Background

    The notice announcing the antidumping duty order on fresh garlic

warehouse, for consumption; (2) the volume of its first shipment and 
the volume of subsequent shipments; and (3) the date of its first sale 
to an unaffiliated customer in the United States.
    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR

of fresh garlic from the PRC grown and exported by Dongbao.
    The POR is November 1, 2004, through April 30, 2005. See 19 CFR

cash deposit for each entry of fresh garlic both grown and exported by 
Dongbao until the completion of the new shipper review, pursuant to
