DATES: Effective Date: May 22, 2014. AGENCY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:36 May 21, 2014 Jkt 232001 On February 25, 2014, the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) published in the Federal Register the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on pure magnesium from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) covering the period May 1, 2012 through April 30, 2013.1 This review covers one PRC company, Tianjin Magnesium International, Co., Ltd. (‘‘TMI’’) and Tianjin Magnesium Metal Co., Ltd. (‘‘TMM’’) (collectively ‘‘TMI/TMM’’).2 The Department gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the Preliminary Results, but we received no comments. Hence, these final results are unchanged from the Preliminary Results and we continue to find that TMI/TMM did not have reviewable entries during the period of review (‘‘POR’’).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: Background On February 25, 2014, the Department published the Preliminary Results of the instant review.3 TMI and TMM each submitted timely-filed certifications indicating that it had no shipments of subject merchandise to the United States during the POR.4 In addition, in response to the Department’s query, 1 See Pure Magnesium From the People’s Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2012– 2013, 79 FR 10473 (February 25, 2014) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’). 2 The Department initiated the instant review on both TMM and TMI. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 78 FR 38924 (June 28, 2013) (‘‘Initiation Notice’’). In the interim, for the prior 2011–2012 review of the order, the Department determined TMM and TMI to be collapsed and treated as a single entity for purposes of the proceeding. See Pure Magnesium From the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2011– 2012, 79 FR 94 (January 2, 2014) and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comment 5. As this collapsing determination remains unchallenged in this review, the instant review covers the single TMM/TMI entity. 3 See Preliminary Results. 4 See letter from TMM, ‘‘Pure Magnesium from the People’s Republic of China; A–570–832; Certification of No Sales by Tianjin Magnesium Metal, Co., Ltd.,’’ dated August 26, 2013, at 1; see also letter from TMI, ‘‘Pure Magnesium from the People’s Republic of China; A–570–832; Certification of No Sales by Tianjin Magnesium International, Co., Ltd.,’’ dated August 27, 2013, at 1. PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) did not provide any evidence that contradicted TMI or TMM’s claim of no shipments.5 The Department received no comments from interested parties concerning the results of the CBP query. Therefore, based on TMI and TMM’s certification and our analysis of CBP information, we preliminarily determined that the single TMI/TMM entity did not have any reviewable entries during the POR.6 We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results.7 We received no comments from interested parties. The Department conducted this review in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). Scope of the Order Merchandise covered by the order is pure magnesium regardless of chemistry, form or size, unless expressly excluded from the scope of the order. Pure magnesium is a metal or alloy containing by weight primarily the element magnesium and produced by decomposing raw materials into magnesium metal. Pure primary magnesium is used primarily as a chemical in the aluminum alloying, desulfurization, and chemical reduction industries. In addition, pure magnesium is used as an input in producing magnesium alloy. Pure magnesium encompasses products (including, but not limited to, butt ends, stubs, crowns and crystals) with the following primary magnesium contents: (1) Products that contain at least 99.95% primary magnesium, by weight (generally referred to as ‘‘ultra pure’’ magnesium); (2) Products that contain less than 99.95% but not less than 99.8% primary magnesium, by weight (generally referred to as ‘‘pure’’ magnesium); and (3) Products that contain 50% or greater, but less than 99.8% primary magnesium, by weight, and that do not conform to ASTM specifications for alloy magnesium (generally referred to as ‘‘off–specification pure’’ magnesium). ‘‘Off–specification pure’’ magnesium is pure primary magnesium containing magnesium scrap, secondary magnesium, oxidized magnesium or impurities (whether or not intentionally added) that cause the primary magnesium content to fall below 99.8% by weight. It generally does not contain, individually or in combination, 1.5% or more, by weight, of the following alloying elements: aluminum, 5 Preliminary Results, 79 FR 10474. 6 Id. 7 Id.
