DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(3),
if no domestic interested party files a
notice of intent to participate, the
Department shall issue a final
determination revoking the order within
90 days of the initiation of the review.
Because no domestic interested party
filed a timely notice of intent to
participate in the sunset reviews, the
Department finds that no domestic
interested party is participating in the
sunset reviews. Therefore, we are
revoking the antidumping duty orders
on ball bearings and parts thereof from
France, Germany, and Italy. The
effective date of revocation is September
15, 2011, the fifth anniversary of the
continuation of the antidumping duty
orders. See Tapered Roller Bearings and
Parts Thereof from the People’s
Republic of China and Ball Bearings
and Parts Thereof from France,
Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United
Kingdom: Continuation of Antidumping
Duty Orders, 71 FR 54469 (September
15, 2006).
Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the
Department intends to issue instructions
to U.S. Customs and Border Protection
to terminate the suspension of
liquidation of entries of the
merchandise subject to the orders which
were entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
September 15, 2011. Entries of subject
merchandise prior to September, 15,
2011, will continue to be subject to the
suspension of liquidation and
requirements for deposits of estimated
antidumping duties. The Department
will conduct administrative reviews of
the orders with respect to subject
merchandise entered prior to the
effective date of revocation in response
to appropriately filed requests for
review.
These final results of the five-year
(sunset) reviews and notice are
published in accordance with sections
751(c) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Assessment Instructions
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. For the companies

estimated antidumping duties required

assessment of double antidumping
duties.

to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the return or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 1, 2011, the Department
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on magnesium
metal from the PRC for the period April
1, 2010 through March 31, 2011.3 On
May 2, 2011, U.S. Magnesium LLC
(‘‘U.S. Magnesium’’), a domestic
producer and Petitioner in the
underlying investigation of this case,
made a timely request that the
Department conduct an administrative
review of TMI.4 On May 27, 2011, in
accordance with section 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’), the Department published in the
Federal Register a notice of initiation of
this antidumping duty administrative
review.5 On June 14, 2011, TMI
submitted a letter to the Department
certifying that it did not export
magnesium metal for sale in the United
States during the POR and that it did
not make entries of such merchandise
into the United States during the POR.6
On June 20, 2011, the Department
placed on the record information
obtained in response to the
Department’s query to CBP concerning
imports into the United States of subject
merchandise during the POR.7 This data
indicates that there were no entries of
subject merchandise during the POR
that had been exported by TMI. In
addition, on June 30, 2011, we notified
CBP that we were in receipt of a noshipment certification from TMI and
requested CBP to report any contrary
information within 10 days.8 CBP did
not report any contrary information.

Scope of the Order
The product covered by this
antidumping duty order is magnesium
metal from the PRC, which includes
primary and secondary alloy
magnesium metal, regardless of
chemistry, raw material source, form,
shape, or size. Magnesium is a metal or
alloy containing by weight primarily the
element magnesium. Primary
magnesium is produced by
decomposing raw materials into
magnesium metal. Secondary
magnesium is produced by recycling
magnesium-based scrap into magnesium
metal. The magnesium covered by this
order includes blends of primary and
secondary magnesium.
The subject merchandise includes the
following alloy magnesium metal
products made from primary and/or
secondary magnesium including,
without limitation, magnesium cast into
ingots, slabs, rounds, billets, and other
shapes; magnesium ground, chipped,
crushed, or machined into rasping,
granules, turnings, chips, powder,
briquettes, and other shapes; and
products that contain 50 percent or
greater, but less than 99.8 percent,
magnesium, by weight, and that have
been entered into the United States as
conforming to an ‘‘ASTM Specification
for Magnesium Alloy’’ 9 and are thus
outside the scope of the existing
antidumping orders on magnesium from
the PRC (generally referred to as ‘‘alloy’’
magnesium).
The scope of this order excludes: (1)
All forms of pure magnesium, including
chemical combinations of magnesium
and other material(s) in which the pure
magnesium content is 50 percent or
greater, but less than 99.8 percent, by
weight, that do not conform to an
‘‘ASTM Specification for Magnesium
Alloy’’ 10; (2) magnesium that is in
liquid or molten form; and (3) mixtures
containing 90 percent or less
magnesium in granular or powder form
by weight and one or more of certain
non-magnesium granular materials to
9 The meaning of this term is the same as that
used by the American Society for Testing and
Materials in its Annual Book for ASTM Standards:
Volume 01.02 Aluminum and Magnesium Alloys.
10 The material is already covered by existing
antidumping orders. See Notice of Antidumping
Duty Orders: Pure Magnesium from the People’s
Republic of China, the Russian Federation and
Ukraine; Notice of Amended Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Antidumping Duty
Investigation of Pure Magnesium from the Russian
Federation, 60 FR 25691 (May 12, 1995); and
Antidumping Duty Order: Pure Magnesium in
Granular Form from the People’s Republic of China,
