Fresh Garlic from the People’s
Republic of China: Final Results of the
Expedited Sunset Review of the
Antidumping Duty Order
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On February 1, 2006, the
Department of Commerce (‘‘the
Department’’) initiated a sunset review
of the antidumping duty order on fresh
garlic (‘‘garlic’’) from the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (‘‘the Act’’). On the basis of
a notice of intent to participate and an
adequate substantive response filed on
behalf of domestic interested parties and
inadequate response from respondent
interested parties, the Department
conducted an expedited (120-day)
sunset review. As a result of this sunset
review, the Department finds that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping.
The dumping margins are identified in
the Final Results of Review section of
this notice.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 8, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background:
On February 1, 2006, the Department
published the notice of initiation of the
second sunset review of the
antidumping duty order on garlic from
the PRC pursuant to section 751(c) of
the Act. See Initiation of Five-year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 71 FR 5243
(February 1, 2006). The Department
received the Notice of Intent to
Participate from the Fresh Garlic
Producers Association and its
individual members: Christopher Ranch
LLC; The Garlic Company; Valley
Garlic; and Vessey and Company, Inc.
(collectively ‘‘the domestic interested
parties’’), within the deadline specified
in section 351.218(d)(1)(i) of the
Department’s Regulations (‘‘Sunset
Regulations’’). The domestic interested
parties claimed interested party status

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 110 / Thursday, June 8, 2006 / Notices
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
under sections 771(9)(C) and (F) of the
Act, as domestic producers and
packagers of fresh garlic and a trade
association whose members produce
and process a domestic like product in
the United States. We received complete
substantive responses only from the
domestic interested parties within the
30-day deadline specified in section
351.218(d)(3)(i) of the Deparment’s
regulations. We received no responses
from the respondent interested parties.
As a result, pursuant to section
751(c)(5)(A) of the Act and section
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2) of the
Department’s regulations, the
Department conducted an expedited
(120-day) sunset review of this order.
Scope of the Order:
The products subject to the
antidumping duty order are all grades of
garlic, whole or separated into
constituent cloves, whether or not
peeled, fresh, chilled, frozen,
provisionally preserved, or packed in
water or other neutral substance, but not
prepared or preserved by the addition of
other ingredients or heat processing.
The differences between grades are
based on color, size, sheathing, and
level of decay.
The scope of this order does not
include the following: (a) garlic that has
been mechanically harvested and that is
primarily, but not exclusively, destined
for non–fresh use; or (b) garlic that has
been specially prepared and cultivated
prior to planting and then harvested and
otherwise prepared for use as seed.
The subject merchandise is used
principally as a food product and for
seasoning. The subject garlic is
currently classifiable under subheadings
0703.20.0010, 0703.20.0020,
0703.20.0090, 0710.80.7060,
0710.80.9750, 0711.90.6000, and
2005.90.9700 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 scope of this
order is dispositive. In order to be
excluded from the antidumping duty
order, garlic entered under the HTSUS
subheadings listed above that is (1)
mechanically harvested and primarily,
but not exclusively, destined for non–
fresh use or (2) specially prepared and
cultivated prior to planting and then
harvested and otherwise prepared for
use as seed must be accompanied by
declarations to Customs and Border
Protection to that effect.

Administration, to David M. Spooner,

Administration, dated June 1, 2006,

The issues discussed in the Decision
Memo include the likelihood of
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and the magnitude of the margins likely
to prevail if the order were to be
revoked. Parties can find a complete

memorandum which is on file in room
B–099 of the main Commerce Building.

antidumping duty order on garlic from
the PRC would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of dumping
at the following weighted–average
percentage margin:
