[A–427–812]

Calcium Aluminate Flux From France;

Preliminary Results of Antidumping

Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Preliminary Results of

Antidumping Duty Administrative

Review.

SUMMARY: In response to a request from

one respondent, Lafarge Aluminates

(LA), and its U.S. subsidiary, Lafarge

Calcium Aluminates, Inc. (LCA)

(collectively, Lafarge), the Department

of Commerce (the Department) is

conducting an administrative review of

the antidumping duty order on calcium

aluminate (CA) flux from France. This

review covers one manufacturer/

exporter of the subject merchandise to

the United States, Lafarge, for the period

June 1, 1995 through May 31, 1996.

We have preliminarily determined

that U.S. sales have been made below

normal value (NV). If these preliminary

results are adopted in our final results

of administrative review, we will

instruct the U.S. Customs Service

(Customs) to assess antidumping duties

equal to the differences between the

United States Price (USP) and NV.

Interested parties are invited to

comment on these preliminary results.

Parties who submit arguments in this

proceeding are requested to submit with

the argument (1) a statement of the

issues, and (2) a brief summary of the

argument.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 11, 1997.

The Applicable Statute

Unless otherwise indicated, all

citations to the statute are references to

the provisions effective January 1, 1995,

the effective date of the amendments

made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act)

by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act

(URAA). In addition, unless otherwise

indicated, all citations to the

Department’s regulations are to the

current regulations, as amended by the

interim regulations published in the

Federal Register on May 11, 1995 (60

FR 25130).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On June 13, 1994, the Department

published in the Federal Register (59

FR 30337) the antidumping duty order

on CA flux from France. On June 6,

1996 (61 FR 28840), the Department

published in the Federal Register a

notice of opportunity to request an

administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on CA flux

from France. In accordance with 19 CFR

353.22(a)(1)(1995), we received a timely

request for review from a respondent,

Lafarge. We published a notice of

initiation of this antidumping duty

administrative review on August 8, 1996

(61 FR 41373), for the period June 1,

1995 through May 31, 1996.

The Department is now conducting

this administrative review in

accordance with section 751 of the Act.

Scope of the Review

Imports covered by this review are

shipments of CA flux, other than white,

high purity CA flux. This product

contains by weight more than 32

percent but less than 65 percent

alumina and more than one percent

each of iron and silica.

CA flux is currently classifiable under

the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the

United States (HTSUS) subheading

2523.10.0000. The HTSUS subheading

is provided for convenience and U.S.

Customs’ purposes only. The written

description of the scope of this order

remains dispositive.

Constructed Export Price

In calculating Lafarge’s USP, the

Department treated respondent’s sales

as constructed export price (CEP) sales,

as defined in section 772(b) of the Act,

because the subject merchandise was

sold to the first unaffiliated purchaser

after importation into the United States.

We calculated CEP based on packed

or bulk, ex-U.S. warehouse or delivered

prices to unaffiliated customers in the

United States. We made deductions

from the gross unit price, where

appropriate, for the following movement

charges: loading material at the Fos

plant in France, foreign inland freight

from plant to port, foreign brokerage and

handling costs, international freight,

marine insurance, U.S. brokerage and

handling, inland freight from port to

U.S. warehouse, unloading charges,

inland freight to processors, demurrage

and stop-off charges, and U.S. freight

from the warehouse to the customer, in

accordance with section 772(c)(2)(A) of

the Act. Pursuant to section

772(d)(1)(B), we also deducted credit

expenses, product liability insurance,

and travel expenses for technical

services. Pursuant to section

772(d)(1)(D), we deducted U.S. indirect

selling expenses, and inventory carrying

costs incurred in the United States. We

did not deduct indirect selling expenses

(i.e., administrative expenses, inventory

carrying costs, personnel costs for

technicians) incurred by LA in France

because these expenses were for

commercial activity taking place outside

the United States. We also deducted

commissions in accordance with section

772(d)(1)(A) of the Act.

We also deducted an amount for

profit in accordance with section 772

(d)(3) of the Act.
