SUMMARY: On December 28, 2009, the 

Department of Commerce (the 

Department) published its preliminary 

results of the 2007–2008 administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on honey from Argentina. See Honey

Cooperativas Argentinas (ACA). The 

period of review (POR) is December 1, 

2007, through November 30, 2008. We 

invited interested parties to comment on 

the Preliminary Results, and received no

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 28, 2009, the 

Department published in the Federal 

Register the preliminary results of the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on honey from 

Argentina for the period December 1, 

2007, through November 30, 2008. See 

Preliminary Results. We invited parties 

to comment on the Preliminary Results. 

We received no comments or a request 

for a hearing. 

As explained in the memorandum 

from the Deputy Assistant Secretary 

(DAS) for Import Administration, the 

Department exercised its discretion to 

toll Import Administration deadlines for 

the duration of the closure of the 

Federal Government from February 5, 

through February 12, 2010. Thus, all 

deadlines in this segment of the 

proceeding were extended by seven 

days. Therefore, the revised deadline for 

the final results of this review became 

May 4, 2010. See Memorandum to the 

Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for 

Import Administration, regarding 

‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As 

a Result of the Government Closure 

During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated 

February 12, 2010. 

Period of Review 

The POR is December 1, 2007, 

through November 30, 2008. 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by the order 

is honey from Argentina. The products 

covered are natural honey, artificial 

honey containing more than 50 percent 

natural honey by weight, preparations of 

natural honey containing more than 50 

percent natural honey by weight, and 

flavored honey. The subject 

merchandise includes all grades and 

colors of honey whether in liquid, 

creamed, comb, cut comb, or chunk 

form, and whether packaged for retail or 

in bulk form. The merchandise is 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

0409.00.00, 1702.90.90, and 2106.90.99 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTSUS). Although 

the HTSUS subheadings are provided 

for convenience and Customs purposes, 

the Department’s written description of 

the merchandise under this order is 

dispositive. 

Determination to Revoke Order, in Part 

The Department may revoke, in whole 

or in part, an antidumping duty order 

upon completion of a review under 

section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act). While Congress has 

not specified the procedures that the 

Department must follow in revoking an 

order, in whole or in part, the 

Department has developed a procedure 

for revocation that is described in 19 

CFR 351.222. For exporters or producers 

requesting revocation from an 

antidumping duty order, this regulation 

requires, inter alia, that the company 

submit the following: (1) a certification 

that the company has sold the subject 

merchandise at not less than normal 

value (NV) in the current review period 

and that the company will not sell 

subject merchandise at less than NV in 

the future; (2) a certification that the 

company sold commercial quantities of 

the subject merchandise to the United 

States in each of the three years forming 

the basis of the request; and (3) an 

agreement to immediate reinstatement 

in the order if the Department concludes 

that the company, subsequent to the 

revocation, sold subject merchandise at 

less than NV. See 19 CFR 351.222(e)(1). 

Upon receipt of such a request, the 

Department will consider: (1) whether 

the company in question has sold 

subject merchandise at not less than NV 

for a period of at least three consecutive 

years and is not likely to sell the subject 

merchandise at less than NV in the 

future; and (2) whether the company has 

agreed in writing to its immediate 

reinstatement in the order, as long as 

any exporter or producer is subject to 

the order, if the Department concludes 

that the company, subsequent to the 

revocation, sold the subject 

merchandise at less than NV. See 19 

CFR 351.222(b)(2). 

