SUMMARY: On September 9, 2005, the Department of Commerce published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on silicomanganese from Brazil. The review covers exports of this merchandise to the United States by the ˆ collapsed parties, Rio Doce Manganes S.A. (RDM), Companhia Paulista de Ferro–Ligas (CPFL), and Urucum Mineracao S.A. (Urucum) (collectively ¸˜ RDM/CPFL), for the period December 1, 2003, through November 30, 2004. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the preliminary results. Based on our analysis of the comments received, we have made a change in the margin calculation for the final results of this review. The final weighted– average margin is listed below in the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this notice. EFFECTIVE DATE: January 17, 2006. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Yang Jin Chun at (202) 482–5760 or Dmitry Vladimirov at (202) 482–0665, AD/CVD Operations, Office 5, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Background On September 9, 2005, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of this review and invited parties to comment. See Silicomanganese From Brazil: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 53628 (Preliminary Results). On October 10, 2005, RDM/ CPFL, the respondent, filed a case brief. Eramet Marietta, the petitioner, did not file case or rebuttal briefs. Scope of the Order The merchandise covered by this order is silicomanganese. Silicomanganese, which is sometimes called ferrosilicon manganese, is a ferroalloy composed principally of manganese, silicon and iron, and normally contains much smaller proportions of minor elements, such as carbon, phosphorus, and sulfur. Silicomanganese generally contains by weight not less than 4 percent iron, more than 30 percent manganese, more than 8 percent silicon, and not more than 3 percent phosphorous. All compositions, forms, and sizes of silicomanganese are included within the scope of the order, including silicomanganese slag, fines, and briquettes. Silicomanganese is used primarily in steel production as a source of both silicon and manganese. Silicomanganese is currently classifiable under subheading 7202.30.0000 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Some silicomanganese may also currently be classifiable under HTSUS subheading 7202.99.5040. This order covers all silicomanganese, regardless of its tariff classification. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the order remains dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in RDM/CPFL’s case brief in the context of this administrative review are addressed in the January 9, 2006, Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of the Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Silicomanganese from Brazil December 1, 2003, through November 30, 2004 (the Decision Memorandum), which is hereby adopted by this notice. Attached to this notice as an appendix is a list of the issues that RDM/CPFL has raised and to which we have responded in the Decision Memorandum. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in this review and the E:\FR\FM\17JAN1.SGM 17JAN1
