Certain Pasta From Italy: Final Results 

of Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Review; 2012 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance,

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Department) conducted an 

administrative review of the 

countervailing duty (CVD) order on 

certain pasta from Italy. On August 25, 

2014, we published the Preliminary 

Results for this administrative review.1

The period of review (POR) is January 

1, 2012 through December 31, 2012. We 

find that DeMatteis Agroalimentare 

S.p.A. (also known as, De Matteis 

Agroalimentare SpA) (DeMatteis) 

received countervailable subsidies 

during the POR, and that Fratelli 

DeCecco di Filippo Fara San Martino 

S.p.A. (also known as, F.lli De Cecco di 

Filippo Fara San Martino S.p.A.) 

(DeCecco) received de minimis 

countervailable subsidies during the 

POR. As such, we are applying 

DeMatteis’ rate to the other firms subject 

to this review that were not individually 

examined. 

DATES: Effective Date: March 2, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

deferred our analysis of certain 

programs to a post-preliminary analysis. 

On October 30, 2014, we issued a postpreliminary analysis memorandum.2 We 

invited interested parties to file case 

briefs and rebuttal briefs following the 

release of the post-preliminary analysis 

memorandum. Only the Government of 

Italy (the GOI) filed a case brief. 

Scope of the Order 

The scope of the Order consists of 

certain pasta from Italy.3 The 

merchandise subject to the order is

Appendix to this notice. 

Methodology 

We have conducted this review in 

accordance with section 751(a)(1)(A) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act). For each of the subsidy programs 

found countervailable, we determine 

that there is a subsidy, i.e., a 

government-provided financial 

contribution that gives rise to a benefit 

to the recipient, and that the subsidy is 

specific.5 In making these findings, we 

have relied, in part, on an adverse 

inference in selecting from among the 

facts otherwise available because we 

find that the GOI did not act to the best 

of its ability to respond to our requests 

for information regarding certain 

programs.6

DeMatteis reported that it made 

export sales of pasta to the United States 

through an unaffiliated trading 

company, Agritalia S.r.L. (Agritalia), 

during the POR. In the Preliminary 

Results, we stated our intent to reexamine the approach we used 

regarding subsidies to Agritalia in the 

Tenth Administrative Review,7 and we 

solicited comments in that regard.8 We 

received no comments on this issue. 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(b) and 19 

CFR 351.221(b), Agritalia is not a 

respondent in this review because a 

review was not requested for Agritalia. 

However, pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.525(c), benefits from subsidies 

provided to a trading company which 

exports subject merchandise shall be 

cumulated with benefits from subsidies 

provided to the firm that is producing 

the subject merchandise that is sold 

through the trading company, regardless 

of whether the trading company and the 

producing firm are affiliated. Thus, for 

these final results, we are cumulating 

the benefits from subsidies received by 

Agritalia with the benefits from 

subsidies received by DeMatteis based 

on the percentage of DeMatteis’ exports 

of subject merchandise to the United 

States that were made through Agritalia 

during the POR.9

Final Results of the Review 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.221(b)(5), we calculated individual 

subsidy rates for the mandatory 

respondents, DeMatteis and DeCecco. 

Three respondents were not selected 

for individual review: Ghigi Industria 

Agroalimentare in San Clemente srl, 

Pasta Granoro S.r.L. (also known as, 

Pastifico Attilio Mastromauro Granoro 

S.r.L), and Valdigrano di Flavio Pagani 

S.r.L. For these non-selected 

respondents, we assigned the CVD rate 

calculated for DeMatteis because it is 

the only rate calculated in this review 

that is not de minimis.10 As such, we 

find the net countervailable subsidy rate 

for the producers and/or exporters 

under review to be as follows: 

Producer/exporter Net subsidy 

rate 

DeMatteis Agroalimentare S.p.A. (also known as De Matteis Agroalimentare SpA) ......................................................................... 1.72 

Fratelli DeCecco di Filippo Fara San Martino S.p.A. (also known as F.lli De Cecco di Filippo Fara San Martino S.p.A.) ............... * 0.19 

Ghigi Industria Agroalimentare in San Clemente srl ........................................................................................................................... 1.72 

Pasta Granoro S.r.L. (also known as, Pastifico Attilio Mastromauro Granoro S.r.L) ......................................................................... 1.72 

Valdigrano di Flavio Pagani S.r.L ........................................................................................................................................................ 1.72 

* (De minimis.) 

Assessment Rates 

Consistent with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(2), 

we intend to issue assessment 

instructions to the U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) fifteen days 

after the date of publication of these 

final results. We will instruct CBP to 

assess countervailing duties on POR 

entries in the amounts shown above, 

except for entries of merchandise 

produced and/or exported by DeCecco, 

which will be liquidated without regard 

to countervailing duties because its 

subsidy rate is de minimis. 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

In accordance with section 751(a)(1) 

of the Act, we intend to instruct CBP to 

collect cash deposits of estimated 

countervailing duties in the amounts 

shown above on shipments of subject 

merchandise entered, or withdrawn

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after the date of publication of the final 

results of this review, except that cash 

deposits of zero percent will be required 

for entries from DeCecco because its 

subsidy rate is de minimis. For all nonreviewed companies (except Barilla G. e 

R. F.lli S.p.A. and Gruppo Agricoltura 

Sana S.r.l., which are excluded from the 

order,11 and Pasta Lensi S.r.l., which 

was revoked from the Order),12 we will 

instruct CBP to continue to collect cash 

deposits at the most recent companyspecific or all-others rate applicable to 

the company. Accordingly, the cash 

deposit rates that will be applied to 

companies covered by the Order, but 

not examined in this review, are those 

established in the most recently 

completed segment of the proceeding 

for each company. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Administrative Protective Order 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective order (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the 

disposition of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 

written notification of return or 

destruction of APO materials or 

conversion to judicial protective order is 

hereby requested. Failure to comply 

with the regulations and the terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results in accordance with sections 

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.213.
