Department of Commerce December 30, 2005 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On August 29, 2005, the Department of Commerce (the ``Department'') published a notice of preliminary results of the full sunset review of the antidumping duty order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway (``Salmon from Norway'') pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''). See Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon From Norway: Preliminary Results of the Full Sunset Review of Antidumping Duty Order, 70 FR 51012 (August 29, 2005) (``Preliminary Results''). In those Preliminary Results we provided interested parties an opportunity to comment on our preliminary results. We received a case brief from the Norwegian Seafood Federation and the Norwegian Seafood Association (``respondents'') and a rebuttal brief from Heritage Salmon Company, Inc., and Atlantic Salmon of Maine (the ``domestic interested parties ''). A hearing, requested by respondents, was held on October 26, 2005 at the Department. As a result of this review, the Department finds that revocation of this order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping.

In response to requests from Allegheny Ludlum and United Steelworkers of America, AFL-CIO/CLC (collectively, ``Petitioners'') and Ugine & ALZ Belgium, NV (Respondent), the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on stainless steel plate in coils (SSPC) from Belgium. See Notice of Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 70 FR 37749 (Initiation Notice). This administrative review covered the period of May 1, 2004, through April 30, 2005. We are now rescinding this review as a result of both Petitioners' and Respondent's withdrawal of their requests for an administrative review.
