SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background. On January 13, 2006, the
Department of Commerce determined
that imports of certain orange juice from
Brazil were being sold in the United
States at less than fair value (LTFV)
within the meaning of section 731 of the
Act (19 U.S.C. 1673) (71 FR 2183,
January 13, 2006); and on March 3, 2006
PO 00000
Frm 00072
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the Commission determined, pursuant
to section 735(b)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1673d(b)(1)), that an industry in the
United States was materially injured by
reason of imports of such LTFV
merchandise. Accordingly, Commerce
ordered that antidumping duties be
imposed on such imports (71 FR 12183,
March 9, 2006).
On June 13, 2007, the Commission
received a request to review its
affirmative determination in
investigation No. 731–TA–1089 (Final)
pursuant to section 751(b) of the Act (19
U.S.C. 1675(b)). The request was filed
by Tropicana Products, Inc. (Tropicana).
Tropicana alleges that there is good
cause for the Commission to conduct a
review despite the statutory prohibition
against conducting a review within two
years of the publication of its injury
determination (19 U.S.C. 1675(b)(4)).
Tropicana alleges that shortfalls in the
Florida juice orange crop and depleted
inventories; significant price increases
and a greatly constricted supply; and
disruption of the alternative sources of
Brazilian supply following imposition
of the antidumping duty order have
resulted in the domestic orange juice
producers being harmed by the order.
Written comments requested.
Pursuant to section 207.45(b) of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure, the Commission requests
comments concerning whether the
alleged changed circumstances, brought
about by shortfalls in the Florida juice
orange crop and depleted inventories;
significant price increases and a greatly
constricted supply; and disruption of
the alternative sources of Brazilian
supply following imposition of the
antidumping duty order are sufficient to
warrant institution of a review
investigation.
Written submissions. Comments must
be filed with the Secretary to the
Commission no later than 60 days after
the date of publication of this notice in
the Federal Register. All written
submissions must conform with the
provisions of section 201.8 of the
Commission’s rules; any submissions
that contain business proprietary
information must also conform with the
requirements of sections 201.6, 207.3,
and 207.7 of the Commission’s rules.
The Commission’s rules do not
authorize filing of submissions with the
Secretary by facsimile or electronic
means, except to the extent permitted by
section 201.8 of the Commission’s rules,
as amended, 67 FR 68036 (November 8,
2002).
Authority: This notice is published
pursuant to section 207.45 of the
Commission’s rules.
