SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
all low-enriched uranium from France.
Low-enriched 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
Methodology
The Department is conducting this
review in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act). For a full
description of the methodology
underlying our conclusions, see the
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
The Preliminary Decision Memorandum
is on file electronically via Enforcement
and Compliance’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (ACCESS).
ACCESS is available to registered users
at https://access.trade.gov, and it is
available to all parties in the Central
Records Unit in room 7046 of the main

Decision Memorandum can be accessed

entries of subject merchandise during
the POR. Global Nuclear Fuels-America
(GNF–A) 3, an interested party,
submitted a separate response to the
Department’s initial questionnaire. Data
that the Department obtained from CBP
showed entries of LEU from AREVA
during the POR. The Department issued
two supplemental questionnaires to
AREVA, and one supplemental
questionnaire to GNF–A, and received a
timely responses. The Department also
requested and received entry documents
from CBP.
Based on the questionnaire responses
filed by AREVA and GNF–A, and
information received from CBP, we
preliminarily determine that, while the
majority of the entries of LEU from
France, identified in the import data
from CBP, were either excluded from
the order under the re-export provision
of the scope or not subject to the order,
AREVA did have shipments of
merchandise subject to the antidumping
order on LEU from France during the
POR. The shipments in question were
identified by AREVA as ‘‘sample sales,’’
however the Department finds these to
be bona fide sales, and therefore subject
to antidumping order on LEU from
France.4
Facts Available
For the preliminary results, we have
relied, in part, on facts available.
AREVA did not provide full responses
to the Departments initial questionnaire
and did not provide sales and cost data
requested in a supplemental.5 Because
we lack necessary AREVA sales and cost
data, we determine that it is appropriate
to apply ‘‘facts available’’ pursuant to
section 776(a)(2)(B) of the Act. We
further determine that an adverse
inference is warranted in accordance
with section 776(b) of the Act because,
pursuant to section 782(e) of the Act,
AREVA did not act to the best of its
ability to comply with our requests for
information and we do not have
sufficient sales and cost information on
the record to calculate a weightedaverage dumping margin for AREVA.
Because AREVA did not act to the best
of its ability to respond to the
Department’s request for information,
we have drawn an adverse inference in
selecting from among the facts available,
pursuant to 776(a) and (b) of the Act.

Preliminary Results of Review
As a result of this review, we
preliminarily determine that the
following weighted-average dumping
margins on LEU from France exist for
the period February 1, 2013, through
January 31, 2014 at the following rates:
Producer or exporter
AREVA ........................................
Weightedaverage
dumping
margin
(percent)
30.22
Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the
Department shall determine and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review. If we continue to rely on
adverse facts available to establish
AREVA’s weighted-average dumping
margin, then we will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties for entries of
subject merchandise during the POR
which were produced and/or exported
by AREVA at a rate equal to the
weighted-average dumping margin
found in the final results.
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 CBP to
liquidate un-reviewed entries at the allothers rate if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.6
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 be equal to the weightedaverage dumping margin established in
the final results of this administrative
review, except for entries which AREVA

recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and (4) the cash
deposit rate for all other manufacturers
or exporters will continue to be 19.95

in the investigation.7 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.

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 duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.

administrative review are issued and
published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

The Department is conducting this review in accordance with section

Preliminary Determination
AREVA timely filed a ``no shipment'' certification stating that
they had no entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Global
Nuclear Fuels-America (GNF-A) \3\, an interested party, submitted a
separate response to the Department's initial questionnaire. Data that
the Department obtained from CBP showed entries of LEU from AREVA
during the POR. The Department issued two supplemental questionnaires
to AREVA, and one supplemental questionnaire to GNF-A, and received a
timely responses. The Department also requested and received entry
documents from CBP.

\3\ GNF-A is an importer of subject merchandise and fabricator
of nuclear fuel for use in power plants outside the United States.
For information regarding GNF-A see Preliminary Decision Memorandum
at 2 and 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on the questionnaire responses filed by AREVA and GNF-A, and
information received from CBP, we preliminarily determine that, while
the majority of the entries of LEU from France, identified in the
import data from CBP, were either excluded from the order under the re-
export provision of the scope or not subject to the order, AREVA did
have shipments of merchandise subject to the antidumping order on LEU

For the preliminary results, we have relied, in part, on facts

Preliminary Results of Review
As a result of this review, we preliminarily determine that the
following weighted-average dumping margins on LEU from France exist for
the period February 1, 2013, through January 31, 2014 at the following
rates:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average

margin

Assessment Rates
Upon issuance of the final results, the Department shall determine
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess antidumping

weighted-average dumping margin, then we will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties for entries of subject merchandise during the POR
which were produced and/or exported by AREVA at a rate equal to the

The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on

Notification to Importers

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 duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties

published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
