SUMMARY: On March 24, 2014, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) published the preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the antidumping duty order on lowenriched uranium (LEU) from France.1
The review covers one producer or
exporter of the subject merchandise,
Eurodif S.A., AREVA NC, and AREVA
NC, Inc. (collectively AREVA). The
Department determines that AREVA
made no shipments of subject
merchandise during the POR.

Memorandum.3
Period of Review
Determination of No Shipments
We determine that AREVA had no
shipments of merchandise subject to the
antidumping duty order on LEU from
France during the POR.
The period of review (POR) is
February 1, 2012, through January 31,
2013.
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
all low-enriched uranium. Lowenriched uranium is enriched uranium
hexafluoride (UF6) with a U235 product
assay of less than 20 percent that has
not been converted into another
chemical form, such as UO2, or
fabricated into nuclear fuel assemblies,
regardless of the means by which the
LEU is produced (including lowenriched uranium produced through the
down-blending of highly enriched
uranium).2
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised by the parties in the
case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in
the Issues and Decision Memorandum.
A list of the issues addressed in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum is
appended to this notice. The Issues and

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
There has been no change to the
Department’s preliminary decision that
AREVA had no shipments subject to the
antidumping duty order. We revised the
entry requirements and review process
for merchandise conditionally excluded
from the scope of the order, as discussed

Determination of Revised Entry
Requirements
To ensure proper enforcement of the
order, the Department now determines
that it is appropriate to suspend
liquidation for shipments of LEU from
France that previously entered without
the suspension of liquidation. Such
entries will be suspended, effective the
date of publication of these final results
of review, and cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties will be
required, at a rate of zero percent ad
valorem. Such entries will be examined
and liquidated in accordance with the
procedures described in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.4
Assessment Rates
Since the Department found that
AREVA had no shipments during the
POR, we did not calculate importerspecific assessment rates.
The Department clarified its
‘‘automatic assessment’’ regulation on
May 6, 2003. This clarification will
apply to entries of subject merchandise
during the POR produced by companies
included in the final results of review
for which these companies did not
know that the merchandise was
destined for the United States. In such
instances, we will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate
un-reviewed entries at the all-others rate
if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the
transaction.5
We intend to issue instructions to
CBP 15 days after publication of the
final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements
will be effective for all shipments of
LEU from France entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or
after the date of publication of the final
results of this administrative review, as
provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for
AREVA will remain unchanged from the
rate assigned to the company in the

Liquidation’’ section of the Issues and Decision

most recently completed review of that
company, except for entries for which
the importer claims to be excluded from
the order under the re-export provision

deposit rate of zero percent; (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated
companies not listed above, the cash
deposit rate will continue to be the
company-specific rate published for the
most recent period with a completed
segment of this proceeding; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the less-thanfair-value investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate
will be the rate established for the most
recent period with a completed segment
of this proceeding for the manufacturer
of the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 19.95
percent, the all-others rate established
in the investigation.6 Entries
accompanied by certifications from the
exporter, the importer, and the end user,
indicating that the LEU will be reexported within 18 months will be
subject to a cash deposit requirement of
zero percent ad valorem. These cash
deposit requirements, when imposed,
shall remain in effect until further
notice.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice is the only reminder to
parties subject to the administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business
proprietary information in this segment
of the proceeding. Timely written
notification of the return or destruction
of APO materials, or conversion to
judicial protective order, is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is
a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to the importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in the Secretary’s presumption

