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
