Purified Carboxymethylcellulose from 

Mexico: Preliminary Results of the 

First Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review of 

Antidumping Duty Order 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On June 2, 2010, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) initiated sunset reviews of 

the antidumping duty orders on purified 

carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) from 

Finland, Mexico, the Netherlands, and 

Sweden, pursuant to section 751(c) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act). 

On the basis of the notice of intent to 

participate, and adequate substantive 

responses filed on behalf of the 

domestic and respondent interested 

parties, the Department is conducting a 

full sunset review of the antidumping 

duty order on CMC from Mexico, 

pursuant to section 751(e)(3)(B) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(2)(i). 

As a result of this sunset review, the 

Department preliminarily finds that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

order with respect to CMC from Mexico 

would likely lead to continuation or 

recurrence of dumping at the levels 

listed below in the section entitled 

‘‘Preliminary Results of Review.’’

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 2, 2010, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

notice of initiation of the sunset reviews 

of the antidumping duty orders on CMC 

from Finland, the Netherlands, Mexico, 

and Sweden, pursuant to section 751(c) 

of the Act. See Initiation of Five-year 

(‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 75 FR 30777 (June 2, 

2010) (Notice of Initiation). 

The Department received a notice of 

intent to participate from domestic 

interested party Aqualon Company 

(Aqualon) within the deadline specified 

in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i). The 

domestic interested party claimed 

interested party status under section 

771(9)(C) of the Act, as the sole 

manufacturer of a domestic–like 

product in the United States. 

The Department received complete 

substantive responses to the Notice of 

Initiation from the domestic interested 

party and respondent interested party, 

Quimica Amtex S.A. de C.V. (Quimica 

Amtex), within the 30-day deadline 

specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).1

The Department did not receive any 

rebuttal comments from the domestic 

interested party or respondent 

interested party. 

On July 22, 2010, the Department 

determined that respondent interested 

party accounted for more than 50 

percent of exports by volume of the 

subject merchandise and, therefore, 

submitted an adequate substantive 

response to the Department’s Notice of 

Initiation. See Memorandum to Richard 

O. Weible, Director, AD/CVD 

Operations, Office 7, ‘‘Adequacy 

Determination in the First Five-year 

‘‘Sunset Review’’ (2005 through 2009) of 

the Antidumping Duty Order on 

Purified Carboxymethylcellulose from 

Mexico,’’ dated July 22, 2010 (Adequacy 

Memo). The Department also 

determined that the domestic interested 

party submitted an adequate response. 

See Adequacy Memo at 2 and 19 CFR 

351.218(d)(3)(ii) and 19 CFR 

351.218(e)(1)(A). In accordance with 19

2Although HTSUS number 3912.31.00.10 may be 

more specific to subject merchandise, it was not 

created until 2005. As such, we are relying on 

HTSUS number 3912.31.00 for purposes of this 

sunset review because in determining whether 

revocation of an order would likely lead to 

continuation or recurrence of dumping, the 

Department considers the margins established in 

the investigation and/or reviews conducted during 

the sunset review period as well as the volume of 

imports for the periods before and after the issuance 

of the order. See section 752(c)(1) of the Act. 

CFR 351.218(e)(2)(i), the Department 

determined to conduct a full sunset 

review of this antidumping duty order 

and notified the U.S. International 

Trade Commission. See Letter to Ms. 

Catherine DeFilippo, Director, Office of 

Investigations, U.S. International Trade 

Commission, from James Maeder, 

Director, Office 2, AD/CVD Operations, 

entitled ‘‘Expedited and Full Sunset 

Reviews of the Antidumping Duty 

Orders Initiated in June 2010,’’ dated 

July 22, 2010. 

On September 15, 2010, the 

Department contacted Aqualon 

regarding the reference to Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS) number 3913.31.00.10 at 12 of 

the Appendix of its substantive 

response, dated July 1, 2010. Aqualon 

stated on September 15, 2010, that it 

had mistakenly referenced the wrong 

HTSUS number in its substantive 

response and intended to reference 

HTSUS number 3912.31.00.10. See 

Memorandum to the File from Dena 

Crossland, Regarding Preliminary 

Results of First Sunset Review of the 

Antidumping Duty Order on Purified 

Carboxymethylcellulose from Mexico; 

Correction to Domestic Interested 

Party’s July 1, 2010, Substantive 

Response, dated September 16, 2010. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is all purified CMC, sometimes also 

referred to as purified sodium CMC, 

polyanionic cellulose, or cellulose gum, 

which is a white to off–white, non– 

toxic, odorless, biodegradable powder, 

comprising sodium CMC that has been 

refined and purified to a minimum 

assay of 90 percent. Purified CMC does 

not include unpurified or crude CMC, 

CMC Fluidized Polymer Suspensions, 

and CMC that is cross–linked through 

heat treatment. Purified CMC is CMC 

that has undergone one or more 

purification operations, which, at a 

minimum, reduce the remaining salt 

and other by–product portion of the 

product to less than ten percent. The 

merchandise subject to the order is 

currently classified in the HTSUS at 

subheading 3912.31.00.2 This tariff 

classification is provided for 

convenience and Customs purposes; 

however, the written description of the 

scope of the order is dispositive. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in this review are 

addressed in the ‘‘Issues and Decision 

Memorandum for the Preliminary 

Results of First Sunset Review of the 

Antidumping Duty Order on Purified

Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 

and Countervailing Duty Operations, to

Secretary for Import Administration 

(Decision Memo), which is hereby 

adopted by, and issued concurrently 

with, this notice. The issues discussed 

in the Decision Memo include the 

likelihood of continuation or recurrence 

of dumping and the magnitude of the 

margins likely to prevail if the order 

were revoked. Parties can find a 

complete discussion of all issues raised 

in this review and the corresponding 

recommendations in this public 

memorandum which is on file in the 

Central Records Unit, room 7046 of the

Preliminary Results 

The Department preliminarily 

determines that revocation of the 

antidumping duty order on CMC from 

Mexico is likely to lead to continuation 

or recurrence of dumping at the 

following weighted–average margins: 

Quimica Amtex ............. 12.61 percent 

All Others ...................... 12.61 percent

Forfeiture Fund 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act authorizes the Secretary of 

Commerce through NOAA to pay 

certain enforcement related costs from 

sums received as fines, penalties, and 

forfeitures of property for violations of 

any marine resource law enforced by the 

Secretary. Fines, penalties, and 

forfeitures of property received by 

NOAA are deposited in an enforcement 

asset forfeiture fund. The Secretary is 

proposing a new policy to clearly 

articulate prohibited and authorized 

uses of these funds to ensure no conflict 

of interest– either real or perceived – 

associated with its use while continuing 

to promote a sound enforcement 

program dedicated to conserving and 

protecting our nation’s marine 

resources. The Secretary requests 

comments from the public on listed 

prohibited and authorized uses of the 

funding and, in particular, expenditures 

for activities that would promote 

compliance with regulations 

promulgated by NOAA. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before 5 p.m., EST, on 

November 29, 2010.
