SUMMARY: On August 6, 2004, the

States below normal value during the

On August 6, 2004, the Department

Review: Individually Quick Frozen Red
Raspberries From Chile, 69 FR 47869

Berry Association and each of its
individual members, Curt Maberry
Farm, Enfield Farms, Inc., Maberry
Packing, and Rader Farms, Inc.
(collectively, ‘‘petitioners’’), and
Fruticola Olmue, S.A. (‘‘Olmue’’).
On September 17, 2004, we received
rebuttal briefs from the petitioners,
Olmue, H.J. Uren & Sons and Uren Chile
S.A. (‘‘Uren’’), and Santiago Comercio
Exterior Exportaciones Limitada
(‘‘SANCO’’).
On October 28, 2004, we rejected
Olmue’s rebuttal brief because it
contained new factual information.
Olmue filed a revised rebuttal brief on
November 1, 2004, redacting the new
factual information submitted in the
original rebuttal brief.

are imports of individually quick frozen
(‘‘IQF’’) whole or broken red raspberries
from Chile, with or without the addition
of sugar or syrup, regardless of variety,
grade, size or horticulture method (e.g.,
organic or not), the size of the container
in which packed, or the method of
packing. The scope of the order
excludes fresh red raspberries and block
frozen red raspberries (i.e., puree,
straight pack, juice stock, and juice
concentrate).
The merchandise subject to this order
is currently classifiable under
0811.20.2020 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the HTSUS
subheading is provided for convenience
and customs purposes, the written
description of the merchandise under
the order is dispositive.
Period of Review
The period of review (‘‘POR’’) is
December 31, 2001, through June 30,
2003.
Analysis of Comments Received
