SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
On October 28, 2010, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) initiated
the administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain new
pneumatic off-the-road tires (‘‘off-theroad tires’’) from the People’s Republic
of China (‘‘PRC’’) for the period,
September 1, 2009, through August 31,
2010. See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, 75 FR 66349 (October 28,
2010). On October 7, 2011, the
Department published its preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the antidumping order on off-the-road
tires from the PRC. See Certain New
Pneumatic Off-the-Road Tires from the
People’s Republic of China: Preliminary
Results of the 2009—2010 Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review and Intent
to Rescind, in Part, 76 FR 62356
(October 7, 2011). On February 8, 2012,
the Department extended the time limit
for the final results by 14 days to
February 18, 2012. See Certain New
Pneumatic Off-the-Road Tires from the
People’s Republic of China: Notice of
Extension of Time Limit for the Final
Results of the 2009–2010 Administrative
Review of the Antidumping Duty Order,
77 FR 6536 (February 8, 2012).
Extension of Time Limit for Final
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue the
final results in an administrative review
within 120 days after the date on which
the preliminary results are published.
However, if it is not practicable to
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:37 Feb 21, 2012
Jkt 226001
complete the review within this time
period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act
allows the Department to extend the
time period to a maximum of 180 days.
We determine that it is not practicable
to complete the final results of this
review within the current deadline
because the Department continues to
require additional time to analyze issues
raised in recent surrogate value
submissions, case briefs, and rebuttals.
Therefore, in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are extending
the time limit for completion of the final
results of this administrative review by
14 additional days, until March 3, 2012.
However, because March 3, 2012, falls
on a weekend, the final results are now
due no later than March 5, 2012. See
Notice of Clarification: Application of
‘‘Next Business Day’’ Rule for
Administrative Determination Deadlines
Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As
Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).

assessed.

Silicon Metal From the People’s
Republic of China: Final Results of the
Expedited Third Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On November 1, 2011, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated the third sunset
review of the antidumping duty order
on silicon metal from the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’). Based on the
notice of intent to participate and
adequate substantive response filed by
the domestic interested party, and the
lack of response from any respondent
interested party, the Department
conducted an expedited (120-day)
sunset review of the antidumping duty
order on silicon metal from the PRC,
pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2).
As a result of this sunset review, the
Department finds that revocation of the
antidumping duty order would be likely
to lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping, at the levels indicated in the
‘‘Final Results of Sunset Review’’
section of this notice, infra.
DATES: Effective Date: February 22,
2012.

producer of silicon metal (‘‘Globe’’). On
December 1, 2011, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.218(d)(3), Globe filed a timely and
adequate substantive response. The
Department did not receive substantive
responses from any respondent
interested party. 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 an expedited
(120-day) sunset review of the
antidumping duty order on silicon
metal from the PRC.
Scope of the Order
Imports covered by this review are
shipments of silicon metal containing at
least 96.00 but less than 99.99 percent
of silicon by weight. Also covered by
this review is silicon metal from the
PRC containing between 89.00 and
96.00 percent silicon by weight but
which contains a higher aluminum
content than the silicon metal
containing at least 96.00 percent but less
than 99.99 percent silicon by weight.
Silicon metal is currently provided for
under subheadings 2804.69.10 and
2804.69.50 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule (‘‘HTS’’) as a chemical
product, but is commonly referred to as
a metal. Semiconductor-grade silicon
(silicon metal containing by weight not
less than 99.99 percent of silicon and
provided for in subheading 2804.61.00
of the HTS) is not subject to this review.
Although the HTS subheadings are
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
merchandise is dispositive.
Analysis of Comments Received
A complete discussion of all issues
raised in this sunset review is provided
in the accompanying Issues and
Decision Memorandum, which is hereby
adopted by this notice. See ‘‘Issues and
Decision Memorandum for the
Expedited Third Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order on Silicon
Metal from the People’s Republic of
China,’’ from Christian Marsh, Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Operations, to
Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for
Import Administration, dated
concurrently with this notice (‘‘I&D
Memorandum’’). The issues discussed
in the I&D Memorandum include the
likelihood of continuation or recurrence
of dumping and the magnitude of the
margins likely to prevail if the order is
revoked. The I&D Memorandum is a
public document and is on file
electronically via Import
Administration’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (‘‘IA
ACCESS’’). Access to IA ACCESS is
