SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 1, 2005, the Department
initiated and the ITC instituted a sunset
review of the antidumping duty order
on glycine from the PRC pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation
of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 70 FR
31423 (June 1, 2005), and ITC
Investigation No. 731–TA–718 (Second
Review), Glycine from China, 70 FR
31534 (June 1, 2005). As a result of its
review, the Department found that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping and notified
the ITC of the magnitude of the margins
likely to prevail were the order to be
revoked. See Glycine from the People’s
Republic of China; Final Results of the
Expedited Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order, 70 FR 58185
(October 5, 2005). On October 31, 2005,
the ITC determined, pursuant to
sections 751(c) and 752 of the Act, that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order on glycine from the PRC would
likely lead to continuation or recurrence
of material injury to an industry in the
United States within a reasonably
foreseeable time.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
glycine, which is a free–flowing
crystalline material, like salt or sugar.
Glycine is produced at varying levels of
purity and is used as a sweetener/taste
enhancer, a buffering agent,
reabsorbable amino acid, chemical
intermediate, and a metal complexing
agent. This order covers glycine of all
purity levels. Glycine is currently
classified under subheading
2922.49.4020 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). In a separate scope ruling,
the Department determined that D(-)
Phenylglycine Ethyl Dane Salt is outside
the scope of the order. See Notice of

Inquiries, 62 FR 62288 (November 21,
1997). Although the HTSUS subheading
is provided for convenience and
customs purposes, the written
description of the merchandise under
the order is dispositive.
Determination
As a result of the determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would likely lead to continuation
or recurrence of dumping and material
injury to an industry in the United
States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of
the Act, the Department hereby orders
the continuation of the antidumping
duty order on glycine from the PRC.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection will
continue to collect antidumping duty
cash deposits at the rates in effect at the
time of entry for all imports of subject
merchandise.
The effective date of continuation of
this order will be the date of publication
in the Federal Register of this Notice of
Continuation. Pursuant to sections
751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the Act, the
Department intends to initiate the next
five-year review of this order not later
than October 2010.
This five-year (sunset) review and
notice are in accordance with section
751(c) of the Act and published
pursuant to section 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: November 7, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 1, 2005, the Department
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain hot–
rolled carbon steel flat products from
Brazil for the period of review (POR) of
March 1, 2004, through February 28,
2005. See Notice of Opportunity to
Request Administrative Review of
Antidumping Duty Order, Finding or
Suspended Investigation, 70 FR 9918
(March 1, 2005). On March 31, 2005,
United States Steel Corporation (USSC)
and Nucor Corporation (Nucor),
domestic producers of the subject
merchandise, made timely requests that
the Department conduct an
administrative review of CSN and CST.
On April 22, 2005, in accordance with
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930
as amended (the Act), the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of this antidumping
duty administrative review. See Notice
of Initiation of Antidumping Duty and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 70 FR 20862 (April 22, 2005).
On April 28, 2005, the Department
issued its antidumping duty
questionnaire to CSN and CST. Both
CSN and CST requested rescission of
this administrative review, CSN
certifying that there were no shipments
or entries of subject merchandise during
the POR, and CST certifying that the
only shipments or entries it had during
the POR were being reviewed by the
Department as part of a new shipper
review. On October 7, 2005, after
conducting an internal customs data
query to confirm these certifications, the
Department published in the Federal
Register its notice of intent to rescind
this administrative review, and invited
comments from interested parties. See
Certain Hot–Rolled Carbon Steel Flat
Products from Brazil: Notice of Intent to
Rescind Administrative Review, 70 FR
58680 (October 7, 2005) (Notice of
Intent to Rescind). The Department did
not receive comments from any
interested party.

Rescission of Administrative Review
On October 7, 2005, the Department
published in the Federal Register its
intent to rescind the administrative
review. As noted above, CSN certified
that it did not have any shipments or
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR and CST certified that the only
shipments or entries of subject
merchandise it had during the POR
were being reviewed by the Department
as part of a new shipper review of CST
for the period March 1, 2004, through
August 31, 2004. See Notice of Intent to
Rescind. The Department conducted an
internal customs data query to confirm
that CSN had no entries of subject
merchandise into the United States
during the POR, and that CST had no
entries of subject merchandise other
than those already being reviewed as
part of the new shipper review. The
customs data showed no entries of
subject merchandise by CSN during the
POR, and no additional entries by CST
that should be reviewed. We invited
interested parties to comment on our
intent to rescind the administrative
review; no comments were submitted.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(3), we are rescinding this
review for CSN based on our
determination that this company did not
have entries of subject merchandise
during the POR. Pursuant to 19 CFR
315.214(j), we are rescinding this review
for CST because any entries of subject
merchandise during the POR are already
being reviewed by the Department as
part of a new shipper review. This
review was requested for only these two
companies.
We are issuing this notice in
accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the
Act and19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
the Department shall make a
preliminary determination in an
administrative review of an
antidumping duty order within 245

