65 FR 41444, July 5, 2000 C-122-815 (Pure and Alloy) Sunset Review Public Document MEMORANDUM TO: Troy H. Cribb Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration FROM: Jeffrey A. May Director Office of Policy SUBJECT: Issues and Decision Memo for the Full Sunset Reviews of Pure Magnesium and Alloy Magnesium from Canada; Final Results Summary: We have analyzed the comments and rebuttals of interested parties in the full sunset reviews of the countervailing duty orders covering pure magnesium and alloy magnesium from Canada. We recommend that you approve the positions we have developed in the Discussion of the Issues section of this memorandum. Below is the complete list of the issues in these sunset reviews for which we received case and rebuttal briefs by parties: 1. Likelihood of continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy A. Continuation of subsidy programs B. Elimination of subsidy programs 2. Net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail A. Rates from the investigation B. Use of a more recent rate Background: On February 29, 2000, the Department of Commerce (“the Department”) published in the Federal Register a notice of preliminary results of the full sunset reviews of the countervailing duty orders on pure magnesium and alloy magnesium from Canada (65 FR 10766) pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”). In our preliminary results, we found that revocation of the orders would likely result in continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. In addition, we preliminarily determined the following net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail if the orders were revoked to be 1.84 percent ad valorem for Norsk Hydro Canada Inc. ("NHCI") and 4.48 percent ad valorem for "all others." On April 14, 2000, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.209(c)(1)(i), we received a case brief on behalf of the Magnesium Corporation of America ("Magcorp") and respondent interested parties, NHCI and the Government of Quebec ("GOQ"). On April 24, 2000, within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.309(d), the Department received rebuttal comments from Magcorp and the GOQ. On March 17, 2000, we received a request for a hearing on behalf of the GOQ. Subsequently, on April 28, 2000, the GOQ withdrew its request and the Department canceled the hearing. We note that the Department issued the preliminary results of countervailing duty administrative reviews covering the period January 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998 on May 4, 2000 (65 FR 25910). Discussion of the Issues In accordance with section 751(c)(1) of the Act, the Department conducted these sunset reviews to determine whether termination of the countervailing duty orders would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. Section 752(c) of the Act provides that, in making this determination, the Department shall consider the net subsidy determined in the investigation and subsequent reviews, and whether any change in the program which gave rise to the net countervailable subsidy has occurred and is likely to affect that net countervailable subsidy. Section 752(b)(3) of the Act provides that the Department shall provide to the International Trade Commission ("the Commission") the net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail if the order is revoked. Likelihood of Continuation or Recurrence of a Countervailable Subsidy Interested Party Comments Comment 1: SDI Article 7 Grant In its case brief, the GOQ argues that the Department's reliance on the unamortized benefits from the 1988 SDI Article 7 Grant to NHCI to determinate likelihood of continuation or recurrence of subsidies fails to address core considerations of WTO provisions and violates the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("Subsidies Agreement"). The GOQ contends that the guidance in the Statement of Administrative Action ("SAA") is inconsistent with Article 21.3 of the Subsidies Agreement, which requires analysis of whether continued subsidization and injury will occur if the orders expire (see April 14, 2000, case brief of the GOQ at 3). The GOQ maintains that as the only financial contribution by the GOQ occurred in 1988 and did not continue, there is no evidence to support a claim that expiration of the subject order will lead to recurrence of subsidy conduct. Id. Further, the remaining, unamortized portions of the grant are not a "direct transfer" or other action that qualifies under the language of the Subsidies Agreement defining subsidization. Id. at 4. Because the subsidization arises from a one-time grant made under a program that was itself not countervailable and has been dormant or terminated, no continuation of subsidization is likely to occur. Id. In its case brief, NHCI supports the position of the GOQ that the Department erred in determining that a countervailable subsidy is likely to continue or recur if the orders are revoked, and NHCI requests that the Department reconsider it determination. In its rebuttal, Magcorp reasserts that the Department correctly determined that countervailable subsidies under the SDI Article 7 Program are likely to continue or recur if the orders are revoked. Magcorp contends that in