Based on our analysis of comments received, the margin calculations for these final results do not differ from the preliminary results. The margin calculations for these final results are listed below in the ‘‘Final Results of Review’’ section. EFFECTIVE DATE: April 15, 2005. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Angela Strom for ACA, Nexco and Nutrin, Brian Sheba for HoneyMax and Seylinco, David Cordell for TransHoney and CAA, or Robert James, AD/CVD Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230, telephone (202) 482–2704, (202) 482– 0145, (202) 482–0408, (202) 482–0469 respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On December 27, 2004, the Department published the preliminary results of the 2002–2003 antidumping duty administrative review of honey from Argentina. See Honey from Argentina: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 69 FR 77195 (Preliminary Results). The review covers sales by seven exporters: ACA, CAA, HoneyMax, Nexco, Nutrin, Seylinco, and TransHoney, (collectively, the respondents), and the period December 1, 2002, through November 30, 2003. In the preliminary results, we invited parties to comment. CAA submitted a case brief January 26, 2005. Neither Petitioner nor any of the other respondents submitted direct comments, and no party submitted filed rebuttal comments. 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, PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 the Department’s written description of the merchandise under this order is dispositive. Analysis of Comments Received Comment 1: Company–specific Dumping Margins. In the Preliminary Results, the Department listed only the name of the requesting company, CAA. CAA argues the final results should include the names of both Mielar and CAA, as both CAA and Mielar were treated by the Department as a single entity for purposes of the review. CAA argues both CAA and Mielar filed combined questionnaire responses, were verified together, and sales and expense information for both companies was used in the dumping analysis conducted by the Department. CAA contends the preliminary results makes clear that the ‘‘Department determined that CAA, Mielar and El Chelibo (Chelibo) are affiliated....and that the Department should treat the three companies as a single entity for the purposes of this administrative review.’’ See CAA/ Mielar’s Case Brief at 2. CAA believes the Department should list both exporting company names, namely CAA and Mielar, in the company–specific rates and in liquidation and cash deposit instructions issued to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to ensure there is no error or misunderstanding. CAA cites a number of decisions including Stainless Steel Wire Rods From India: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, Intent To Revoke Order In Part, and Extension of Time for the Final Results of Review, 70 FR 1413, 1416 (January 7, 2005) (Stainless Steel Wire Rod from India), where the Department decided ‘‘to treat Isibars and its affiliates as a single entity and calculate a single dumping margin.’’ See CAA/Mielar’s Case Brief at 5 and 6 for other case citations. Department’s Position: We agree with CAA and Mielar because both our Preliminary Results and the memorandum entitled, ‘‘Relationship of Compania Apicola Argentina S.A., (CAA) El Chelibo S.A. (Chelibo), and Mielar, S.A. (Mielar) in the 2002–2003 Administrative Review of AD Order on Honey from Argentina’’ dated June 30, 2004, illustrate ‘‘that the companies should receive a single antidumping duty rate.’’ Accordingly, we will assign a single rate to the entity composed of CAA, Mielar and Chelibo. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on our analysis of comments received, we have made no changes in the margin calculation. However, we E:\FR\FM\15APN1.SGM 15APN1
