Scope of the Orders
For purposes of these orders, the
products covered are all forms, sizes
and compositions of silicomanganese,
except low-carbon silicomanganese,
including silicomanganese briquettes,
fines and slag. Silicomanganese is a
ferroalloy composed principally of
manganese, silicon and iron, and
normally contains much smaller
proportions of minor elements, such as
carbon, phosphorous and sulfur.
Silicomanganese is sometimes referred
to as ferrosilicon manganese. Parties can
find the full description of the scope of
these AD Orders in the Issues and
Decision Memo, which 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 is
available to all parties in the Central
Records Unit in Room B8024 of the
main Commerce building. In addition, a
complete version of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum can be accessed
directly on the internet at https://
trade.gov/enforcement/. The signed and
electronic versions of the Decision
Memorandum are identical in content.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in these reviews are
addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, including the likelihood
of continuation or recurrence of
dumping in the event of revocation and
the magnitude of dumping margins
likely to prevail if the orders were
revoked. Parties can find a complete
discussion of all issues raised in these
reviews and the corresponding
recommendations in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum.