this proceeding, it is undisputed that the SDI Article 7 program found to be countervailable in the original investigation continues to exist; therefore, countervailable benefits are likely to continue or recur if the orders are revoked (see April 24, 2000, rebuttal brief of Magcorp at 2). Magcorp also reasserts that the SAA at 889 and the Sunset Policy Bulletin state that a countervailable subsidy will continue to exist when the benefit stream, as defined by the Department, will continue beyond the end of the sunset review, without regard to whether the program that gave rise to the long-term benefit continues to exist. Id. at 3. Magcorp adds that, in the preliminary results, the Department did not address the undisputed point that SDI Article 7 program continues to exist; instead the Department relied on the fact that the allocated benefit stream will continue to exist past the end of the review. Id. In addition, Magcorp states that, contrary to the GOQ's claims that the Department failed to address the inconsistency between its practice and Article 21.3 of the Subsidies Agreement, there is no statutory requirement that the Department find a continuing act of subsidization. Id. at 5. Rather, the Department must evaluate whether a countervailable subsidy is likely to continue or recur. Thus, the SAA recognizes that the determination called for in sunset reviews is inherently predictive and speculative, indicating both that the Department will consider whether the fully allocated benefit stream is likely to continue after the end of the review and that this consideration is independent of whether the underlying subsidy program continues to exist. Id. at 6. Finally, Magcorp contends that Article 21.3 of the Subsidies Agreement simply requires consideration of whether revocation of the order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of subsidization and injury - the inquiry is prospective in nature - and does not provide a rule of decision under U.S. law. Id. at 7. Further, provisions in section 102(a)(1) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act ("URAA") and the H.R. Rep. No. 103-826, at 23 (1994), are meant to carry out the Congressional intent that the Agreements not be considered self-executing and that their legal effect in the United States is governed by implementing legislation. Id. Thus, the Department acted in accordance with the statute and the authoritative interpretation of the statute in determining that countervailable subsidies under SDI Article 7 are likely to continue or recur if the orders are revoked. Id. Department's Position As stated in our preliminary results, the Department shall consider the net countervailable subsidy determined in the investigation and subsequent reviews, and whether any change in the program which gave rise to the net countervailable subsidy has occurred that is likely to affect that net countervailable subsidy. We determine that certain subsidies have been terminated or do not exist. Specifically, the Department ruled that the Exemption from Payment of Water Bills has been terminated with no residual benefits (1) and the Department also determined, in the changed circumstances review, that the electricity contract between Hydro-Quebec and NHCI does not provide a countervailable subsidy. (2) Additionally, the Department determined in the original investigation that the funds provided by the GOQ under the Federal Funding for a Feasibility Study program were not countervailable. (3) The only remaining program to examine is the Article 7 SDI program, and the Department continues to disagree with NHCI and the GOQ that the countervailable benefit from the SDI grant will not continue if the orders are revoked. As we noted in the Sunset Policy Bulletin, the SAA at 889 provides that, with respect to subsidies for which benefits are allocated over time, the Department will consider whether the fully allocated benefit stream is likely to continue after the end of the review, without regard to whether the program that gave rise to the long-term benefit continues to exist. Further, we stated that we normally will determine that a countervailable subsidy will continue to exist when the benefit stream, as defined by the Department, will continue beyond the end of the sunset review (see section III.A.4 of the Sunset Policy Bulletin). Even if NHCI's and the GOQ's assertions that the grant was a one-time subsidy are true, the fact remains that, based on amortization, NHCI will continue to receive benefits until the year 2004, well after these sunset reviews are completed. As such, there is no inconsistency with Article 21.3 of the Subsidies Agreement, and no need to speculate about possible future subsidies. Therefore, consistent with the SAA and the Sunset Policy Bulletin, we determine that a countervailable subsidy is likely to continue or recur if these orders were revoked. Net Countervailable Subsidy Likely to Prevail Interested Party Comments Comment 1: Magcorp argues that Magnola Metallurgy Inc. ("Magnola") is, as a foreign producer and exporter of magnesium, subject to the order and the Department should investigate subsidies Magnola receives. Magcorp contends that the evidence on the record indicates that Magnola has produced the subject