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. (‘‘AMGV’’), and Evraz
Stratcor, Inc. (‘‘Stratcor’’) (collectively
‘‘Domestic Producers’’). 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. 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
(120-day) sunset reviews of these AD
orders.

additive in the manufacture of steel. The

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

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’’). Access to IA ACCESS is
available in the Central Records Unit,
Room 7046 of the main Department of
