SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On January 28, 2003, the Department published the AD orders on ferrovanadium from the PRC and South Africa.1 On November 1, 2013, the Department published the notice of initiation of the second sunset reviews of these AD orders, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act.2 On November 15, 2013, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1), the Department received timely and complete notices of intent to participate in the sunset reviews of both orders from Vanadium Producers and Reclaimers Association (‘‘VPRA’’) and VPRA members Gulf Chemical & Metallurgical Corporation (‘‘Gulf’’), Gulf’s wholly-owned subsidiary Bear Metallurgical Company (‘‘Bear’’), AMG Vanadium, Inc.

On December 2, 2013, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3), Domestic Producers filed a timely and adequate substantive response for both orders. The Department did not receive substantive responses from any respondent interested party.

The merchandise is commercially and scientifically identified as vanadium. It specifically excludes vanadium additives other than ferrovanadium, such as nitride vanadium, vanadiumaluminum master alloys, vanadium chemicals, vanadium oxides, vanadium waste and scrap, and vanadium-bearing raw materials such as slag, boiler residues and fly ash. Merchandise under the following Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (‘‘HTSUS’’) item numbers 2850.00.2000, 8112.40.3000, and 8112.40.6000 are specifically excluded. Ferrovanadium is classified under HTSUS item number 7202.92.00. Although the HTSUS item number is provided for convenience and Customs purposes, the Department’s written description of the scope of these orders remains dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received A complete discussion of all issues raised in these sunset reviews is provided in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum, which is hereby adopted by this notice.3 The issues discussed in the I&D Memorandum include the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping and the magnitude of the dumping margins likely to prevail if the orders are revoked. The I&D Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance’s Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (‘‘IA ACCESS’’).

of violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 
1701, et seq. (2006 & Supp. IV 2010)) (``IEEPA''). Specifically, 
Stashynski conspired and agreed, together with others known and 
unknown, to willfully export from the United States to Belarus export-
controlled items, including but not limited to L-3 x 200xp Handheld 
Thermal Imaging Cameras, without first obtaining from the United States 
Department of Commerce a license or written authorization. Stashynski 
was sentenced to six months in prison followed by three years of 
supervised release, a $3,000 criminal fine and an assessment of 
$100.00. Stashynski was released from prison on November 6, 2013.
    Section 766.25 of the Export Administration Regulations (``EAR'' or
