 SUMMARY: On May 22, 2014, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published in the 
                        **Federal Register**
                         the 
                        *Preliminary Results*
                         of the 2012-2013 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on solid fertilizer grade ammonium nitrate (ammonium nitrate) from the Russian Federation.[1]
                        
                         This review covers two groups of producers/exporters of the subject merchandise, JSC Acron and its affiliate JSC Dorogobuzh (collectively, Acron) and MCC EuroChem and its affiliates OJSC NAK Azot and OJSC Nevinnomyssky Azot (collectively, EuroChem). The period of review (POR) is April 1, 2012, through March 31, 2013. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the 
                        *Preliminary Results*
                         and, based upon our analysis of the comments, we continue to find that sales of subject merchandise to the United States have not been made at prices below normal value (NV).
 DATES: *Effective Date:*
                         November 24, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On May 22, 2014, the Department published the 
                    *Preliminary Results*
                     in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . In July 2014, we received a case brief from CF Industries, Inc. and El Dorado Chemical Company (collectively, the petitioners). In August 2014, we received rebuttal briefs from Acron and EuroChem. In October 2014, the Department held an ex-parte 
                    ( print page 69833)
                    meeting with the petitioners at their request. Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to this order is solid, fertilizer grade ammonium nitrate products. The merchandise subject to this order is classified in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) at subheadings 3102.30.00.00 and 3102.290000. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise within the scope is dispositive.[2] Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum. A list of the issues which parties raised and to which we respond in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as Appendix I. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Enforcement and Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (IA ACCESS). IA ACCESS is available to registered users at 
                    *http://iaaccess.trade.gov,*
                     and it is available to all parties in the Central Records Unit, Room 7046, of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly at 
                    *http://enforcement.trade.gov/​frn/​index.html*. The signed and the electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on a review of the record and comments received from interested parties regarding our 
                    *Preliminary Results,*
                     we have made no changes to Acron's or EuroChem's margin calculations. Period of Review The POR is April 1, 2012, through March 31, 2013. Final Results of the Review We are assigning the following dumping margins to the firms listed below as follows: Producer/exporter

 Assessment Rates Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), the Department has determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise and deposits of estimated duties, where applicable, in accordance with the final results of this review. The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of the final results of this administrative review pursuant to 19 CFR 351.356.8(a). Pursuant to the 
                    *Final Modification for Reviews,*[3]
                    
                     because the respondents' weighted-average dumping margins are zero, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.[4]
                    
                     The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review. Cash Deposit Requirements The following deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the notice of final results of administrative review for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates for Acron and EuroChem are less than 0.50 percent and, therefore, 
                    *de minimis*
                     within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1); accordingly, no cash deposits will be required; (2) for merchandise exported by manufacturers or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recently completed segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, or the original investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently completed segment for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 253.98 percent, the all-others rate established in the order.[5]
                    
                     These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice serves as the only 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 the Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties. Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order This notice 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 return/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. This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(5). Dated: November 17, 2014. Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
