Background 

On August 26, 2011, the Department 

of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published 

a notice of initiation of the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain pasta 

from Turkey, covering the period July 1, 

2010, through June 30, 2011. See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Requests for Revocation in 

Part, 76 FR 53404 (August 26, 2011). 

The preliminary results of review are 

currently due April 1, 2012. 

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary 

Results 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

that the Department make a preliminary 

determination within 245 days after the 

last day of the anniversary month of an 

order for which a review is requested. 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act further 

states that, if it is not practicable to 

complete the review within the time 

period specified, the administering 

authority may extend the 245-day 

period to issue its preliminary results to 

up to 365 days. 

We determine that completion of the 

preliminary results of this review within 

the 245-day period is not practicable as 

the Department needs additional time to 

analyze complex issues regarding 

affiliation and knowledge of U.S. 

destination. Given the complexity of 

these issues, and in accordance with 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are 

extending the time period for issuing 

the preliminary results of this review by

1The Department initiated this review for 113 

producers/exporters. Based on timely withdrawal of 

requests for review, the Department rescinded the 

review with respect to 84 producers/exporters in 

the First Partial Preliminary Results. These final 

results and final rescission cover 21 companies. 

2The second partial preliminary results covered 

the remaining companies subject to the review. See 

Fresh Garlic From the People’s Republic of China: 

Preliminary Results of the 2009–2010 Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR 76375 

(December 7, 2011). The final results for these 

companies are currently due no later than April 5, 

2012. 

3The individual members of the FGPA are 

Christopher Ranch L.L.C., The Garlic Company, 

Valley Garlic, and Vessey and Company, Inc. 

120 days. Therefore, the preliminary 

results are now due no later than July 

30, 2012. The final results continue to 

be due 120 days after publication of the 

preliminary results. 

This notice is published pursuant to 

sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the 

Act.

Fresh Garlic From the People’s 

Republic of China: Partial Final Results 

and Partial Final Rescission of the 

2009–2010 Administrative Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: On October 20, 2011, the 

Department of Commerce (Department) 

published the partial preliminary results 

of the administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on fresh garlic 

from the People’s Republic of China 

(PRC) covering the period of review 

(POR) of November 1, 2009, through 

October 31, 2010. The Department is 

issuing these partial final results for the 

PRC-wide entity only. 

Based on the analysis of the record 

and the comments received, the 

Department finds that seven companies 

subject to this review, including 

mandatory respondents, Shandong 

Longtai Fruits and Vegetables Co., Ltd. 

(Longtai) and Weifang Hongqiao 

International Logistic Co., Ltd. 

(Hongqiao), did not demonstrate their 

eligibility for separate rate status and, 

thus, will be considered part of the PRCwide entity for purposes of these final 

results. These companies are listed in 

Appendix I. The Department is also 

rescinding the review with respect to 14 

exporters who had ‘‘no shipments’’ 

during the POR. A list of these 

companies is found in Appendix II. 

DATES: Effective Date: February 27, 

2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 20, 2011, the Department 

published in the Federal Register the 

partial preliminary results of the 2009– 

2010 administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on fresh garlic 

from the PRC. See Fresh Garlic From the 

People’s Republic of China: Partial 

Preliminary Results, Rescission of, and 

Intent To Rescind, in Part, the 2009– 

2010 Administrative Review, 76 FR 

65172 (October 20, 2011) (First Partial 

Preliminary Results).1 On December 7, 

2011, the Department issued its second 

partial preliminary results.2 Since the 

First Partial Preliminary Results, the 

following events have occurred. 

On November 21, 2011, the 

Department extended the deadline for 

submission of case briefs to December 1, 

2011 and rebuttal briefs to December 6, 

2011. On November 30, 2011, the Fresh 

Garlic Producers Association (FGPA) 

and its individual members 3

(collectively, Petitioners) submitted a 

document called ‘‘Petitioners’ 

Comments on Certain No Shipment 

Claims and Department’s Partial 

Preliminary Results’’ (No Shipment 

Comments). On December 9, 2011, the 

Department rejected Petitioners’ No 

Shipment Comments as untimely new 

factual information. See the 

Department’s December 9, 2011 letter to 

Petitioners. On December 1, 2011, 

Petitioners, and Hongqiao, Sunny 

Import & Export Co. Ltd., and Shenzhen 

Greening Trading Co., Ltd. (collectively, 

Respondents) submitted case briefs. On 

December 6, 2011, Petitioners submitted 

their rebuttal brief. 

Scope of the Order 

The products covered by the order are 

all grades of garlic, whole or separated 

into constituent cloves, whether or not 

peeled, fresh, chilled, frozen, 

provisionally preserved, or packed in 

water or other neutral substance, but not 

prepared or preserved by the addition of 

other ingredients or heat processing. 

The differences between grades are 

based on color, size, sheathing, and 

level of decay. The scope of the order 

does not include the following: (a) 

Garlic that has been mechanically 

harvested and that is primarily, but not 

exclusively, destined for non-fresh use; 

or (b) garlic that has been specially 

prepared and cultivated prior to 

planting and then harvested and 

otherwise prepared for use as seed. The 

subject merchandise is used principally 

as a food product and for seasoning. The 

subject garlic is currently classifiable 

under subheadings 0703.20.0010, 

0703.20.0020, 0703.20.0090, 

0710.80.7060, 0710.80.9750, 

0711.90.6000, and 2005.90.9700 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). 

Although the HTSUS subheadings are 

provided for convenience and customs 

purposes, our written description of the 

scope of the order is dispositive. In 

order to be excluded from the order, 

garlic entered under the HTSUS 

subheadings listed above that is (1) 

mechanically harvested and primarily, 

but not exclusively, destined for nonfresh use or (2) specially prepared and 

cultivated prior to planting and then 

harvested and otherwise prepared for 

use as seed must be accompanied by 

declarations to U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to that effect.
