be required); (2) the
cash deposit rate for PRC exporters who
received a separate rate in a prior
segment of the proceeding (which were
not reviewed in this segment of the
proceeding) will continue to be the rate
assigned in that segment of the
proceeding (i.e., Luqi, Shenyang
Yinghao, and Xumingyuan); (3) the cash
deposit rate for the PRC NME entity
(including Huanri General and Rotec)
will continue to be 43.32 percent; and
(4) the cash deposit rate for non–PRC
exporters of subject merchandise from
the PRC will be the rate applicable to
the PRC exporter that supplied that
exporter.
These requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until publication
of the final results of the next
administrative review.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
These administrative and new shipper
reviews and notice are in accordance
with sections 751(a)(1), 751(a)(2)(B), and
777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213
and 351.214.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) published an
antidumping duty order on certain
corrosion–resistant carbon steel flat
products from Japan on August 19,
1993. See Antidumping Duty Order:
Certain Corrosion–Resistant Carbon
Steel Flat Products from Japan, 58 FR
44163 (August 19, 1993). Nucor
Corporation (‘‘Nucor’’), the petitioner,
requested that the Department conduct
an administrative review of the order.
See Letter from Nucor Corporation,
August 31, 2004. On September 22,
2004, the Department published a notice
of initiation of administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on certain
corrosion–resistant carbon steel flat
products from Japan, covering the
period of August 1, 2003, to July 31,
2004. See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Request for Revocation, In
Part, 69 FR 56745. The preliminary
results for this review are currently due
no later than May 3, 2005.
Extension of Time Limits for
Preliminary Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue the
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested. If it is not
practicable to complete the review
within the time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and section
351.213(h)(2) of the Department’s
regulations allow the Department to
extend this deadline to a maximum of
365 days.
Both respondents, JFE and Nippon
Steel, have declined to participate in
this review. As such, the Department
will apply adverse facts available
pursuant to section 776(a) and (b) of the
Act. The Department has continuing
concerns about what the appropriate
rate is to assign to JFE and Nippon Steel
as adverse facts available. Therefore, the
Department determines that it is not
practicable to complete the review
within the original time period, and is
extending the time limit for completion
of the preliminary results by 30 days to
PO 00000

no later than June 2, 2005. We intend to

days after publication of the notice of
the preliminary results. This notice is
being issued and published in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act.

SUMMARY: On February 2, 2005, the
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) initiated the sunset
reviews of the antidumping duty orders
on sodium thiosulfate from the People’s
Republic of China, Germany and the
United Kingdom (70 FR 5415). Because
the domestic interested parties did not
participate in these sunset reviews, the
Department is revoking these
antidumping duty orders.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 7, 2005

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On February 19, 1991, the Department
issued antidumping duty orders on
sodium thiosulfate from the People’s
Republic of China, Germany, and the
United Kingdom (56 FR 2904). On July
1, 1999, the Department initiated sunset
reviews on these orders and later
published its notice of continuation of
the antidumping duty orders. See
Continuation of Antidumping Duty
Orders: Sulfur Chemicals (Sodium
Thiosulfate) from the Untied Kingdom,
Germany and the People’s Republic of
China, 65 FR 11985 (March 7, 2000). On
February 2, 2005, the Department
initiated the second sunset reviews of
these orders.