merchandise in Canada, and that U.S. sales of subject merchandise produced by Magnola are likely (see April 14, 2000, case brief of Magcorp at 6). In addition, Magcorp asserts that the Department should apply a more future-oriented standard and consider whether the evidence indicates a clear and present intent to produce or export the subject merchandise to the United States. Id. at 7. Thus, Magcorp asserts that the Department should determine that Magnola is a producer and exporter of the subject merchandise. In its rebuttal, the GOQ argues that there is no evidence to support a determination that Magnola has produced the subject merchandise. The GOQ contends that Magcorp provides no evidence demonstrating that commercial sales by Magnola are likely and, indeed, the Department has never considered a pilot production, which is treated as part of the "development" phase, to be the equivalent of actual production, which is defined to include production stages such as production engineering, manufacturing, integration, and inspection (see April 24, 2000, rebuttal brief of the GOQ at 3). Further, the GOQ contends that Magnola has never exported the subject merchandise; and that, pursuant to 19 C.F.R 351.218(e)(2)(i), the Department's practice is not to assign a CVD rate absent production and export, and further that it will not use a sunset review to investigate and calculate a CVD rate for a new shipper. Id. Accordingly, the GOQ asserts that the Department should ignore Magcorp's continued attempt to force interested party status (and a new investigation) on Magnola in these proceedings. Id. at 4. Department's Position As stated in our preliminary results, we agree with NHCI and the GOQ that consideration of Magnola and potential subsidies to Magnola in the course of these sunset reviews is not appropriate. We disagree with Magcorp that there is sufficient evidence to support a determination that Magnola has produced or exported the subject merchandise. Nor do we agree, even if we were to adopt Magcorp's proposed standard, that the evidence supports a "clear and present" intent to export. Pursuant to 19 C.F.R. 351.218(e)(2)(i), the Department normally will not assess a CVD rate absent production and export and, further, in no case will the Department calculate a CVD rate for a new shipper in the course of a sunset review. Therefore, we determine that Magnola is neither a producer nor exporter of the subject merchandise and, therefore, is not an interested party as defined in section 771(9) of the Act; nor is Magnola subject to this order. Comment 2: Magcorp argues that the Department erred in refusing to include water bill, electricity contract, and federal feasibility study subsidies in the rate likely to prevail if the order is revoked. First, Magcorp asserts that the Electricity Contract Subsidy Program has not been terminated and, although the GOQ was not found in the original investigation to have provided countervailable feasibility study subsidies, the Government of Canada ("GOC") was found to have provided such subsidies. Magcorp contends that although the Department found in the changed circumstances review that the original electric power contract between Hydro-Quebec and NHCI had been modified to eliminate the original benefit, the Department did not find that the electric power subsidy program had been modified or eliminated (see April 14, 2000, case brief of Magcorp at 11-12). Further, the Department did not find that NHCI (or any other producer of subject merchandise) was excluded from eligibility for program benefits, and NHCI's voluntary renunciation of benefits does not reflect what is likely to happen in the event of revocation. Id. at 13. Thus, the Department cannot infer from the electricity contract modification that the original electric power subsidy program is not fully operative and will, after revocation, have an impact on the bestowal of countervailable subsidies. Id. at 14. Magcorp also states that, even if the Department were to find that the electric power subsidy program has been modified to exclude subject companies from eligibility, the program is likely to be reinstated by the GOQ in its original form. Id. at 14. Magcop contends that the GOQ would have every incentive to reinstate the program in its original form if the orders were revoked because NHCI has announced a plan to double its production capacity at its Becancour, Quebec primary magnesium plant, and Magnola Metallurgy Inc. ("Magnola"), a Canadian producer/exporter of subject merchandise, is establishing the world's largest greenfield magnesium plant. Id. Second, Magcorp asserts that the Water Bill Exemption Program of La Societe du Parc Industriel du Centre du Quebec continues to exist, and the water bill benefit could be negotiated at any time to cover NHCI's current or future consumption needs (see April 14, 2000, case brief of Magcorp at 10). Further Magcorp states that the administrative review finding was never adequately explained by the Department and contends that NHCI's exhaustion of water bill credit does not provide evidence of an official act to terminate the program. Therefore, the Department should find in this review that the program continues to exist and is likely to confer