Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 181 / Tuesday, September 20, 2005 / Notices
Background
On February 12, 2002, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of final results of the
antidumping duty administrative review
on silicon metal from Brazil. See Silicon
Metal From Brazil: Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 67 FR 6488 (February 12, 2002)
(Final Results). Following publication of
the Final Results, Elkem Metals
Company and Globe Metallurgical Inc.
(collectively petitioners), filed a lawsuit
with the CIT challenging the
Department’s findings in the Final
Results, regarding the calculation of
Rima’s constructed value (CV). In Elkem
Metals Company and Globe
Metallurgical Inc. v. United States, No.
02–00232, (CIT February 25, 2004)
(Elkem Metals I), the CIT remanded this
matter to the Department for it to
recalculate Rima’s CV to include certain
value–added taxes (VAT). In its Final
Results of Redetermination Pursuant to
Court Remand (Remand Results I), filed
on June 8, 2004, in response to Elkem
Metals I, the Department determined
that such VAT were not incurred by
Rima and therefore did not constitute a
material cost for purposes of calculating
CV. Consequently, in Remand Results I,
the Department found that no
adjustment was necessary to Rima’s CV.
In Elkem Metals Company and Globe
Metallurgical Inc. v. United States, 350
F. Supp 2d 1270 (CIT 2004) (Elkem
Metals II), the CIT once again instructed
the Department to include VAT paid by
Rima in the re–calculation of CV and to
make any necessary adjustments to the
dumping margin.
The Draft Results of Redetermination
Pursuant to Court Remand (Draft
Remand Results II) were released to
parties on January 24, 2005. The
Department received comments from
interested parties on the Draft Remand
Results II on January 24, 2005, and
rebuttal comments on February 4, 2005.
On March 16, 2005, the Department
responded to the CIT’s Order of Remand
by filing the Remand Results II. In
Remand Results II, pursuant to the CIT’s
order, the Department included VAT
paid by Rima in the re–calculation of
CV.
As a result of the remand
determination, the antidumping duty
rate for Rima was increased from 0.35
percent to 0.48 percent. The CIT did not
receive comments from either
petitioners or Rima.
On August 26, 2005, the CIT affirmed
the Department’s findings in Remand
Results II. Specifically, the CIT upheld
the Department’s inclusion of VAT in
Rima’s CV. See Elkem Metals III..
VerDate Aug<31>2005
14:53 Sep 19, 2005
Jkt 205001
The only revision made to the Final
Results was the inclusion of VAT in the
calculation of Rima’s CV, as noted
above. This revision resulted in a
change in Rima’s margin. However,
Rima continues to have a de minimis
margin, as it had in the Final Results.
Suspension of Liquidation
The CAFC, in Timken, held that the
Department must publish notice of a
decision of the CIT or the CAFC which
is not ‘‘in harmony’’ with the
Department’s final determination or
results. Publication of this notice fulfills
that obligation. The CAFC also held that
the Department must suspend
liquidation of the subject merchandise
until there is a ‘‘conclusive’’ decision in
the case. Therefore, pursuant to Timken,
the Department must continue to
suspend liquidation pending the
expiration of the period to appeal the
CIT’s August 26, 2005, decision, or, if
that decision is appealed, pending a
final decision by the CAFC. The
Department will instruct CBP to revise
cash deposit rates, as appropriate, and
to liquidate relevant entries covering the
subject merchandise effective
September 20, 2005, in the event that
the CIT’s ruling is not appealed, or if
appealed and upheld by the CAFC.
Dated: September 14, 2005.

Administration.
