The petitions were submitted
pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act
of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341). Consequently,
the United States Department of
Commerce has initiated separate
investigations to determine whether
increased imports into the United States
of articles like or directly competitive
with those produced by each firm
contributed importantly to total or
partial separation of the firm’s workers,
or threat thereof, and to a decrease in
sales or production of each petitioning
firm. Any party having a substantial
interest in the proceedings may request
a public hearing on the matter. A
request for a hearing must be received

results of these reviews. See Notice of
Preliminary Results of Antidumping
Duty New Shipper Reviews: Honey from
the People’s Republic of China, 69 FR
69350 (November 29, 2004)
(‘‘Preliminary Results’’).
We invited parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results. We received case
briefs from the American Honey
Producers Association and the Sioux
Honey Association (collectively,
petitioners) and from Anhui Honghui,
Eurasia, and Jiangsu Kanghong on
December 29, 2004. We received
rebuttal briefs from the same parties on
January 7, 2005. Parties did not request
a public hearing.
Scope of the Order
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
under review is currently classifiable
under item 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
written description of the merchandise
under the order is dispositive.

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the briefs are
addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum for the Final Results in
the 2002/2003 New Shipper Reviews of
Honey from the People’s Republic of
China from Barbara E. Tillman, Acting
Deputy Assistant Secretary to Joseph A.
Spetrini, Acting Assistant Secretary,
dated February 17, 2005 (‘‘Issues and
Decision Memorandum’’), which is
hereby adopted by this notice. A list of
the issues raised, all of which are in the
Issues and Decision Memorandum, is
attached to this notice as Appendix I.
Parties can find a complete discussion
of all issues raised in the briefs and the
corresponding recommendations in this
public memorandum which is on file in
the Central Records Unit (‘‘CRU’’), room
B-099 of the Herbert H. Hoover
Building. In addition, a complete
version of the Issues and Decision
Memorandum can be accessed directly
on the Web at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn/
index.html. The paper copy and
electronic version of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum are identical in
content.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received from
the interested parties, we have made
changes to the margin calculations for
Anhui Honghui, Eurasia, Jiangsu
Kanghong, and Inner Mongolia Youth.
For the final results, we revised our
calculation of surrogate financial ratios
for factory overhead, selling, general
and administrative expenses (‘‘SG&A’’),
and profit, to use the more
contemporaneous 2003/2004 annual
report from the Mahabaleshwar Honey
Producers Cooperative (‘‘MHPC’’), and
applied these new ratios in our margin
calculations. See e.g., Issues and
Decision Memorandum at Comment 3.
We also revised our calculation of
constructed export price (‘‘CEP’’) profit
for Anhui Honghui, and Jiangsu
Kanghong to use the surrogate profit
ratio from MHPC’s financial statements
in accordance with the Department’s
practice. See e.g., Issues and Decision
Memorandum at Comment 5.
For Anhui Honghui and Eurasia, we
have revised the treatment of marine
insurance costs. See e.g., Issues and
Decision Memorandum at Comment 4.
Also for Anhui Honghui we are no
longer including marine insurance in
the calculation of net U.S. price for
certain sales on which those expenses
were not incurred. See Id.
Final Results of New Shipper Reviews
We determine that the following
antidumping margin percentages exist
during the period of December 1, 2002,
through November 30, 2003:

Assessment of Antidumping Duties
The Department shall determine, and
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping
duties on all appropriate entries.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we
calculated importer- or customerspecific ad valorem duty assessment
rates based on the ratio of the total
amount of the dumping margins
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of those same sales.
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to
liquidate without regard to antidumping
duties all entries of subject merchandise
during the POR for which the importeror customer-specific assessment rate is
zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50
percent). The Department will issue
appropriate assessment instructions
directly to CBP within 15 days of
publication of the final results of these
reviews.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Bonding will no longer be permitted
to fulfill security requirements for
shipments from Anhui Honghui,
Eurasia, Inner Mongolia Youth, and
Jiangsu Kanghong of honey from the
PRC entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption in the
United States on or after the publication
VerDate jul<14>2003

the order entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after
the publication date of these final
results for these new shipper reviews, as
provided for by section 751(a)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended: (1) The
cash deposit rates for Anhui Honghui
(i.e., for subject merchandise both
manufactured and exported by Anhui
Honghui only); Eurasia (i.e., for subject

(‘‘Chuzhou’’) and exported by Eurasia);
Inner Mongolia Youth (i.e., for subject
merchandise manufactured by
Qinhuangdao Municipal Dafeng
Industrial Co., Ltd. (‘‘QDI’’) and

changes to the rates applicable to any
other companies under this
antidumping duty order.
Notification to Interested Parties
The Department will disclose
calculations performed in connection
with these final results of review within
five days of the date of publication of
this notice in accordance with 19 CFR
351.224(b) of its regulations. This notice
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
E:\FR\FM\25FEN1.SGM
25FEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 37 / Friday, February 25, 2005 / Notices
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and subsequent assessment of

to parties subject to administrative
protective order (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with section 351.305(a)(3) of the
Department’s regulations. 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 the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
The final results of these new shipper
reviews and notice are in accordance
with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1)
of the Act.

