inch gauge (psig) to clean gas pipes. A
total of 15 natural gas blows were
completed intermittently over
approximately four hours through a
number of open pipe ends which were
located less than 20 feet off the ground.
Efforts were made to eliminate or
control potential ignition sources
outside the power generation building.
However, many ignition sources existed
inside the building: electrical power to
the building was on, welders were
actively working, and diesel-fueled
heaters were running.
Initial calculations by CSB
investigators reveal that approximately
400,000 standard cubic feet of natural
gas were released to the atmosphere
near the building in the final ten
minutes before the blast. Just over 2
million standard cubic feet of gas were
released in total over the course of the
morning. At approximately 11:15 a.m.,
the released natural gas found an
ignition source and exploded.
The meeting will be videotaped and
an official transcript will be included in
the investigative file. All staff
presentations are preliminary and are
intended solely to allow the Board to
consider the issues and factors involved
in this case in a public forum. No
factual analyses, conclusions, findings
or recommendations of the staff should
be considered final. Only after the Board
has considered and approved the urgent
recommendations will there be an
approved final record.

Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Docket 22–2009]
Foreign-Trade Zone 203; Application
for Subzone Authority; REC Silicon;
Invitation for Public Comment on
Preliminary Recommendation
The FTZ Board is inviting public
comment on its staff’s preliminary
recommendation pertaining to the
application by the Port of Moses Lake
Public Corporation to establish a
subzone at the REC Silicon facility in
Moses Lake, Washington (Docket 22–
2009). The staff’s preliminary
recommendation is for approval of the
application with a restriction
prohibiting admission of foreign status
silicon metal subject to an anti-dumping
duty (AD) or countervailing duty (CVD)
order. The bases for this finding are as
follows:
Analysis of the application record
indicates that full approval of the
request could negatively impact
domestic silicon metal production. This
finding is based primarily on the
potential impact to domestic silicon
metal prices compounded by multiple
applications potentially involving
avoidance of AD/CVD duties on silicon
metal used in export production.
Although REC Silicon’s current
domestic purchases account for only a
small portion of domestic silicon metal
production, the company has been
expanding its capacity and will need
increased amounts of silicon metal as
that production comes online. Thus,
access to silicon metal subject to AD/
CVD duties for its export production
(currently over 95% of production)
could encourage the company to source
silicon metal subject to AD/CVD orders
for its expanded production, instead of
increasing domestic sourcing or
sourcing imported silicon metal that is
not subject to AD/CVD orders.
A key consideration in this request is
the cumulative effect on domestic
silicon metal prices and on the integrity
of the domestic silicon metal industry’s
AD/CVD relief should there be multiple
applications to avoid AD/CVD duties on
silicon metal for export production. In
addition to the REC Silicon application,
a similar application is pending for Dow
Corning Corporation in Kentucky and
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
we have received indication that further
requests are being prepared for
additional facilities. In its application,
REC Silicon indicates that if it is granted
full approval, other U.S. polysilison
producers will likely apply for similar
benefits. Given the production capacity
of REC Silicon’s domestic facilities, as
well as those of the other U.S.
producers, the ripple effect on silicon
metal suppliers would be significant
and the resulting impact would likely be
a decline in the U.S. price of silicon
metal.
Currently, very little silicon metal
subject to AD/CVD orders is imported
into the United States. However, the
potential increase in supply to the U.S.
market from the use of silicon metal
subject to AD/CVD orders at this plant
and others in the industry, and the
resulting price effect, would likely be
significant.
In part due to the AD/CVD duties in
place, U.S. silicon metal prices have
increased. This has led to the recent
restarting of a shuttered silicon metal
production facility in New York. A
weakening of the U.S. price of silicon
metal could threaten the viability of this
facility as well as the continuation of
production at other domestic facilities.
Given the volume of silicon metal
involved in the current and anticipated
applications, even a limit on the amount
of silicon metal subject to AD/CVD
orders that could be used in the facility
for export production could have a
significant impact on the U.S. price of
silicon metal. The timing of that impact
would also be occurring as domestic
silicon metal production facilities are
recovering and restarting, likely due (at
least in part) to the relief provided
through the AD/CVD orders that are in
place. The FTZ regulations require that
evaluations of manufacturing authority
consider, ‘‘whether the approval is
consistent with trade policy and
programs, and whether its net economic
effect is positive’’ (15 CFR 400.31(a)). In
this case, given the potential impact on
the silicon metal industry and based on
the evidence currently on the record,
the staff is unable to find that the net
(national) economic effect of approving
the use of silicon metal subject to AD/
CVD orders for export production would
be positive.
While unrestricted approval could
have a negative impact, the issues raised
do not extend to silicon metal not
subject to AD/CVD orders. No
arguments or evidence have been
presented to the FTZ Board in
opposition to FTZ savings on silicon
metal not subject to AD/CVD orders.
Since REC Silicon indicated that they
do not currently anticipate using silicon
