ACTION:
The Angeles National Forest
will begin charging a fee for the rental
of the Big Pines Clubhouse Historic Site.
The fee will be $65.00 per hour not to
exceed $510.00 per day, with a
discounted rate of $45.00 per hour for
interpretive programs. Rentals of this
type are unusual on Federal lands but
public involvement has indicated that
visitors appreciate and enjoy the
availability of this kind of historic rental
facility. Funds from the rental will be
used for the continued operation and
maintenance of the Big Pines Clubhouse
Historic Site.
DATES: The Bit Pines Clubhouse Historic
Site will become available for rent

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Federal Recreation Lands Enhancement
Act (Title VII, Pub. L. 108–447) directs
the Secretary of Agriculture to publish
a six month advance notice in the
Federal Register whenever new
recreation fee areas are established. The
intent of this notice is to inform publics
of a new fee site.
The Angeles National Forest currently
has no other rental facility similar to the
Big Pines Clubhouse Historic Site, this
is a unique opportunity. A business
analysis of the Big Pines Clubhouse
Historic Site has shown that people
desire having this sort of recreation
experience on the Angeles National
Forest. A market analysis indicates that
the fee of $65.00 per hour not to exceed
$510.00 per day, with a discounted rate
of $45.00 per hour for interpretive
programs is both reasonable and
acceptable for this sort of unique
recreation experience.

Final Results of Five-year Sunset
Review of Suspended Antidumping
Duty Investigation on Ammonium
Nitrate from the Russian Federation
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On April 1, 2005, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the suspended antidumping duty
investigation on ammonium nitrate from
the Russian Federation (‘‘Russia’’)
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’).
See Notice of Initiation of Five-year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 70 FR 16800 (April
1, 2005) (‘‘Initiation Notice’’). On the
basis of notices of intent to participate
filed on behalf of domestic interested
parties and adequate substantive
comments filed on behalf of domestic
and respondent interested parties, the
Department conducted a full (240-day)
review. As a result of this review, the
Department finds that termination of the
suspended antidumping duty
investigation on ammonium nitrate from
Russia 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: March 6, 2006.

Scope of the Review
The products covered by the sunset
review of the suspended antidumping
duty investigation on ammonium nitrate
from Russia include solid, fertilizer
grade ammonium nitrate products,
whether prilled, granular or in other
solid form, with or without additives or
coating, and with a bulk density equal
to or greater than 53 pounds per cubic
foot. Specifically excluded from this
scope is solid ammonium nitrate with a
bulk density less than 53 pounds per
cubic foot (commonly referred to as
industrial or explosive grade
ammonium nitrate). The merchandise
subject to this review is classified in the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) at subheading

History of the Suspension Agreement
On August 12, 1999, the Department
initiated an antidumping duty
investigation under section 732 of the
Act on ammonium nitrate from Russia.
See Initiation of Antidumping Duty
Investigation: Solid Fertilizer Grade
Ammonium Nitrate From the Russian
Federation, 64 FR 45236 (August 19,
1999). On January 7, 2000, the
Department preliminarily determined
that ammonium nitrate from Russia is
being, or is likely to be, sold in the
United States at less than fair value. See
Notice of Preliminary Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Solid
Fertilizer Grade Ammonium Nitrate
From the Russian Federation, 65 FR
1139 (January 7, 2000). The Department
suspended the antidumping duty
investigation on ammonium nitrate from
Russia effective May 19, 2000. The basis
for this action was an agreement
between the Department and the
Ministry of Trade of the Russian
Federation (‘‘MOT’’) accounting for
substantially all imports of ammonium
nitrate from Russia, wherein the MOT
has agreed to restrict exports of
ammonium nitrate from all Russian
producers/exporters to the United States
and to ensure that such exports are sold
at or above the agreed reference price.
See Suspension of Antidumping Duty
Investigation: Solid Fertilizer Grade
Ammonium Nitrate From the Russian
Federation, 65 FR 37759 (June 16, 2000)
(‘‘Suspension Agreement’’). Thereafter,
pursuant to a request by the petitioner,
the Committee for Fair Ammonium
Nitrate Trade (‘‘COFANT’’), the
Department completed its investigation
and published in the Federal Register
its final determination of sales at less
that fair value. See Notice of Final
Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value; Solid Fertilizer Grade
Ammonium Nitrate From the Russian
Federation, 65 FR 42669 (July 11, 2000)
(‘‘Final Determination’’). In the Final
Determination, the Department
calculated weighted–average dumping
margins of 253.98 percent for
Nevinnomyssky Azot, a respondent
company in the investigation, and for
the Russia–wide entity. The Suspension
Agreement remains in effect for all
manufacturers, producers, and exporters
of ammonium nitrate from Russia.
