1. On 05/22/2015, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) sustained the Final Redetermination issued by Commerce pursuant to Fedmet Resources Corporation v. United States (Ct. No. 12-00215). As a result, Commerce published in the Federal Register (80 FR 34899) on 06/18/2015, with an effective date of 06/01/2015, the Notice of Court Decision Not in Harmony With Final Scope Ruling and Notice of Amended Final Scope Ruling Pursuant to Court Decision.

2. Although, as a result of the CIT's final decision, Bastion® magnesia alumina carbon bricks which were produced and/or exported by Fengchi Imp. and Exp. Co., Ltd. of Haicheng City and Fengchi Refractories Co., of Haicheng City, and imported by Fedmet Resources Corporation are outside the scope of the order on certain magnesia carbon bricks from the People's Republic of China (PRC), CBP is directed to suspend or continue to suspend liquidation of all entries of Bastion® magnesia alumina carbon bricks from the PRC entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 06/01/2015. For purposes of this scope ruling, , Bastion® magnesia alumina carbon bricks are defined as containing approximately 8 to 15 percent aluminum oxide (chemical formula Al2O3), more commonly known as alumina, 3 to 15 percent carbon, 75 to 90 percent magnesia, as well as smaller amounts of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide, iron oxide, and titanium dioxide.

3. As a result of the CIT's final decision, a cash deposit rate of zero is applicable to entries identified in paragraph 2 above.

4. Because the revised cash deposit rate is to be applied retroactively to entries made on or after 06/01/2015, Commerce will issue instructions for granting a refund on any overcollection in a separate message.

5. These cash deposit requirements will remain in effect until further notice.
