SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 1, 2023, Commerce published the notice of initiation of
the sunset review of the AD order on pure granular magnesium from
China,\1\ pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).\2\ On February 9, 2023, Commerce received a notice
of intent to participate from US Magnesium LLC (US Magnesium), a
domestic interested party, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR
351.218(d)(1)(i).\3\ US Magnesium claimed domestic interested party
status under section 771(9)(C) of the Act, as a manufacturer of
domestic like product in the United States.\4\ On February 21, 2023, US
Magnesium submitted a timely substantive response within the 30-day
deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i).\5\ Commerce did not
receive a substantive response from any other interested parties with
respect to the Order covered by this sunset review, nor was a hearing
requested. On March 23, 2023, Commerce notified the U.S. International
Trade Commission that it did not receive an adequate substantive
response from respondent interested parties.\6\ As a result, pursuant
to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2),
Commerce is conducting an expedited (120-day) sunset review of the
Order.
