Department intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP 15 days after the 

publication date of the final results of 

these reviews. For assessment purposes, 

we calculated exporter/importer- (or 

customer) specific assessment rates for 

merchandise subject to this review.91

Where appropriate, we calculated an ad 

valorem rate for each importer (or 

customer) by dividing the total dumping 

margins for reviewed sales to that party 

by the total entered values associated 

with those transactions. For dutyassessment rates calculated on this 

basis, we will direct CBP to assess the 

resulting ad valorem rate against the 

entered customs values for the subject 

merchandise. Where appropriate, we 

calculated a per-unit rate for each 

importer (or customer) by dividing the 

total dumping margins for reviewed 

sales to that party by the total sales 

quantity associated with those 

transactions. For duty-assessment rates 

calculated on this basis, we will direct 

CBP to assess the resulting per-unit rate 

against the entered quantity of the 

subject merchandise. Where an 

importer- (or customer) specific 

assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less 

than 0.50 percent), the Department will 

instruct CBP to assess that importer (or 

customer’s) entries of subject 

merchandise without regard to 

antidumping duties. We intend to 

instruct CBP to liquidate entries 

containing subject merchandise 

exported by the PRC-wide entity at the 

PRC-wide rate we determine in the final 

results of this review. 

For Muzi Carbon, a company 

receiving a separate rate that was not 

selected for individual review, we will 

calculate an assessment rate based on 

the weighted average of the cash deposit 

rates calculated for the companies 

selected for individual review 

consistent with section 735(c)(5)(B) of 

the Act. Where the weighted average ad 

valorem rate is zero or de minimis, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate 

appropriate entries without regard to 

antidumping duties. See 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(2). 

Cash-Deposit Requirements 

The following cash-deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for all shipments 

of the subject merchandise from the PRC 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date, as provided by section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the 

Fangda Group, Fushun Jinly, and Muzi 

Carbon the cash deposit rate will be 

their respective rates established in the 

final results of this review, except if the 

rate is zero or de minimis no cash 

deposit will be required; (2) for 

previously investigated or reviewed PRC 

and non-PRC exporters not listed above 

that have separate rates, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

exporter-specific rate published for the 

most recent period; (3) for all PRC 

exporters of subject merchandise which 

have not been found to be entitled to a 

separate rate, the cash deposit rate will 

be the PRC-wide rate of 159.64 percent; 

and (4) for all non-PRC exporters of 

subject merchandise which have not 

received their own rate, the cash deposit 

rate will be the rate applicable to the 

PRC exporters that supplied that nonPRC exporter. These deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification of Interested Parties 

This notice also serves as a 

preliminary reminder to importers of 

their responsibility under section 

351.402(f) of the Department’s 

regulations 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 administrative review and this 

notice are in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, and 

sections 351.213 and 351.221(b)(4) of 

the Department’s regulations.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 1, 2010, the Department of 

Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’) published 

a notice of opportunity to request an 

administrative review for the period of 

review covering June 1, 2009, through 

May 31, 2010 (‘‘POR’’). See Antidumping 

or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, 

or Suspended Investigation; 

Opportunity To Request Administrative 

Review, 75 FR 30383 (June 1, 2010). In 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b)(1), 

Globe Metallurgical Inc. (‘‘Globe’’), a 

domestic producer of silicon metal, 

requested an administrative review of 

the antidumping duty order on silicon 

metal from the PRC with respect to the 

following companies: Jiangxi Gangyuan 

Silicon Industry Company Ltd. 

(‘‘Gangyuan’’); Shanghai Jinneng 

International Trade Co., Ltd. (‘‘Shanghai 

Jinneng’’); and Zhejiang Kaihua 

Yuantong Silicon Industry Co., Ltd. 

(‘‘Zhejiang’’).1 No other party requested 

a review. The Department published the 

initiation of the administrative review of 

the antidumping duty order on silicon 

metal from the PRC on July 28, 2010, in 

which the Department initiated an 

administrative review of the 

aforementioned three companies 

covering the period June 1, 2009, 

through May 31, 2010. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Administrative Reviews and Requests 

for Revocations in Part, 75 FR 44224 

(July 28, 2010). 

On August 18, 2010, Gangyuan and 

Shanghai Jinneng notified the 

Department that they had no entries, 

exports, or sales of the subject 

merchandise to the United States during 

the POR. On September 20, 2010, the 

Department issued a no shipments 

e-mail to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (‘‘CBP’’) requesting 

notification within 10 days of receipt of 

the e-mail if CBP had information 

contrary to the no shipments claims of 

Gangyuan and Shanghai Jinneng. Also, 

the Department conducted a CBP data 

query to ascertain whether there were 

entries of subject merchandise from 

Gangyuan or Shanghai Jinneng. See 

August 11, 2010, Memorandum from 

Analyst to File entitled ‘‘2009–2010
