On this basis, I concur with BIS and recommend that the Under Secretary enter an Order denying Suburban Guns (Pty) Ltd.’s export privileges for a period of five (5) years and requiring Suburban Guns (Pty) Ltd. to pay a civil penalty in the amount of fortyfour thousand dollars ($44,000). These penalties are consistent with penalties imposed in recent cases under the Regulations involving violations of denial orders. In the Matters of Yaudat Mustafa Talyi a.k.a. Yaudat Mustafa a.k.a. Joseph Talyi, 41 Chamale Cove East, Slidell, Louisiana, 70460, Respondents; Decision and Order, 69 FR 77177 (Dec. 27, 2004) (affirming the ALJ’s recommendations that a twenty year denial and maximum civil penalty of $11,000 per violation was appropriate where an individual exported oil field parts to Libya without authorization, in violation of the terms and conditions of a BIS order temporarily denying his export privileges and with knowledge that a violation would occur; and solicited a violation of the Regulations by ordering oil field parts from an equipment manufacturer located in the United States without authorization and with knowledge that a violation would occur). A five (5) year denial of Suburban Guns (Pty) Ltd.’s export privileges is warranted because Suburban Guns (Pty) Ltd.’s violations, like those of the defendants in the above-cited case, were deliberate acts in violation of an order denying export privileges. Recommended Order—[Redacted] Accordingly, I am referring this Recommended Decision and Order to the Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security for review and final action for the agency, without further notice to the respondent, as provided in section 766.7 of the Regulations. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of this Recommended Decision and Order, the Under Secretary will issue a written order affirming, modifying or vacating the Recommended Decision and Order.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 1, 2005, the Department initiated and the ITC instituted a 
sunset review of the antidumping duty order on glycine from the PRC 
pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''). See Initiation of Five-year (``Sunset'') Reviews, 70 FR 31423 
(June 1, 2005), and ITC Investigation No. 731-TA-718 (Second Review), 
Glycine from China, 70 FR 31534 (June 1, 2005). As a result of its 
review, the Department found that revocation of the antidumping duty 
order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and 
notified the ITC of the magnitude of the margins likely to prevail were 
the order to be revoked. See Glycine from the People's Republic of 
China; Final Results of the Expedited Sunset Review of the Antidumping 
Duty Order, 70 FR 58185 (October 5, 2005). On October 31, 2005, the ITC 
determined, pursuant to sections 751(c) and 752 of the Act, that 
revocation of the antidumping duty order on glycine from the PRC would 
likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an 
industry in the United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.

Scope of the Order

    The product covered by the order is glycine, which is a free-
flowing crystalline material, like salt or sugar. Glycine is produced 
at varying levels of purity and is used as a sweetener/taste enhancer, 
a buffering agent, reabsorbable amino acid, chemical intermediate, and 
a metal complexing agent. This order covers glycine of all purity 
levels. Glycine is currently classified under subheading 2922.49.4020 
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS''). In 
a separate scope ruling, the Department determined that D(-) 
Phenylglycine Ethyl Dane Salt is outside the scope of the order. See 
Notice of Scope Rulings and Anticircumvention Inquiries, 62 FR 62288 
(November 21, 1997). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for 
convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the 
merchandise under the order is dispositive.

Determination

    As a result of the determinations by the Department and the ITC 
that revocation of the antidumping duty order would likely lead to 
continuation or recurrence of dumping and material injury to an 
industry in the United States, pursuant to section 751(d)(2) of the 
Act, the Department hereby orders the continuation of the antidumping 
duty order on glycine from the PRC. U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
will continue to collect antidumping duty cash deposits at the rates in 
effect at the time of entry for all imports of subject merchandise.
    The effective date of continuation of this order will be the date 
of publication in the Federal Register of this Notice of Continuation. 
Pursuant to sections 751(c)(2) and 751(c)(6) of the Act, the Department 
intends to initiate the next five-year review of this order not later 
than October 2010.
    This five-year (sunset) review and notice are in accordance with 
section 751(c) of the Act and published pursuant to section 777(i)(1) 
of the Act.