On December 30, 2008, pursuant to 

section 751(d) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.222(b)(2), ACA requested revocation 

of the antidumping duty order with 

respect to its sales of subject 

merchandise. ACA’s request was 

accompanied by certification that it: (1) 

sold subject merchandise at not less 

than NV in the current review period 

and will not sell subject merchandise at 

less than NV in the future; (2) sold 

subject merchandise in commercial 

quantities during each of the 

consecutive three years forming the 

basis for its request for revocation; and 

(3) agreed to immediate reinstatement of 

the antidumping duty order if the 

Department concludes ACA has sold 

subject merchandise at less than NV 

subsequent to revocation. See 19 CFR 

351.222(e)(1). 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

determined that ACA’s request meets all 

of the criteria under 19 CFR 

351.222(e)(1) and that revocation is 

warranted pursuant to 19 CFR 

351.222(b)(2). See Preliminary Results, 

74 FR at 68572 and Memorandum to 

John M. Andersen, Acting Deputy 

Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 

and Countervailing Duty Operations, 

‘‘Request by Asociacion de Cooperativas 

Argentinas (ACA) for Revocation in the 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review of Honey from Argentina,’’ dated 

December 18, 2009. We have not 

received any comments or evidence to 

alter our findings for these final results. 

Therefore, we find that ACA qualifies 

for revocation of the antidumping duty 

order on honey from Argentina under 19 

CFR 351.222(b)(2) and, accordingly, we 

are revoking the order with respect to 

subject merchandise exported by ACA.1

Effective Date of Revocation 

The revocation of ACA applies to all 

entries of subject merchandise that are 

exported by ACA, and are entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 85 / Tuesday, May 4, 2010 / Notices 23675 

consumption on or after December 1, 

2008. The Department will order the 

suspension of liquidation ended for all 

such entries and will instruct U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 

release any cash deposits or bonds. The 

Department also will instruct CBP to 

refund with interest any cash deposits 

on entries made on or after December 1, 

2008. 

Final Results of Review 

We determine that the following 

dumping margin exists for the period 

December 1, 2007, through November 

30, 2008: 

Exporter 

Weighted–Average 

Margin (percentage) 

Asociacion de 

Cooperativas Argentinas ........................... 0.00 

Assessment Rates 

The Department shall determine, and 

CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on 

all appropriate entries, in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.212(b). Since the 

importer–specific assessment rate 

calculated in the final results of this 

review is 0.00 percent, we will instruct 

CBP to liquidate without regard to 

antidumping duties for these entries. 

See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). The 

Department intends to issue appropriate 

assessment instructions directly to CBP 

15 days after publication of these final 

results of review. 

The Department clarified its 

automatic assessment regulation on May 

6, 2003 (68 FR 23954). This clarification 

will apply to entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR produced 

by the company(ies) included in these 

final results of review for which the 

reviewed company(ies) did not know 

their merchandise was destined for the 

United States. In such instances, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate un–reviewed 

entries at the all–others rate if there is 

no rate for the intermediate 

company(ies) involved in the 

transaction. For a full discussion of this 

clarification, see Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 

Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 

FR 23954 (May 6, 2003). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for all shipments 

of the subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the publication 

date of these final results, consistent 

with section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) for 

ACA, which is revoked from the order, 

no cash deposit will be required; (2) if 

the exporter is not a firm covered in this 

review, but was covered in a previous 

review or the original less than fair 

value (LTFV) investigation, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company–specific rate published for the 

most recent period; (3) if the exporter is 

not a firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original LTFV 

investigation, but the manufacturer is, 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established for the most recent period 

for the manufacturer of the 

merchandise; and (4) if neither the 

exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm 

covered in this or any previous review 

conducted by the Department, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be 30.24 

percent, which is the all–others rate 

established in the LTFV investigation. 

See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order; 

Honey From Argentina, 66 FR 63672 

(December 10, 2001). These deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until publication of the 

final results of the next administrative 

review. 

Notifications to Interested Parties 

This notice also serves as a final 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 

to file a certificate regarding the 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

prior to liquidation of the relevant 

entries during this review period. 

Failure to comply with this requirement 

could result in the Secretary’s 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of doubled 

antidumping duties. 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to administrative 

protective orders (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the return or 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 

to govern business proprietary 

information in this segment of the 

proceeding. Timely written notification 

of the return/destruction of APO 

materials or conversion to judicial 

protective order is hereby requested. 

Failure to comply with the regulations 

and terms of an APO is a violation, 

which is subject to sanction. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

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

Dated: April 22, 2010.
