SUMMARY: We preliminarily determine that imports of electrolytic manganese dioxide from Australia are being, or are likely to be, sold in the United States at less than fair value, as provided in section 733(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Interested parties are invited to comment on this preliminary determination. We will make our final determination within 75 days after the date of this preliminary determination.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES AGENCY: Background On September 17, 2007, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published in the Federal Register the initiation of antidumping duty investigations of electrolytic manganese dioxide from Australia and VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:52 Mar 25, 2008 Jkt 214001 the People’s Republic of China. See Notice of Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigations: Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide from Australia and the People’s Republic of China, 72 FR 52850 (September 17, 2007) (Initiation Notice). The Department set aside a period for all interested parties to raise issues regarding product coverage. The Department encouraged all interested parties to submit such comments within 20 days from publication of the initiation notice, that is, by October 9, 2007. See Initiation Notice, 72 FR at 52851; see also Antidumping Duties; Countervailing Duties; Final Rule, 62 FR 27296, 27323 (May 19, 1997) (Final Rule). On October 24, 2007, the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) preliminarily determined that there is a reasonable indication that imports of electrolytic manganese dioxide from Australia are materially injuring the U.S. industry and the ITC notified the Department of its findings. See Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide from Australia and the People’s Republic of China, Investigation Nos. 731–TA–1124 1125 (Preliminary), 72 FR 60388–60389 (October 24, 2007) (ITC Preliminary Notice). On January 15, 2008, we postponed the deadline for the preliminary determinations under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act by 50 days to March 19, 2008. See Postponement of Preliminary Determinations of Antidumping Duty Investigations: Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide from Australia and the People’s Republic of China, 73 FR 2445 (January 15, 2008). Period of Investigation The period of investigation (POI) is July 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007. Scope of Investigation The merchandise covered by this investigation includes all manganese dioxide (MnO2) that has been manufactured in an electrolysis process, whether in powder, chip, or plate form (EMD). Excluded from the scope are natural manganese dioxide (NMD) and chemical manganese dioxide (CMD). The merchandise subject to this investigation is classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) at subheading 2820.10.00.00. While the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of this investigation is dispositive. Scope Comments In accordance with the preamble to our regulations, we set aside a period of PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 time for parties to raise issues regarding product coverage in the Initiation Notice and encouraged all parties to submit comments within 20 calendar days of publication of the Initiation Notice. See Final Rule, 62 FR at 27323. We did not receive comments from any interested parties in this investigation. Respondent Identification Section 777A(c)(1) of the Act directs the Department to calculate individual weighted–average dumping margins for each known exporter and producer of the subject merchandise. Section 777A(c)(2) of the Act also gives the Department discretion to examine a reasonable number of such exporters and producers when it is not practicable to examine all exporters and producers. In order to identify the universe of producers/exporters in Australia to investigate for purposes of this less– than-fair–value investigation on EMD, we analyzed information from various sources, including data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Using information obtained from the petition, an internet search, and CBP statistical information on U.S. imports of EMD during the POI, we identified one respondent, Delta Australia Pty Ltd (Delta). For a detailed analysis of our respondent–identification procedure, see Memorandum to Laurie Parkhill, ‘‘Antidumping Duty Investigation on Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide from Australia Respondent Identification,’’ dated October 25, 2007, on file in the Central Records Unit (CRU) in room 1117. Delta On October 31, 2007, we issued a questionnaire to Delta and requested that it respond by December 7, 2007. On November 27, 2007, we granted Delta an extension until December 28, 2007, to respond to all sections of the questionnaire. On December 28, 2007, we received Delta’s sections A and C responses. We granted Delta an extension until February 8, 2008, to respond to sections B and D of the questionnaire. On January 31, 2008, we received a letter from Delta explaining that, due to the closing of its plant facility in Australia, it did not have resources to provide adequate responses to the questionnaire or to continue active participation in this investigation. Thus, Delta did not submit any further questionnaire responses, including sections B and D due on February 8, 2008, or a response to the Department’s supplemental questionnaire (sections A and C) due on February 14, 2008.
