Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of final results of antidumping duty administrative 
review.

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

SUMMARY: On July 5, 1995, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of its administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on pure magnesium from Canada. The review covers 
one company, Norsk Hydro Canada, Inc. (NHCI), for the period August 1, 
1993, through July 31, 1994. Since there were no shipments of the 
subject merchandise during the period of review, we have assigned NHCI 
the 21 percent cash deposit rate established for all entries of pure 
magnesium in Pure Magnesium From Canada: Amendment of Final 
Determination of Sales at Less than Fair Value and Order in Accordance 
with Decision on Remand (58 FR 62643), November 29, 1993.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 22, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Applicable Statute and Regulations

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute and to the 
Department's regulations are references to the provisions as they 
existed on December 31, 1994.

Background

    On July 5, 1995, the Department published in the Federal Register 
the preliminary results (60 FR 34967) of its administrative review of 
the antidumping duty order on pure magnesium from Canada. The 
Department has now completed this administrative review in accordance 
with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Tariff 
Act).

Scope of the Review

    The product covered by this review is pure magnesium. Pure 
unwrought magnesium contains at least 99.8 percent magnesium by weight 
and is sold in various slab and ingot forms and sizes. Granular and 
secondary magnesium are excluded from the scope of this review. Pure 
magnesium is currently classified under subheading 8104.11.0000 of the 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS). HTS item numbers are provided for 
convenience and for Customs purposes. The written description remains 
dispositive.

Final Results of Review

    The Department received no comments on its preliminary results. The 
first administrative review of this order has not yet been completed. 
Therefore, we have assigned NHCI the cash deposit established for ``all 
other'' producers and exporters in Pure Magnesium From Canada: 
Amendment of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and 
Order in Accordance with Decision on Remand (58 FR 62643), November 29, 
1993. The rate is 21 percent.
    Furthermore, the following deposit requirements will be effective 
for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the 
final results of this administrative review, as provided for by section 
751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act: (1) The cash deposit rate for the reviewed 
firm will be that firm's rate established in the final results of this 
administrative review; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated 
companies not listed above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be 
the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if 
the exporter is not a firm covered in any review or the original less-
than-fair value (LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash 
deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period 
for the manufacturer of the merchandise; (4) for all other producers 
and/or exporters of this merchandise, the cash deposit shall be 21 
percent, the ``all others'' rate from the LTFV investigation. These 
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until the 
publication of the final results of the next administrative review.
    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 to file a certificate regarding the 
reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the 
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 353.34(d). Timely written notification of 
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to 
comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable 
violation.
    This administrative review and notice are in accordance with 
section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1)) and 19 CFR 
353.22.

    Dated: September 15, 1995.
Paul L. Joffe,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
