SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Background
On February 23, 2001, the Department
published the final results of
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on silicon
metal from Brazil for the period July 1,
1998, through June 30, 1999. See Silicon
Metal from Brazil; Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review and Determination Not to
Revoke in Part; 66 FR 11256 (February
23, 2001) (Final Results). CBCC and
Electrosilex filed a lawsuit challenging
certain aspects of the Final Results.
Specifically, CBCC argued that the
Department used an incorrect interest
rate to calculate its home market
imputed credit expense, while
Electrosilex asserted that the
Department’s decision to apply total
adverse facts available (AFA) was not in
accordance with law and unsupported
by record evidence. On April 15, 2004,
the CIT remanded this case back to the
Department and instructed it ’’...to
impute anew (1) CBCC’s home–market
credit costs and (2) Electrosilex’s margin
of dumping for the period of review
implicated that is in accordance with
law and supported by substantial
evidence on the record.’’ See Elkem
Metals Company and Globe
Metallurgical Inc., v. United States, Slip
Op. 04–36. The Department issued its
final results of remand redetermination
on July 14, 2004. See Remand
Redetermination. On October 6, 2005,
the CIT affirmed the Department’s final
results of remand redetermination in
their entirety.
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
determination. 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 of unliquidated
entries pending the expiration of the
period to appeal the CIT’s October 6,
2005, decision affirming the
Department’s remand results or pending
a final decision of the CAFC if that
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 208001
decision is appealed. Upon expiration of
the period to appeal, or if the CIT’s
decision is appealed and the CAFC’s
decision is not in harmony with the
Department’s determination in the Final
Results, the Department will publish in
the Federal Register a notice of
amended final results for the 1998–1999
administrative review of silicon metal
from Brazil.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with section
516A(c)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended.
Dated: October 26, 2005.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.

NMFS has conducted six public

assist fishery participants comply with
the requirements of the Program. At
these workshops, NMFS reviewed the
Program, discussed the key Program
elements, and provided information on

two workshops were held in Seattle,

and provide an opportunity for public
comments. Program elements related to
economic data collection, monitoring
and enforcement, electronic reporting,
quota share and individual fishing quota
