Correction of Ministerial Errors in Preliminary Antidumping Duty 
Determination: Silicomanganese from Ukraine

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 26, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Greg Thompson or Donna Berg, Office of 
Antidumping Investigations, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
2336 or (202) 482-0114, respectively.

AMENDED PRELIMINARY DETERMINATION: On June 17, 1994, we disclosed our 
calculations for the preliminary determination to counsel for 
petitioners. On June 20, 1994, and July 8, 1994, we received timely 
submissions from petitioners alleging ministerial errors in the 
Department of Commerce's (Department) preliminary determination 
calculations. (For specific details of these allegations and our 
analysis of them, see Memoranda from Richard W. Moreland to Barbara R. 
Stafford dated June 27, 1994, and July 14, 1994).
    Petitioners alleged that the Department made certain ``ministerial 
errors'' with respect to calculating usage figures for Nikopol 
Ferroalloys Plant, one of the respondents in this investigation. We 
agree in part with these allegations, and in accordance with procedures 
set forth in the proposed regulations, we are amending Ukraine's 
preliminary dumping margin because the corrections represent a change 
of more than five absolute percentage points and more than 25 percent 
of the dumping margin calculated in the original (erroneous) 
preliminary determination. See Sec. 353.15(g)(4)(ii) of the 
Department's proposed regulations, 57 FR 1131 (January 10, 1992). The 
corrected dumping margin for Ukraine is 163.00 percent.
    This notice is published pursuant to procedures set forth in the 
Department's proposed regulations, Sec. 353.15(g)(3), 57 FR 1131 
(January 10, 1992).

    Dated: July 19, 1994.
Barbara R. Stafford,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
