Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 89 / Thursday, May 8, 2014 / Notices
Meihua Group requested to extend the
application of the provisional measures
prescribed under section 733(d) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2), from a
four-month period to not more than sixmonths. Suspension of liquidation will
be extended accordingly.
Suspension of Liquidation
Section 733(e)(2) of the Act provides
that, given an affirmative determination
of critical circumstances, any
suspension of liquidation shall apply to
unliquidated entries of merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the later of
(a) the date which is 90 days before the
date on which the suspension of
liquidation was first ordered, or (b) the
date on which notice of initiation of the
investigation was published. As
described above, we preliminarily find
that critical circumstances exist for
imports produced or exported by the
Meihua Group, the separate rate
companies, and the PRC-wide entity.
For the Meihua Group, the separate rate
companies, and the PRC-wide entity, in
accordance with section 733(e)(2)(A) of
the Act, the suspension of liquidation
shall apply to unliquidated entries of
merchandise entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date which is 90 days before
the publication of this notice.
We will instruct CBP to require a cash
deposit for all suspended entries at an
ad valorem rate equal to the weightedaverage dumping margins, as indicated
in the chart above.14 These suspension
of liquidation instructions will remain
in effect until further notice.

Verification
As provided in section 782(i)(1) of the
Act, we intend to verify the information
from the Meihua Group in making our
final determination.
International Trade Commission (ITC)
Notification
In accordance with section 733(f) of
the Act, we will notify the ITC of our
preliminary affirmative determination of
sales at LTFV. Section 735(b)(2) of the
Act requires the ITC to make its final
determination as to whether the
domestic industry in the United States
is materially injured, or threatened with
material injury, by reason of imports of
MSG, or sales (or the likelihood of sales)
for importation, of the merchandise
under consideration within 45 days of
our final determination.

Appendix I
Scope of the Investigation
The scope of this investigation covers
monosodium glutamate (MSG), whether or
not blended or in solution with other
products. Specifically, MSG that has been
blended or is in solution with other
product(s) is included in this scope when the
resulting mix contains 15% or more of MSG
by dry weight. Products with which MSG
may be blended include, but are not limited
to, salts, sugars, starches, maltodextrins, and
various seasonings. Further, MSG is included
in this investigation regardless of physical
form (including, but not limited to,
substrates, solutions, dry powders of any
particle size, or unfinished forms such as
MSG slurry), end-use application, or
packaging.
MSG has a molecular formula of
C5H8NO4Na, a Chemical Abstract Service
(CAS) registry number of 6106–04–3, and a
Unique Ingredient Identifier (UNII) number
of W81N5U6R6U.
Merchandise covered by the scope of this
investigation is currently classified in the

Results of the 2006–2007 administrative
review of the antidumping order issued

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Chapter
19 of the North American Free Trade
Agreement (‘‘Agreement’’) establishes a
mechanism to replace domestic judicial
review of final determinations in
antidumping and countervailing duty
cases involving imports from a NAFTA
country with review by independent
binational panels. When a Request for
Panel Review is filed, a panel is
established to act in place of national
courts to review expeditiously the final
determination to determine whether it
conforms with the antidumping or
countervailing duty law of the country
that made the determination.
Under Article 1904 of the Agreement,
which came into force on January 1,
1994, the Government of the United
States, the Government of Canada and
the Government of Mexico established
Rules of Procedure for Article 1904
Binational Panel Reviews (‘‘Rules’’).
These Rules were published in the
Federal Register on February 23, 1994
(59 FR 8686). The panel review in this
matter has been conducted in
accordance with these Rules.

Jkt 232001
L.P. and Sivaco Ontario, a division of
Sivaco Wire Group 2004 L.P. (‘‘Ivaco’’),
filed a Request for Panel Review of the
Final Results of the 2006–2007
administrative review of the
antidumping order issued by the U.S.
Department of Commerce’s International
Trade Administration (ITA), with
respect to Carbon and Certain Alloy
Steel Wire Rod from Canada.
In its Complaint, filed on February 1,
2009, Ivaco alleged that the ITA had
committed two errors: (1) The ITA’s
decision that Ivaco had made sales to
the United States and the home market
at a single level of trade was
unsupported by substantial evidence
and otherwise not in accordance with
law and (2) the ITA’s decision to
calculate Ivaco’s overall weighted
average dumping margin by setting
negative individual dumping margins to
zero is unsupported by substantial
evidence and otherwise not in
accordance with law.
For the reasons set forth in the panel’s
written decision, and on the basis of the
administrative record, the applicable
law, the written submissions of the ITA
and Ivaco, and the panel hearing held in
Washington, DC on September 6, 2012,
the panel upheld in its decision the
Final Results of the administrative
review. Copies of the panel’s decision
are available from the U.S. Section of
the NAFTA Secretariat.
