Silicon Metal From Brazil: Notice of 

Rescission of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: In response to a request from 

Globe Metallurgical Inc. (Globe), a 

domestic producer of silicon metal, the 

Department of Commerce initiated an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on silicon 

metal from Brazil. The period of review 

covers July 1, 2005, through February 

15, 2006. Because the respondents had 

no sales or shipments to the United 

States during the period of review, we 

are now rescinding the review of these 

companies. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 19, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 1, 2006, the Department 

of Commerce (the Department) 

published a notice of its intent to 

rescind the administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on silicon 

metal from Brazil. See Silicon Metal 

from Brazil: Notice of Intent to Rescind 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 71 FR 69550 (December 1, 2006) 

(Notice of Intent to Rescind). In that 

notice, the Department explained that, 

in response to its initiation of the 

administrative review, the respondents 

notified the Department that they had 

no entries, exports, or sales of the 

subject merchandise during the period 

July 1, 2005, through June 30, 2006. The 

Department examined the results of a 

customs data query and found no 

evidence of entries or shipments of the 

subject merchandise during the period 

of review that would contradict the 

respondents’ claims. 

On December 21, 2006, the 

Department published the revocation of 

the antidumping duty order on silicon 

metal from Brazil. See Silicon Metal 

from Brazil: Revocation of Antidumping 

Duty Order, 71 FR 76635 (December 21, 

2006). The effective date of the 

revocation is February 16, 2006. As 

such, the period of review covering 

sales of subject merchandise is now July 

1, 2005, through February 15, 2006. 

Rescission of the Administrative 

Review 

The Department will rescind an 

administrative review with respect to an 

exporter or producer if the Department 

concludes that there were no entries, 

exports, or sales of the subject 

merchandise during the period of 

review. See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3). The 

Department gave interested parties 15 

days from the date of publication of the 

Notice of Intent to Rescind to comment 

on its intent to rescind this review. No 

interested party has submitted 

comments on our intent to rescind this 

review within the given time period. 

Accordingly, we are rescinding this 

administrative review. 

In accordance with the Department’s 

clarification of its assessment policy 

(seeAntidumping and Countervailing 

Duty Proceedings: Assessment of 

Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 

6, 2003)), in the event any entries were 

made during the period of review 

through intermediaries under U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

case numbers for the respondents, the 

Department will instruct CBP to 

liquidate such entries at the all–others 

rate in effect on the date of entry. 

This notice 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 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of the return or 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4) 

and section 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended.
