SUMMARY: On January 5, 2016, the Department of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published in the Federal Register the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on magnesium metal from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) covering the period April 1, 2014, through March 31, 2015.1 This review covers two PRC companies, Tianjin Magnesium International, Co., Ltd. (‘‘TMI’’) and Tianjin Magnesium Metal Co., Ltd. (‘‘TMM’’). 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 and TMM did not have reviewable AGENCY: Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. On January 22, 2008, the Department published Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Documents Submission Procedures; APO Procedures, 73 FR 3634 (January 22, 2008). Parties wishing to participate in this investigation should ensure that they meet the requirements of these procedures (e.g., the filing of letters of appearance as discussed at 19 CFR 351.103(d)).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On January 5, 2016, the Department published the Preliminary Results.2 We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results, but no comments were received. Also, as explained in the memorandum from the Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement & Compliance, the Department exercised its authority to toll all administrative deadlines due to the recent closure of the Federal Government.3 As a consequence, all deadlines in this segment of the proceeding have been extended by four business days. The revised deadline for the final results is now May 10, 2016. 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 The product covered by this antidumping duty order is magnesium metal from the PRC, which includes primary and secondary alloy magnesium metal, regardless of chemistry, raw material source, form, shape, or size. Magnesium is a metal or alloy containing by weight primarily the element magnesium. Primary magnesium is produced by decomposing raw materials into magnesium metal. Secondary magnesium is produced by recycling magnesium-based scrap into magnesium metal. The magnesium covered by this order includes blends of primary and secondary magnesium. The subject merchandise includes the following alloy magnesium metal products made from primary and/or secondary magnesium including, without limitation, magnesium cast into ingots, slabs, rounds, billets, and other shapes; magnesium ground, chipped, crushed, or machined into rasping, 2 Id. 1 See Magnesium Metal From the People’s Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2014– 2015, 81 FR 220 (January 5, 2016) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’).

Final Determination of No Shipments As explained, in the Preliminary Results, the Department found that TMI and TMM did not have reviewable entries during the POR.7 Also in the Preliminary Results, the Department stated that consistent with its recently announced refinement to its assessment practice in non-market economy (‘‘NME’’) cases, it is appropriate not to rescind the review in part in this circumstance but, rather, to complete the review with respect to TMI and TMM and to issue appropriate instructions to CBP based on the final results of the review.8 After issuing the Preliminary Results, the Department received no comments from interested parties, nor has it received any information that would cause it to revisit its preliminary determination. Therefore, for these final results, the Department continues to find that TMI and TMM did not have any reviewable entries during the POR. Assessment Rates The Department determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review.9 The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review. Additionally, consistent with the Department’s refinement to its assessment practice in NME cases, because the Department determined that TMI and TMM had no shipments of subject merchandise during the POR, any suspended entries that entered under TMI’s and TMM’s antidumping duty case number (i.e., at that exporter’s rate) will be liquidated at the PRC-wide rate.10 Cash Deposit Requirements The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice of final 7 See Preliminary Results, 81 FR at 221.

These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice serves as a final reminder to 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 POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Department’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Administrative Protective Order This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (‘‘APO’’) of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.

Magnesium Metal From the People's Republic of China: Final 
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; 2014-2015

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: On January 5, 2016, the Department of Commerce 
(``Department'') published in the Federal Register the preliminary 
results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
magnesium metal from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') covering 
the period April 1, 2014, through March 31, 2015.\1\ This review covers 
two PRC companies, Tianjin Magnesium International, Co., Ltd. (``TMI'') 
and Tianjin Magnesium Metal Co., Ltd. (``TMM''). 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 and TMM did not have reviewable entries during the period of review 
(``POR'').

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 5, 2016, the Department published the Preliminary 
Results.\2\ We invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary 
Results, but no comments were received. Also, as explained in the 
memorandum from the Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement & 
Compliance, the Department exercised its authority to toll all 
administrative deadlines due to the recent closure of the Federal 
Government.\3\ As a consequence, all deadlines in this segment of the 
proceeding have been extended by four business days. The revised 
deadline for the final results is now May 10, 2016.

for Enforcement & Compliance, ``Tolling of Administrative Deadlines 
As a Result of the Government Closure During Snowstorm Jonas,'' 
dated January 27, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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

    The product covered by this antidumping duty order is magnesium 
metal from the PRC, which includes primary and secondary alloy 
magnesium metal, regardless of chemistry, raw material source, form, 
shape, or size. Magnesium is a metal or alloy containing by weight 
primarily the element magnesium. Primary magnesium is produced by 
decomposing raw materials into magnesium metal. Secondary magnesium is 
produced by recycling magnesium-based scrap into magnesium metal. The 
magnesium covered by this order includes blends of primary and 
secondary magnesium.
    The subject merchandise includes the following alloy magnesium 
metal products made from primary and/or secondary magnesium including, 
without limitation, magnesium cast into ingots, slabs, rounds, billets, 
and other shapes; magnesium ground, chipped, crushed, or machined into 
rasping,