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) determines that grainoriented electrical steel (GOES) from the
Czech Republic is being, or is likely to
be, sold in the United States at less than
fair value (LTFV), as provided in section
735 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). In addition, we
determine that critical circumstances
exist with respect to imports of the
subject merchandise from the Czech
Republic. The period of investigation
(POI) is July 1, 2012, through June 30,
2013. The final dumping margins of
sales at LTFV are listed below in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 9, 2014, the Department
published the Preliminary
Determination of sales at LTFV of GOES
from the Czech Republic.1 The
following events occurred since the
Preliminary Determination was issued.
In May 2014, the Department verified
the sales data submitted by
ArcelorMittal Frydek-Mistek (AMFM)
and its U.S. affiliate, ArcelorMittal
International America LLC, in
accordance with section 782(i) of the
Act. We also issued a supplemental cost
of production (COP) questionnaire to
AMFM on May 9, 2014, and received
the response to this supplemental
questionnaire on June 3, 2014.
In June 2014, we verified the COP
information submitted by AMFM, and
we attempted to verify the sales
information submitted by Sujani
Enterprises, Ltd. (Sujani), in accordance
with section 782(i) of the Act.
We invited interested parties to
comment on the Preliminary
Determination. On July 28 and August
4, 2014, the domestic industry,2 AMFM,
and Sujani submitted case and rebuttal
briefs, respectively.
Scope of the Investigation
The scope of the investigation covers
GOES, which is a flat-rolled alloy steel
product containing by weight specific
levels of silicon, carbon, and aluminum.
For a complete description of the scope
of the investigation, see Appendix I of
this notice.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs by parties in this
investigation are addressed in the Issues

Verification
As provided in section 782(i) of the
Act, in May and June 2014, we verified
the sales and cost information submitted
by AMFM for use in our final
determination. We used standard
verification procedures, including an
examination of relevant accounting and
production records, and original source
documents provided by AMFM.3
In addition, as provided in section
782(i) of the Act, in June 2014, we also
attempted to verify the sales information
submitted by Sujani, using standard
verification procedures.4 However, as
noted in the Sujani Sales Verification
Report, Sujani was unable to
substantiate the data in its accounting
system using independent sources, and
it withheld information when requested
by the Department’s verifiers. As a
consequence, we find that Sujani’s
reported data is unverifiable, and so
incomplete that it cannot serve as a
reliable basis for reaching a
determination in this investigation.5

Changes Since the Preliminary Results
There has been no change to the Department's preliminary decision
that AREVA had no shipments subject to the antidumping duty order. We
revised the entry requirements and review process for merchandise
conditionally excluded from the scope of the order, as discussed in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum.\3\

Determination of No Shipments
We determine that AREVA had no shipments of merchandise subject to
the antidumping duty order on LEU from France during the POR.
Determination of Revised Entry Requirements
To ensure proper enforcement of the order, the Department now
determines that it is appropriate to suspend liquidation for shipments
of LEU from France that previously entered without the suspension of
liquidation. Such entries will be suspended, effective the date of
publication of these final results of review, and cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties will be required, at a rate of zero
percent ad valorem. Such entries will be examined and liquidated in
accordance with the procedures described in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum.\4\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assessment Rates
Since the Department found that AREVA had no shipments during the
POR, we did not calculate importer-specific assessment rates.
The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on
May 6, 2003. This clarification will apply to entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by companies included in the final
results of review for which these companies did not know that the
merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we
will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate un-
reviewed entries at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).

We intend to issue instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of
the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of LEU from France entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the date of publication of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided for by section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for AREVA will remain unchanged from
the rate assigned to the company in the most recently completed review
of that company, except for entries for which the importer claims to be
excluded from the order under the re-export provision of the scope,
which will require a cash deposit rate of zero percent; (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated companies not listed above, the
cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate
published for the most recent period with a completed segment of this
proceeding; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a
prior review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation, but the
manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for
the most recent period with a completed segment of this proceeding for
the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for
all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 19.95 percent,
the all-others rate established in the investigation.\6\ Entries
accompanied by certifications from the exporter, the importer, and the
end user, indicating that the LEU will be re-exported within 18 months
will be subject to a cash deposit requirement of zero percent ad
valorem. These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice is the only reminder to parties subject to the
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under the APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which
continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of
the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective
order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and
the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to the importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping
[[Page 58324]]
duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
These final results of administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