countervailable benefits if the orders are revoked. Id. at 15. Third, Magcorp contends that the Canadian Federal Subsidy Program continues to exist, and the fact that the Department found in the original investigation that the original subsidiary agreement was terminated on March 31, 1992, does not imply that the federal feasibility study program itself was terminated. Id. at 16. In fact, Magcorp asserts that, as evidenced in its September 13, 1999, substantive responses, the original subsidiary agreement has been replaced by-or has been renewed by-other Subsidiary Agreements which provide funding for the program. Id. at 17. The GOQ asserts in its case brief that the Department should use a rate reflecting SDI amortization applicable to the year 2000 for both NHCI and "all others." That rate would be 1.22 percent, based on the most recent sales information in the seventh review that is now nearing completion (see April 14, 2000, case brief of the GOQ at 8). In its case brief, NHCI urges the Department to reconsider its preliminary determination and, rather, use NHCI's proposed rate of 1.22 percent. NHCI asserts that this rate is based upon a numerator calculated by the Department, as it reflects the Department's calculation of the amortized SDI benefit for the year 2000 and a denominator (which the Department has not yet used) that is based upon sales value information reported to the Department and on the record in the most current administrative review covering calendar year 1998 (see April 14, 2000, case brief of NHCI at 2-3). NHCI argues that this rate of 1.22 percent would best reflect the most recent information available to the Department and the best estimate of the likely denominator in the year 2000. Id. However, NHCI continues, if the Department still relies on the original rate, then the Department should look to the seventh (1998) administrative reviews of the orders or rely upon a rate more reflective of the net subsidy rate likely to prevail if the orders were revoked in 2000. Id. With respect to the rate for NHCI, Magcorp argues that there is no basis for the Department to report 1.22 percent as the net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail if the order were revoked; rather, the Department should select the subsidy rate from the original investigation. Magcorp contends that because the countervailable subsidy rate for NHCI in the original investigation was 21.61 percent ad valorem, and because none of the exceptions in the Sunset Policy Bulletin applies, 21.61 percent should be the rate likely to prevail for NHCI. Id. at 15. NHCI's assumption that its 1998 level of sales is an appropriate surrogate for its level of sales in the year 2000 is directly contrary to the SAA, which states that the Administration does not intend that the Department calculate future net countervailable subsidies. Id. at 15-16. Moreover, NHCI has not even demonstrated that this case presents the most "extraordinary circumstances" sufficient to trigger an exception to the Department's preference for actual calculations performed in investigations or prior reviews. Id. at 16. In its rebuttal, the GOQ asserts that the Department has repeatedly found that the credits under the water contract have been exhausted, and that the alleged preferential rates provided under the electricity contract with Hydro-Quebec have been eliminated (see April 24, 2000, rebuttal brief of the GOQ at 4). Moreover, the Department has consistently treated the water and electricity contracts as "single-contract" type programs that expired according to their own terms and they are clearly not likely to recur or continue in any way that would support continuation of the orders after sunset. Id. With respect to the Federal Feasibility Study Program, the GOQ rebuts Magcorp's arguments that the Canada-Quebec Subsidiary Agreement on Industrial Development was the subject of a later investigation in which the Department found countervailable subsidies. On the contrary, the GOQ contends that this program, under which NHCI received assistance, has expired, and there is no evidence to suggest that any magnesium producer has received benefits under any other subsidiary agreement. Id. at 5. Department's Position With respect to the inclusion of the water bill, electricity contract and federal feasibility study programs the Department normally will report to the Commission an original subsidy rate as adjusted to take into account program-wide changes. As stated in our preliminary results, because the Department has determined that the Exemption of Payment for Water Bills, the Preferential Electric Rates, and the Federal Funding for a Feasibility Study have been terminated or are not countervailable, we have subtracted the benefits arising from these programs from the original net subsidy. Exemption of Payment for Water Bills was terminated with respect to NHCI during the review period covering January 1, 1997, through December 31, 1997 (64 FR 488805, September 8, 1999). In a changed circumstances review, NHCI was found not to have received Preferential Electric Rates (57 FR 54047, November 16, 1992). The GOQ's Federal Funding for a Feasibility Study was found to be not countervailable by the Department in the final determination (57 FR 30946, July 13, 1992). The Department continues to agree with the GOQ that the amount of the amortized benefit for the Article 7 SDI grants should be taken into account when determining the net subsidy. We note that NHCI has not received any additional grants under this program since 1988. In the Final Results of Sunset Review: Live Swine from Canada (64 FR 60301, November 4, 1999), we stated that we normally will not determine that the mere availability of a program indicates the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy where there is a long track record of non-use of the program. However, we disagree that the subsidy rate of 1.22 percent, based on the calculation for the year 2000, as recommended by NHCI and the GOQ, should be used. Given that the only remaining program is the Article 7 SDI grants, we will report to the Commission the rate of 1.84 percent for NHCI because is the most recently calculated rate available to the Department, from the final results of the sixth (1997) administrative review. Comment 3: In its case brief, Magcorp argues that the Department published the wrong "all others" rate, and the preliminary results are not consistent with the SAA at 890 and the Department's policy of basing the "all others" rate in a sunset review on the "all others" rate from the original investigation. Magcorp contends that none of the programs found to provide countervailable subsidies in the original investigation has been terminated; thus, because a country-wide rate of 21.61 percent was reported in the original investigation, the "all others" rate for purposes of this review is 21.61 percent (see April 14, 2000, case brief of Magcorp at 21). However, if the Department chooses to report the current all others rate as the rate likely to prevail if the orders were revoked, the Department should report a rate of 7.34 percent ad valorem, the all others country-wide rate from the second review. Id. at 23. Finally, if the Department continues to decline to include the reported rate amounts for the water bill, electricity contract and federal feasibility study programs, it should adjust its preliminary rate for the SDI Article 7 program to reflect the original countervailable subsidy of 6.18 percent ad valorem. The GOQ argues that the "all others" rate is inappropriate and contrary to the Subsidies Agreement. The GOQ asserts that although the record establishes at most that NHCI may have left-over unamortized benefits from the SDI grant it received, there is no basis for finding subsidization with respect to any other entity (see April 14, 2000, case brief of the GOQ at 4). First, the Department cannot presume that unknown "others" will benefit from "continued subsidization" when all that remains in this record is the residue of a single grant, bestowed over 10 years ago on a single company, under a program the Department found non-countervailable except in this one instance of alleged disproportionate use. Id. The GOQ cites Delverde v. United States in its assertion that because the Department's obligations under the Subsidies Agreement and the implementing statute are specific, and without evidence on the record, the Department cannot presume the factual basis for a finding that a party or exporter may receive a "financial contribution" or "benefit" and, thus, is subject to countervailing duties. Id. at 5. Further, the GOQ cites the WTO Dispute Panel Report on United States - Imposition of Countervailing Duties on Certain Hot-Rolled Lead and Bismuth Carbon Steel Product Originating in the United Kingdom in which the panel ruled that the presumption in U.S. CVD practice that benefits continue to flow from untied, non recurring financial contributions to a predecessor entity was rebutted by an arms-length purchase. Id. at 5-6. The GOQ asserts that, although the Department's basis to assume in British Steel that a benefit stream from the non-recurring grant might continue with the successor entity, in this case, no other entity in the magnesium business has obtained an SDI grant or participated in any of the contracts or programs previously investigated. Id. at 6. The allegations from the original petition nearly ten years ago cannot now form a basis for finding an "all others" rate in these sunset reviews. Id. Therefore, absent evidence that others have obtained or will obtain disproportionate SDI grants no "all others" rate can be premised on the SDI program under the statute or under the Subsidies Agreement. Id. at 7. With respect to the 4.48 percent "all others" rate, the GOQ asserts that while, presumably, the rate is based on the finding applicable to the NHCI in the third administrative review covering the period January 1, 1994, through December 31, 1994, this approach is flawed for two reasons. First, the GOQ asserts that the rate for NHCI was formulated based on the SDI grant and the Exemption from Water Bills; however, because the Department determined that the Exemption from Water Bills was terminated there cannot be a danger of future "recurrence" of this alleged subsidy, and it cannot be used to establish an "all others" rate. Second, the GOQ contends that the 3.83 percent SDI rate set in the third review for NHCI cannot be used to establish a projected "all