International Trade Administration August 18, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On February 15, 2006, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') published in the Federal Register its preliminary results of administrative review of the countervailing duty (``CVD'') order on low enriched uranium (``LEU'') from France for the period January 1, 2004, through December 31, 2004 (see Notice of Preliminary Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review: Low Enriched Uranium from France, 71 FR 7924 (February 15, 2006) (``LEU 2004 Preliminary Results'')). The Department has now completed the administrative review in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''). Based on our analysis of the comments received, the Department has not revised the net subsidy rate for Eurodif S.A. (``Eurodif'')/ Compagnie Generale Des Matieres Nucleaires (``COGEMA''), the producer/ exporter of subject merchandise covered by this review. For further discussion of our analysis of the comments received for these final results, see the August 14, 2006, Issues and Decision Memorandum from Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, to David M. Spooner, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, concerning the Final Results of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review: Low Enriched Uranium from France (``LEU 2004 Decision Memorandum'').