established to act in place of national
courts to review expeditiously the final
determination to determine whether it
conforms with the antidumping or
countervailing duty law of the country
that made the determination.
Under Article 1904 of the Agreement,
which came into force on January 1,
1994, the Government of the United
States, the Government of Canada and
the Government of Mexico established
Rules of Procedure for Article 1904
Binational Panel Reviews (‘‘Rules’’).
These Rules were published in the
Federal Register on February 23, 1994
(59 FR 8686). The panel review in this
matter was requested and terminated
pursuant to these Rules.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 29, 2004, the Department published the preliminary
results of these reviews. See Notice of Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty New Shipper Reviews: Honey from the People's Republic
of China, 69 FR 69350 (November 29, 2004) (``Preliminary Results'').
We invited parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. We
received case briefs from the American Honey Producers Association and
the Sioux Honey Association (collectively, petitioners) and from Anhui
Honghui, Eurasia, and Jiangsu Kanghong on December 29, 2004. We
received rebuttal briefs from the same parties on January 7, 2005.
Parties did not request a public hearing.
Scope of the Order
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 under
review is currently classifiable under item 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

Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the briefs are addressed in the Issues and
Decision Memorandum for the Final Results in the 2002/2003 New Shipper
Reviews of Honey from the People's Republic of China from Barbara E.
Tillman, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary to Joseph A. Spetrini,
Acting Assistant Secretary, dated February 17, 2005 (``Issues and
Decision Memorandum''), which is hereby adopted by this notice. A list
of the issues raised, all of which are in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum, is attached to this notice as Appendix I. Parties can find
a complete discussion of all issues raised in the briefs and the
corresponding recommendations in this public memorandum which is on

H. Hoover Building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and
Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the Web at https://
ia.ita.doc.gov/frn/. The paper copy and electronic version of
the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on the comments received from the interested parties, we have
made changes to the margin calculations for Anhui Honghui, Eurasia,
Jiangsu Kanghong, and Inner Mongolia Youth. For the final results, we
revised our calculation of surrogate financial ratios for factory
overhead, selling, general and administrative expenses (``SG&A''), and
profit, to use the more contemporaneous 2003/2004 annual report from
the Mahabaleshwar Honey Producers Cooperative (``MHPC''), and applied
these new ratios in our margin calculations. See e.g., Issues and
Decision Memorandum at Comment 3.
We also revised our calculation of constructed export price
(``CEP'') profit for Anhui Honghui, and Jiangsu Kanghong to use the
surrogate profit ratio from MHPC's financial statements in accordance
with the Department's practice. See e.g., Issues and Decision
Memorandum at Comment 5.
For Anhui Honghui and Eurasia, we have revised the treatment of
marine insurance costs. See e.g., Issues and Decision Memorandum at
Comment 4. Also for Anhui Honghui we are no longer including marine
insurance in the calculation of net U.S. price for certain sales on
which those expenses were not incurred. See Id.
Final Results of New Shipper Reviews
We determine that the following antidumping margin percentages
exist during the period of December 1, 2002, through November 30, 2003:

Assessment of Antidumping Duties
The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated
importer- or customer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based
on the ratio of the total amount of the dumping margins calculated for
the examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales. In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to liquidate
without regard to antidumping duties all entries of subject merchandise
during the POR for which the importer- or customer-specific assessment
rate is zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent). The
Department will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to
CBP within 15 days of publication of the final results of these
reviews.
Cash Deposit Requirements
Bonding will no longer be permitted to fulfill security
requirements for shipments from Anhui Honghui, Eurasia, Inner Mongolia
Youth, and Jiangsu Kanghong of honey from the PRC entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption in the United States on or after the
publication of this notice in the Federal Register. The following cash
deposit rates shall be required for merchandise subject to the order
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the
publication date of these final results for these new shipper reviews,
as provided for by section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended: (1) The cash deposit rates for Anhui Honghui (i.e., for
subject merchandise both manufactured and exported by Anhui Honghui
only); Eurasia (i.e., for subject merchandise manufactured by Eurasia
or Chuzhou Huadi Foodstuffs Co., Ltd. (``Chuzhou'') and exported by
Eurasia); Inner Mongolia Youth (i.e., for subject merchandise
manufactured by Qinhuangdao Municipal Dafeng Industrial Co., Ltd.
(``QDI'') and exported by Inner Mongolia Youth); and Jiangsu Kanghong
(i.e., for subject merchandise both manufactured and exported by
Jiangsu Kanghong only) will be the rates indicated above; (2) the cash
deposit rate for PRC exporters who received a separate rate in a prior
segment of the proceeding will continue to be the rate assigned in that
segment of the proceeding; (3) the cash deposit rate for the PRC entity
and for subject merchandise exported by Anhui Honghui not manufactured
by Anhui Honghui; exported by Eurasia not manufactured by Eurasia or
Chuzhou; exported by Inner Mongolia Youth not manufactured by QDI; and
exported by Jiangsu Kanghong not manufactured by Jiangsu Kanghong, will
continue to be the PRC- wide rate (i.e., 183.80 percent); and (4) the
cash deposit rate for non-PRC exporters of subject merchandise from the
PRC will be the rate applicable to the PRC exporter that supplied that
non-PRC exporter. These deposit requirements shall remain in effect
until publication of the final results of the next administrative
review. There are no changes to the rates applicable to any other

Notification to Interested Parties
The Department will disclose calculations performed in connection
with these final results of review within five days of the date of
publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b) of its
regulations. This notice 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
[[Page 9273]]
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with section 351.305(a)(3) of the Department's
regulations. 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 the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
The final results of these new shipper reviews and notice are in
accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: February 17, 2005.