others" rate for non-investigated companies; if any NHCI-based rate is to be grafted into an "all others" category, it must be a current determination that incorporates all of the relevant information available to the investigating authority at the time of the determination, and a valuation of such benefits at such time. Id. at 8. In its rebuttal, Magcorp asserts that the GOQ's arguments fail to acknowledge that the very purpose of an "all others" rate is to cover exporters that have not been specifically investigated. Id. at 19. Moreover, under the Sunset Policy Bulletin the Department must report an "all others" rate because countervailing duty orders are not issued on a company-specific basis and Magnola was not assigned its own rate in the original investigation. Id. at 11. Therefore, because Magnola is a producer and exporter that is subject to the orders, and because it was not assigned its own rate in the original investigation, the Department must report an "all others" rate to the Commission. Magcorp also argues that the "all others" rate from the original investigation should not be updated based upon current subsidy calculations. Magcorp contends that because none of the programs found countervailable in the instant proceeding has been terminated, the Department should not make any adjustments to the original "all others" rate of 21.61 percent ad valorem. Nevertheless, even if the Department were to find that all programs other than SDI Article 7 have been terminated, it should simply subtract the original rates for the terminated programs from the original "all others" rate, resulting in an "all others" rate of 6.18 percent ad valorem (the original countervailing duty rate for SDI Article 7). Id. at 13. There is no basis in the Department's policy or practice for basing the all others rate on current subsidy calculations. Magcorp disagrees with the GOQ's claims that WTO dispute panel report requires that the "all others" rate be a current determination that incorporates all of the relevant information available to the investigating authority at the time of the determination, and a valuation of benefits at such time. Rather, Magcorp contends that the standards for reporting countervailing duties in sunset reviews are legally distinct and, therefore, the Department should adhere to its practice and base the "all others" rate on calculations from the original investigation. Id. at 14. The GOQ in its rebuttal reasserts that no "all others" rate should be referred to the Commission for the reasons spelled out in its April 14, 2000, case brief. The GOQ contends that the SAA and the Sunset Policy Bulletin recognize that the final rate from the investigation is "normally" the rate referred to the Commission, but that the rate referred must bear a demonstrable connection to what is likely to occur if the order expires (see April 24, 2000, rebuttal brief of the GOQ at 5). In this case, the sole remaining basis for continuing the order is unamortized benefits from a specific grant that was deemed disproportionate in the year it was approved. Id at 6. Therefore, there is no basis in the record to support a conclusion that benefits are likely to be conferred at the same level as was initially found in the original investigation. Id. To act in conformity with the statute and the Subsidies Agreement, the GOQ argues, the Department must use the more probative information in the results of the seventh administrative review in setting any rate to be referred to the Commission. Department's Position We disagree with Magcorp's argument that the Department should report to the Commission the "all others" rate of 21.6 percent, or that we should report an "all others" rate of 7.34 percent from the second administrative review. With the exception of the Article 7 SDI grants, the programs included in the original net subsidy from the investigation have been terminated. However, we also disagree with the GOQ that we should base our determination on the preliminary results of the seventh administrative review and use a rate reflecting SDI amortization applicable to the year 2000 for both NHCI and "all others." The GOQ cites the WTO Dispute Panel Report to demonstrate how the U.S. CVD practice presumes that benefits continue to flow from untied, non- recurring financial contributions to a predecessor entity. The GOQ asserts that, in this case, because no other entity in the magnesium business has obtained an SDI grant, the Department cannot determine an "all others" rate based on allegations from the original petition. We disagree with the GOQ. Because the SDI Article 7 program continues to exist and the allocated benefit stream will continue past the end of the sunset review, pursuant to the SAA at 889 and the Sunset Policy Bulletin, there is insufficient evidence that the original rate will not continue or recur. Therefore, we determine to report to the Commission the most recent "all others" rate 4.48 percent ad valorem (62 FR 18749, April 17, 1994). Timminco is excluded from the orders. Recommendation: Based on our analysis of the comments received, we recommend adopting all of the above positions. If these recommendations are accepted, we will publish the final results of review in the Federal Register.
