Following an expiry review initiated in January 2006, the Council, by Regulation (EC) No 442/2007 (%), renewed these measures at their current level for two years. The measures consist of specific duties. 2. Request for a review A request for a partial interim review pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation was lodged by Open Joint Stock Company (OJSC) Azot Cherkassy (the applicant), an exporting producer from Ukraine. The request was limited in scope to dumping as far as the applicant is concerned. In its request pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation, the applicant claimed that the circumstances with regard to dumping, on the basis of which the measures in force were established, had changed and that these changes were of a lasting nature. The applicant further alleged that a comparison of normal value based on its own costs or domestic prices and export prices to the Community would lead to a reduction of dumping significantly below the level of the current measures. Therefore, it claimed that the continued imposition of measures at the existing levels was no longer necessary to offset dumping. 3. Investigation Having determined, after consulting the Advisory Committee, that the request contained sufficient prima facie  evidence, the Commission announced on 19 December 2006 the initiation of a partial interim review pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation by a notice of initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union (7).