however, that the Department may
extend that 245–day period to up to 365
days if it determines it is not practicable
to complete the review within the
foregoing time period.
The preliminary results of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on stainless

scheduled to be completed on December
1, 2005. However, the Department finds
that it is not practicable to complete the
preliminary results in this
administrative review within this time
limit because additional time is needed
to fully analyze the complex issues
raised in the questionnaire responses
and supplemental questionnaire
responses submitted by the respondent.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 1, 2005, the Department published a notice of opportunity
to request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on
certain hot-rolled carbon steel flat products from Brazil for the
period of review (POR) of March 1, 2004, through February 28, 2005. See
Notice of Opportunity to Request Administrative Review of Antidumping
Duty Order, Finding or Suspended Investigation, 70 FR 9918 (March 1,
2005). On March 31, 2005, United States Steel Corporation (USSC) and
Nucor Corporation (Nucor), domestic producers of the subject
merchandise, made timely requests that the Department conduct an
administrative review of CSN and CST. On April 22, 2005, in accordance
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 as amended (the Act), the
Department published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of
this antidumping duty administrative review. See Notice of Initiation
of Antidumping Duty and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 70
FR 20862 (April 22, 2005). On April 28, 2005, the Department issued its
antidumping duty questionnaire to CSN and CST. Both CSN and CST
requested rescission of this administrative review, CSN certifying that
there were no shipments or entries of subject merchandise during the
POR, and CST certifying that the only shipments or entries it had
during the POR were being reviewed by the Department as part of a new
shipper review. On October 7, 2005, after conducting an internal
customs data query to confirm these certifications, the Department
published in the Federal Register its notice of intent to rescind this
administrative review, and invited comments from interested parties.
See Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products from Brazil: Notice
of Intent to Rescind Administrative Review, 70 FR 58680 (October 7,
2005) (Notice of Intent to Rescind). The Department did not receive
comments from any interested party.
Scope of the Order
For purposes of this order, the products covered are certain hot-
rolled flat-rolled carbon-quality steel products of a rectangular
shape, of a width of 0.5 inch or greater, neither clad, plated, nor

plastics or other non-metallic substances, in coils (whether or not in
successively superimposed layers) regardless of thickness, and in
straight lengths, of a thickness less than 4.75 mm and of a width
measuring at least 10 times the thickness. Universal mill plate (i.e.,
flat-rolled products rolled on four faces or in a closed box pass, of a
width exceeding 150 mm, but not exceeding 1250 mm and of a thickness of
not less than 4 mm, not in coils and without patterns in relief) of a
thickness not less than 4.0 mm is not included within the scope of this
order.
Specifically included in this scope are vacuum degassed, fully
stabilized (commonly referred to as interstitial-free (IF)) steels,
high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels, and the substrate for motor
lamination steels. IF steels are recognized as low carbon steels with
micro-alloying levels of elements such as titanium and/or niobium added
to stabilize carbon and nitrogen elements. HSLA steels are recognized
as steels with micro-alloying levels of elements such as chromium,
copper, niobium, titanium, vanadium, and molybdenum. The substrate for
motor lamination steels contains micro-alloying levels of elements such
as silicon and aluminum.
Steel products to be included in the scope of this order,
regardless of Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
definitions, are products in which: (1) iron predominates, by weight,

Rescission of Administrative Review
On October 7, 2005, the Department published in the Federal
Register its intent to rescind the administrative review. As noted
above, CSN certified that it did not have any shipments or entries of
subject merchandise during the POR and CST certified that the only
shipments or entries of subject merchandise it had during the POR were
being reviewed by the Department as part of a new shipper review of CST
for the period March 1, 2004, through August 31, 2004. See Notice of
Intent to Rescind. The Department conducted an internal customs data
query to confirm that CSN had no entries of subject merchandise into
the United States during the POR, and that CST had no entries of
subject merchandise other than those already being reviewed as part of
the new shipper review. The customs data showed no entries of subject
merchandise by CSN during the POR, and no additional entries by CST
that should be reviewed. We invited interested parties to comment on
our intent to rescind the administrative review; no comments were
submitted.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), we are
rescinding this review for CSN based on our determination that this
company did not have entries of subject merchandise during the POR.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 315.214(j), we are rescinding this review for CST
because any entries of subject merchandise during the POR are already
being reviewed by the Department as part of a new shipper review. This
review was requested for only these two companies.
We are issuing this notice in accordance with section 751(a)(1) of
the Act and19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: November 8, 2005.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