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 88 / Monday, May 9, 2005 / Notices
We did not receive a notice of intent
to participate from domestic interested
parties in any of these sunset reviews by
the deadline dates. See 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(iii)(A). As a result, the
Department determined that no
domestic interested party intends to
participate in the sunset reviews, and on
October 21, 2004, we notified the
International Trade Commission, in
writing, that we intended to issue a final
determination revoking these
antidumping duty orders. See 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(2).
Scope of the Orders:
The merchandise covered by these
orders includes all grades of sodium
thiosulfate, in dry or liquid from, used
primarily to dechlorinate industrial
waste water, from the People’s Republic
of China, Germany, and the United
Kingdom. The chemical composition of
sodium thiosulfate is Na2S203.
Currently, subject merchandise is
classified under item number
2832.30.1000 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTS’’).
The above HTSUS subheading is
provided for convenience and customs
purposes. The written description
remains dispositive.
Determination to Revoke
Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(3),
if no domestic interested party files a
notice of intent to participate, the
Department shall issue a final
determination revoking the order within
90 days after the initiation of the review.
Because the domestic interested parties
did not file a notice of intent to
participate in these sunset reviews, the
Department finds that no domestic
interested party is participating in these
sunset reviews. Therefore, consistent
with 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i) and section
751(c)(6)(A)(iii) of the Act, we are
revoking these antidumping duty orders
effective March 7, 2005, the fifth
anniversary of the date the Department
published the continuation of the
antidumping duty orders.
Effective Date of Revocation
Pursuant to sections 751(c)(3)(A) and
751(c)(6)(A)(iii) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.222(i)(2)(i), the Department will
instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to terminate the suspension
of liquidation of the merchandise
subject to these orders entered, or
withdrawn from warehouse, on or after
March 7, 2005. Entries of subject
merchandise prior to the effective date
of revocation will continue to be subject
to suspension of liquidation and
antidumping duty deposit requirements.
The Department will complete any

pending administrative reviews of these
orders and will conduct administrative
reviews of subject merchandise entered
prior to the effective date of revocation
in response to appropriately filed
requests for review.
These five-year (sunset) reviews and
notice are in accordance with sections
751(c) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Solid Urea from Ukraine; Final Results
of the Expedited Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On October 1, 2004, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’) order
on solid urea from Ukraine pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation
of Five-year (Sunset) Reviews, 69 FR
58890 (October 1, 2004). On the basis of
a notice of intent to participate, an
adequate substantive response filed on
behalf of the domestic interested parties,
and inadequate response from
respondent interested parties (in this
case, no response), the Department
conducted an expedited sunset review
of this order pursuant to section
751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and section
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(B) of the Department’s
regulations. As a result of this sunset
review, the Department finds that
revocation of the AD order would likely
lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping at the levels indicated in the
‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this
notice.
EFFECTIVE DATE: May 9, 2005.

Department received a Notice of Intent
to Participate from the following
domestic interested parties: the Ad Hoc
Committee of Domestic Nitrogen
Producers, (consisting of CF Industries,
Inc. and PCS Nitrogen Fertilizer, LP
(collectively ‘‘the Ad Hoc Committee’’)),
and Agrium U.S., Inc. (collectively ‘‘the
domestic interested parties’’) within the

regulations. The domestic interested
parties claimed interested party status
under sections 771(9)(C) and (D) of the
Act, as domestic manufacturers of urea
or coalition whose members are engaged
in the production of urea in the United
States. The Department received a
complete substantive response
collectively from the domestic
interested parties within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3)(i). However, the
Department did not receive any
responses from the respondent
interested parties to this proceeding. As
a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B)
of the Act and 19 CFR
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department
conducted an expedited sunset review
of this antidumping duty order.
Scope of the Order:
The merchandise covered by this
order is solid urea, a high–nitrogen
content fertilizer which is produced by
reacting ammonia with carbon dioxide.
The product is currently classified
under the Harmonized Tariff Schedules
of the United States Annotated (‘‘HTS’’)
item 3102.10.00.00. During previous
reviews such merchandise was
classified under item number 480.3000
of the Tariff Schedules of the United
States. The HTS item number is
provided for convenience and customs
purposes. The written description
remains dispositive as the scope of the
product coverage.

finds that no domestic interested party is participating in these
sunset reviews. Therefore, consistent with 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i) and
section 751(c)(6)(A)(iii) of the Act, we are revoking these antidumping
duty orders effective March 7, 2005, the fifth anniversary of the date
