SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background [Docket T–3–2011] VerDate Mar<15>2010 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE On September 13, 2011, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the final results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on magnesium metal from the Russian Federation. See Magnesium Metal from the Russian Federation: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR 56396 (September 13, 2011) (Final Results). We received a timely allegation of ministerial errors pursuant to 19 CFR 351.224(c) from US Magnesium LLC, the petitioner, alleging that we relied on unadjusted cost data to calculate constructed value for the respondent, PSC VSMPO–AVISMA Corporation (AVISMA), and that we inadvertently set constructed value selling expenses to zero in the calculations. We agree with the petitioner that the alleged errors are ministerial errors. Therefore, we are hereby amending the Final Results with respect to AVISMA to correct ministerial errors in our calculation of AVISMA’s weighted-average margin in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(e).

The Department clarified its ‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on May 6, 2003. This clarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by AVISMA for which AVISMA did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries of merchandise produced by AVISMA at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this clarification, see Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). The Department intends to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication of these amended final results of review.

DATES: Effective Date: October 4, 2011. SUMMARY: On June 1, 2011, the Department of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) initiated the third sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on certain helical spring lock washers (‘‘lock washers’’) from Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’). The Department has conducted expedited sunset reviews of these orders. As a result of these reviews, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty orders would likely lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping at the margins identified in the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section of this notice. AGENCY: Background On June 1, 2011, the Department published the notice of initiation of the third sunset review of the antidumping duty orders on lock washers from Taiwan and the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). See Initiation of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 76 FR 31588 (June 1, 2011). On June 13, 2011, the Department received a notice of intent to participate in both of these reviews from Shakeproof Assembly Components Division of Illinois Tool Works Inc. (‘‘Shakeproof’’), within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). Shakeproof, Petitioner in these proceedings, claimed interested party status for both of these reviews under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as a producer of the domestic like product. On June 30, 2011, the Department received a complete substantive response from Petitioner for both reviews within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). We received no substantive responses from any respondent interested parties. As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), the Department conducted expedited sunset reviews of these antidumping duty orders. Scope of the Orders The products covered by the orders are lock washers of carbon steel, of carbon alloy steel, or of stainless steel, heat-treated or non-heat-treated, plated or non-plated, with ends that are offline. Lock washers are designed to: (1) Function as a spring to compensate for developed looseness between the component parts of a fastened assembly; (2) distribute the load over a larger area for screws or bolts; and (3) provide a hardened bearing surface. The scope does not include internal or external tooth washers, nor does it include spring lock washers made of other metals, such as copper. Lock washers subject to the orders are currently classifiable under subheadings 7318.21.0000 and 7318.21.0030 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive.1 Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in these reviews are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum (‘‘Decision Memorandum’’) from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Ronald K. Lorentzen, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, dated concurrently with this notice, which is hereby adopted by this notice. The issues discussed in the Decision Memorandum include the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail if the orders were revoked. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in these reviews and the corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum, which is on file in the Central Records Unit in room 7046 of the main Department building. In addition, a complete version of the Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Internet at https:// www.ia.ita.doc.gov/frn. The paper copy and electronic version of the Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Final Results of Review Pursuant to sections 752(c)(1) and (3) of the Act, we determine that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on lock washers from Taiwan and the PRC would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the following weighted-average percentage margins: Margin (percent) Manufacturers/producers/exporters pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Lock Washers From Taiwan Spring Lake Enterprises Co., Ltd ........................................................................................................................................................

Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 13, 2011, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the final results of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on magnesium metal from the Russian Federation. 
See Magnesium Metal from the Russian Federation: Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR 56396 (September 13, 
2011) (Final Results).
    We received a timely allegation of ministerial errors pursuant to 
19 CFR 351.224(c) from US Magnesium LLC, the petitioner, alleging that 
we relied on unadjusted cost data to calculate constructed value for 
the respondent, PSC VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation (AVISMA), and that we 
inadvertently set constructed value selling expenses to zero in the 
calculations. We agree with the petitioner that the alleged errors are 
ministerial errors. Therefore, we are hereby amending the Final Results 
with respect to AVISMA to correct ministerial errors in our calculation 
of AVISMA's weighted-average margin in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.224(e).
    For details regarding the ministerial errors, see the memorandum 
from Hermes Pinilla to the File entitled ``Administrative Review of the 
Antidumping Duty Order on Magnesium Metal from the Russian Federation--
Amended Final Results Analysis Memorandum for PSC VSMPO-AVISMA 
Corporation covering the period April 1, 2009, through March 31, 
2010,'' concurrently with this notice.

Amended Final Results of the Review

    As a result of our correction of ministerial errors, we determine 
that, for the period April 1, 2009, through March 31, 2010, a weighted-
average dumping margin of 22.38 percent exists for AVISMA.

Assessment Rates

    The Department shall determine and U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) shall assess antidumping duties on all appropriate 
entries. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we have calculated an 
importer-specific assessment rate for AVISMA reflecting these amended 
final results of review.
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003. This clarification will apply to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by AVISMA for which AVISMA did not 
know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In such 
instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries of 
merchandise produced by AVISMA at the all-others rate if there is no 
rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. For 
a full discussion of this clarification, see Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 
FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
    The Department intends to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after 
the publication of these amended final results of review.

Cash-Deposit Requirements

    Because we revoked the order effective April 15, 2010, no cash 
deposit for estimated antidumping duties on future entries of subject 
merchandise is required.

Notifications

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 
the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the 
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely notification of
