SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) has conducted a
changed circumstances review on
certain orange juice (OJ) from Brazil to
determine whether the antidumping
duty order should be revoked with
respect to imports of ultra low pulp
orange juice (ULPOJ). On October 10,
2008, the Department published the
preliminary results of its changed
circumstances review, in which we
found that there was sufficient interest
on the part of the domestic industry to
justify maintaining the order with
respect to ULPOJ. See Certain Orange
Juice from Brazil: Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Changed
Circumstances Review and Intent Not to
Revoke, In Part, 73 FR 60241 (Oct. 10,
2008) (Preliminary Results).
We invited parties to comment on our
preliminary results of review. Based on
our analysis of the comments received,
we have not changed the final results
from those presented in the Preliminary
Results.

Certain Orange Juice From Brazil, 72 FR
12183 (Mar. 9, 2006).
On April 29, 2008, at the request of
Tropicana Products, Inc. (Tropicana), a
domestic producer of orange juice, the
Department initiated a changed
circumstances review of the order to
consider partially revoking the order
with respect to ULPOJ, pursuant to
section 751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.216(b) and 351.222(g)(1)(i). See
Certain Orange Juice From Brazil:
Initiation of Antidumping Duty Changed
Circumstances Review, 73 FR 23182
(Apr. 29, 2008). On October 10, 2008,
the Department published the
preliminary results of this changed
circumstances review. See Preliminary
Results, 73 FR 60241. In the Preliminary
Results, we found that there was
sufficient interest on the part of the
domestic OJ industry to justify
maintaining the order with respect to
ULPOJ.
We invited parties to comment on our
preliminary results of review. In
November 2008, we received case and
rebuttal briefs from Tropicana and the
petitioners in this case (i.e., Florida
Citrus Mutual, A. Duda & Sons, Inc.
(doing business as Citrus Belle), and
Citrus World, Inc.).1 Based on our
analysis of the comments received, we
have not changed the final results from
those presented in the Preliminary
Results.
Scope of the Order
The scope of this order includes
certain orange juice for transport and/or
further manufacturing, produced in two
different forms: (1) Frozen orange juice
in a highly concentrated form,
sometimes referred to as frozen
concentrated orange juice for
manufacture (FCOJM); and (2)
pasteurized single-strength orange juice
which has not been concentrated,
referred to as not-from-concentrate
(NFC). At the time of the filing of the
petition, there was an existing
antidumping duty order on frozen
concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) from
Brazil. See Antidumping Duty Order;
Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice from
Brazil, 52 FR 16426 (May 5, 1987).
Therefore, the scope of this order with
regard to FCOJM covers only FCOJM
produced and/or exported by those
companies which were excluded or
revoked from the pre-existing
antidumping order on FCOJ from Brazil
as of December 27, 2004. Those
1 These
entities are opposing revocation of the
order in part in this changed circumstances review;
however, another petitioner, Southern Gardens
Citrus Processing Corporation, has not joined these
entities in opposing Tropicana’s request.

companies are Cargill Citrus Limitada;
Coinbra-Frutesp S.A.; Sucocitrico
Cutrale, S.A.; Fischer S.A. Comercio,
Industria and Agricutura; and
Montecitrus Trading S.A.
Excluded from the scope of the order
are reconstituted orange juice and
frozen concentrated orange juice for
retail (FCOJR). Reconstituted orange
juice is produced through further
manufacture of FCOJM, by adding
water, oils and essences to the orange
juice concentrate. FCOJR is
concentrated orange juice, typically at
42 Brix, in a frozen state, packed in
retail-sized containers ready for sale to
consumers. FCOJR, a finished consumer
product, is produced through further
manufacture of FCOJM, a bulk
manufacturer’s product.
The subject merchandise is currently
classifiable under subheadings
2009.11.00, 2009.12.25, 2009.12.45, and
2009.19.00 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
These HTSUS subheadings are provided
for convenience and for customs
purposes only and are not dispositive.
Rather, the written description of the
scope of the order is dispositive.
Scope of Changed Circumstances
Review
The product subject to this changed
circumstances review is ULPOJ, which
is concentrated orange juice with a pulp
content of two percent or less by
weight/volume on an 11.8 degree brix
equivalent base. This product is a form
of FCOJM and is commonly used in the
manufacture of soft drink concentrates.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case and
rebuttal briefs by parties to this changed
circumstances review, and to which we
have responded, are listed in the
Appendix to this notice and addressed
in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum (Decision Memo), which
is adopted by this notice. Parties can
find a complete discussion of all issues
raised in this review and the
corresponding recommendations in this
public memorandum, which is on file in
the Central Records Unit, room 1117, of
the main Department Building.
In addition, a complete version of the
Decision Memo can be accessed directly
on the Web at https://ia.ita.doc.gov/
frn/. The paper copy and electronic
version of the Decision Memo are
identical in content.
Final Results of Changed
Circumstances Review
More than 15 percent of the domestic
industry has expressed opposition to
excluding ULPOJ from the antidumping
PO 00000

duty order on OJ from Brazil. As a
result, we determine that producers
accounting for substantially all of the
production of the domestic like product
have not expressed a lack of interest in
maintaining the order with respect to
ULPOJ. Thus, we find that changed
circumstances sufficient to warrant
revocation in part of the antidumping
duty order on OJ from Brazil do not
exist. The current requirements for the
cash deposit of estimated antidumping
duties on the subject merchandise will
remain in effect until further notice.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (APOs) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.306. Timely written
notification of the return/destruction of
APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested.
Failure to comply with the regulations
and terms of an APO is a sanctionable
violation.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(b)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.216.
