Potassium Permanganate from the
People’s Republic of China: Final
Results of Expedited Sunset Review of
Antidumping Duty Order
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
DATES: Effective Date: August 26, 2010.
SUMMARY: On May 3, 2010, the
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the antidumping duty order on
potassium permanganate from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’). On
the basis of a timely notice of intent to
participate and an adequate substantive
response filed on behalf of a domestic
interested party, as well as a lack of
response from respondent interested
parties, the Department conducted an
expedited sunset review. As a result of
the sunset review, the Department finds
that revocation of the antidumping duty
order would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping.
The dumping margins are identified in
the Final Results of Review section of
this notice.

Background
On May 3, 2010, the Department
published the notice of initiation of the
sunset review of the antidumping duty
order on potassium permanganate from
the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’). See Initiation of Five-Year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 75 FR 23240 (May 3,
2010). On May 6, 2010, the Department
received a notice of intent to participate
from a domestic producer, Carus

within the deadline specified in section
351.218(d)(1)(i) of the Department’s
regulations. The domestic interested
party claimed interested party status
under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as
Carus is a domestic manufacturer of
potassium permanganate in the United
States. On May 28, 2010, the
Department received a substantive
response from the domestic interested
party within the deadline specified in
section 351.218(d)(3)(i) of the
Department’s regulations. We did not
receive substantive responses from any
respondent interested parties to this
proceeding. As a result, pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and
section 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2) of the
Department’s regulations, the
Department determined to conduct an
expedited review of the order.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by the order are
shipments of potassium permanganate,
an inorganic chemical produced in freeflowing, technical, and pharmaceutical
grades. Potassium permanganate is
currently classifiable under item
2841.61.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule (HTS). The HTS item number
is provided for convenience and
customs purposes. The written
description remains dispositive.

process, a multi-step method for
determining the status of fish stocks in
the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a three-
step process including: (1) Data
Workshop, (2) Assessment Process
utilizing webinars and (3) Review
Workshop. The product of the Data
Workshop is a data report which
compiles and evaluates potential
datasets and recommends which
datasets are appropriate for assessment
analyses. The product of the Assessment
Process is a stock assessment report
which describes the fisheries, evaluates
the status of the stock, estimates
biological benchmarks, projects future
population conditions, and recommends
research and monitoring needs. The
assessment is independently peer
reviewed at the Review Workshop. The
product of the Review Workshop is a
Summary documenting Panel opinions
regarding the strengths and weaknesses
of the stock assessment and input data.
Participants for SEDAR Workshops are
appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South
Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery
Management Councils and NOAA
Fisheries Southeast Regional Office,
HMS Management Division, and

Participants include data collectors and
database managers; stock assessment
scientists, biologists, and researchers;
constituency representatives including
fishermen, environmentalists, and
NGO’s; International experts; and staff
of Councils, Commissions, and state and
Federal agencies.
SEDAR 21 Assessment Process I
Webinar Series
Using datasets recommended from the
Data Workshop, participants will
employ assessment models to evaluate
stock status, estimate population
benchmarks and management criteria,
and project future conditions.
Participants will recommend the most
appropriate methods and configurations
for determining stock status and
estimating population parameters.
