China, 70 FR 19928 (April 15, 2005) (Order). 

3The meaning of this term is the same as that 

used by the American Society for Testing and 

Materials in its Annual Book for ASTM Standards: 

Volume 01.02 Aluminum and Magnesium Alloys. 

4The material is already covered by existing 

antidumping orders. See Notice of Antidumping 

Duty Orders: Pure Magnesium from the People’s 

Republic of China, the Russian Federation and 

Ukraine; Notice of Amended Final Determination of 

Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Antidumping Duty

Antidumping Duty Order: Pure Magnesium in 

Granular Form from the People’s Republic of China, 

66 FR 57936 (November 19, 2001). 

5This third exclusion for magnesium-based 

reagent mixtures is based on the exclusion for 

reagent mixtures in the 2000–2001 investigations of 

magnesium from China, Israel, and Russia. See 

Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair 

Value: Pure Magnesium in Granular Form from the 

People’s Republic of China, 66 FR 49345 

(September 27, 2001); see also Final Determination

Value: Pure Magnesium from the Russian 

Federation, 66 FR 49347 (September 27, 2001). 

These mixtures are not magnesium alloys, because 

they are not combined in liquid form and cast into 

the same ingot.

shipments of subject merchandise 

covered by the antidumping duty order 

on magnesium metal from the People’s

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 13, 2021, Commerce 

published the Preliminary Results of 

this administrative review in the 

Federal Register.1 No interested party 

submitted comments concerning the 

Preliminary Results or requested a 

hearing in this administrative review. 

Commerce conducted this 

administrative review in accordance 

with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 2

The product covered by the Order is 

magnesium metal from China, which 

includes primary and secondary alloy 

magnesium metal, regardless of 

chemistry, raw material source, form, 

shape, or size. Magnesium is a metal or 

alloy containing by weight primarily the 

element magnesium. Primary 

magnesium is produced by 

decomposing raw materials into 

magnesium metal. Secondary 

magnesium is produced by recycling 

magnesium-based scrap into magnesium 

metal. The magnesium covered by the 

Order includes blends of primary and 

secondary magnesium. The subject 

merchandise includes the following 

alloy magnesium metal products made 

from primary and/or secondary 

magnesium including, without 

limitation, magnesium cast into ingots, 

slabs, rounds, billets, and other shapes; 

magnesium ground, chipped, crushed, 

or machined into rasping, granules, 

turnings, chips, powder, briquettes, and 

other shapes; and products that contain 

50 percent or greater, but less than 99.8 

percent, magnesium, by weight, and that 

have been entered into the United States 

as conforming to an ‘‘ASTM 

Specification for Magnesium Alloy’’ 3

and are thus outside the scope of the 

existing antidumping orders on 

magnesium from China (generally 

referred to as ‘‘alloy’’ magnesium). 

The scope of the Order excludes: (1) 

All forms of pure magnesium, including 

chemical combinations of magnesium 

and other material(s) in which the pure 

magnesium content is 50 percent or 

greater, but less than 99.8 percent, by 

weight, that do not conform to an 

‘‘ASTM Specification for Magnesium 

Alloy;’’ 4 (2) magnesium that is in liquid 

or molten form; and (3) mixtures 

containing 90 percent or less 

magnesium in granular or powder form 

by weight and one or more of certain 

non-magnesium granular materials to 

make magnesium-based reagent 

mixtures, including lime, calcium 

metal, calcium silicon, calcium carbide, 

calcium carbonate, carbon, slag 

coagulants, fluorspar, nephaline syenite, 

feldspar, alumina (Al203), calcium 

aluminate, soda ash, hydrocarbons, 

graphite, coke, silicon, rare earth 

metals/mischmetal, cryolite, silica/fly 

ash, magnesium oxide, periclase, 

ferroalloys, dolomite lime, and 

colemanite.5 The merchandise subject to 

this Order is classifiable under items 

8104.19.00, and 8104.30.00 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Although the 

HTSUS subheadings are provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

is dispositive. 

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, Commerce 

determined TMI and TMM had no 

shipments of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR.6 As noted 

in the Preliminary Results, we received 

no-shipment statements from TMI and 

TMM,7 and the statements were 

consistent with the information we 

received from U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP).8 Because Commerce 

did not receive any comments on its 

preliminary finding, Commerce 

continues to find that TMI and TMM 

did not have any shipments of subject 

merchandise during the POR. 

Assessment Rates 

Based on record evidence, we have 

determined that TMI and TMM had no 

shipments of subject merchandise 

during the POR, and, therefore, 

pursuant to Commerce’s assessment 

practice, any suspended entries entered 

under their case numbers will be 

liquidated at the China-wide entity 

rate.9

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

review for shipments of subject 

merchandise from China 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 previously 

investigated or reviewed Chinese and 

non-Chinese exporters that received a 

separate rate in a prior segment of this 

proceeding, including TMI, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

existing exporter-specific rate; (2) for all 

Chinese exporters of subject 

merchandise that have not been found 

to be entitled to a separate rate, 

including TMM, the cash deposit rate 

will be the China-wide rate of 141.49 

percent; 10 and (3) for all non-Chinese 

exporters of subject merchandise which 

have not received their own rate, the 

cash deposit rate will be the rate 

applicable to the Chinese exporter(s) 

that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. 

These cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) 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 Commerce’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of doubled antidumping duties. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protection Order 

This notice also serves as the only 

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 of 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and the terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

This notice is issued and published in 

accordance with sections 751(a) and 

777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(h). 

Dated: February 3, 2022.