[[Page 25387]]

granules, turnings, chips, powder, briquettes, and other shapes; and 
products that contain 50 percent or greater, but less than 99.8 
percent, magnesium, by weight, and that have been entered into the 
United States as conforming to an ``ASTM Specification for Magnesium 
Alloy'' \4\ and are thus outside the scope of the existing antidumping 
orders on magnesium from the PRC (generally referred to as ``alloy'' 
magnesium).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The meaning of this term is the same as that used by the 
American Society for Testing and Materials in its Annual Book for 
ASTM Standards: Volume 01.02 Aluminum and Magnesium Alloys.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The scope of this order excludes: (1) All forms of pure magnesium, 
including chemical combinations of magnesium and other material(s) in 
which the pure magnesium content is 50 percent or greater, but less 
than 99.8 percent, by weight, that do not conform to an ``ASTM 
Specification for Magnesium Alloy'' \5\; (2) magnesium that is in 
liquid or molten form; and (3) mixtures containing 90 percent or less 
magnesium in granular or powder form by weight and one or more of 
certain non-magnesium granular materials to make magnesium-based 
reagent mixtures, including lime, calcium metal, calcium silicon, 
calcium carbide, calcium carbonate, carbon, slag coagulants, fluorspar, 
nephaline syenite, feldspar, alumina (Al203), calcium aluminate, soda 
ash, hydrocarbons, graphite, coke, silicon, rare earth metals/
mischmetal, cryolite, silica/fly ash, magnesium oxide, periclase, 
ferroalloys, dolomite lime, and colemanite.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The material is already covered by existing antidumping 
orders. See Notice of Antidumping Duty Orders: Pure Magnesium from 
the People's Republic of China, the Russian Federation and Ukraine; 
Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair 
Value: Antidumping Duty Investigation of Pure Magnesium from the 
Russian Federation, 60 FR 25691 (May 12, 1995); and Antidumping Duty 
Order: Pure Magnesium in Granular Form from the People's Republic of 
China, 66 FR 57936 (November 19, 2001).
    \6\ This third exclusion for magnesium-based reagent mixtures is 
based on the exclusion for reagent mixtures in the 2000-2001 
investigations of magnesium from China, Israel, and Russia. See 
Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Pure Magnesium 
in Granular Form From the People's Republic of China, 66 FR 49345 
(September 27, 2001); Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair 
Value: Pure Magnesium From Israel, 66 FR 49349 (September 27, 2001); 
Final Determination of Sales at Not Less Than Fair Value: Pure 
Magnesium From the Russian Federation, 66 FR 49347 (September 27, 
2001). These mixtures are not magnesium alloys, because they are not 
combined in liquid form and cast into the same ingot.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The merchandise subject to this order is classifiable under items 
8104.19.00, and 8104.30.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States (``HTSUS''). Although the HTSUS items are provided for 
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the 
merchandise is dispositive.

Final Determination of No Shipments

    As explained, in the Preliminary Results, the Department found that 
TMI and TMM did not have reviewable entries during the POR.\7\ Also in 
the Preliminary Results, the Department stated that consistent with its 
recently announced refinement to its assessment practice in non-market 
economy (``NME'') cases, it is appropriate not to rescind the review in 
part in this circumstance but, rather, to complete the review with 
respect to TMI and TMM and to issue appropriate instructions to CBP 
based on the final results of the review.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Preliminary Results, 81 FR at 221.
    \8\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011) (``Assessment 
Practice Refinement'') and the ``Assessment Rates'' section, below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After issuing the Preliminary Results, the Department received no 
comments from interested parties, nor has it received any information 
that would cause it to revisit its preliminary determination. 
Therefore, for these final results, the Department continues to find 
that TMI and TMM did not have any reviewable entries during the POR.

Assessment Rates

    The Department determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties 
on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with 
the final results of this review.\9\ The Department intends to issue 
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of 
these final results of review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, consistent with the Department's refinement to its 
assessment practice in NME cases, because the Department determined 
that TMI and TMM had no shipments of subject merchandise during the 
POR, any suspended entries that entered under TMI's and TMM's 
antidumping duty case number (i.e., at that exporter's rate) will be 
liquidated at the PRC-wide rate.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Assessment Practice Refinement, 76 FR 65694.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice of 
final results of the administrative review, as provided by section 
751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For TMI and TMM, which claimed no

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to 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 POR. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 terms of an APO is a sanctionable 
violation.
    We are issuing and publishing these final results and this notice 
in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.
