FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Correction On January 2, 2014, the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) published the Final Results of the first administrative review of the antidumping duty order on aluminum extrusions from the People’s Republic of China.1 The published Federal Register notice contained a ministerial error in that it included an exporter’s name (i.e., ‘‘Zhongshan Gold Mountain Aluminum Factory Ltd.’’2) that was misspelled. The correct spelling of this exporter’s name is Zhongshan Gold Mountain Aluminium Factory Ltd. Pursuant to section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), the Department shall correct any ministerial errors within a reasonable time after the determinations are issued under this section. A ministerial error is defined as an error ‘‘in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical errors resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other type of unintentional error. . . .’’ This notice serves to correct the incorrect exporter company name listed in the Final Results. This correction is published in accordance with sections 751(h) and 777(i) of the Act. 1 See Aluminum Extrusions From the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Rescission, in Part, 2010/12, 79 FR 96 (January 2, 2014) (‘‘Final Results’’). 2 Id., 79 FR 100.

As a result of our analysis, the Department preliminarily finds that revocation of the AD order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the levels indicated in the ‘‘Preliminary Results of Review’’ section of this notice. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. DATES: Effective February 10, 2014.
