Silicomanganese From Brazil, the People's Republic of China, and Ukraine: Final Results of the Expedited Third Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping Duty Orders

On August 1, 2011, the Department of Commerce ("Department") initiated the third sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on silicomanganese from Brazil, the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), and Ukraine \1\ pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended ("Act"). The Department received a notice of intent to participate in all three reviews from the domestic interested party, Eramet Marietta, Inc. ("Eramet"), within the time specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).\2\ On August 31, 2011, the Department received substantive responses from Eramet. Based on the receipt of the substantive responses filed by the domestic interested party within the 30-day deadline as specified by 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i) and the lack of response from any respondent interested party, the Department conducted expedited sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2). As a result of these sunset reviews, the Department finds that revocation of the antidumping duty orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping, at the levels indicated in the "Final Results of Sunset Reviews" section of this notice. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
