VerDate Nov<24>2008 12:52 Feb 02, 2009 Jkt 217001 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [C–475–819] Certain Pasta from Italy: Final Results of the Eleventh (2006) Countervailing Duty Administrative Review AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) has completed its administrative review of the countervailing duty order on certain pasta from Italy for the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006. We find that De Matteis Agroalimentare S.p.A. (‘‘De Matteis’’), Pastificio Lucio Garofalo S.p.A. (‘‘Garofalo’’), and F.lli De Cecco di Filippo Fara San Martino S.p.A. (‘‘De Cecco’’) received countervailable subsidies, and that Pastificio Felicetti SrL (‘‘Felicetti’’) did not receive any countervailable subsidies. The final net subsidy rates for the reviewed companies are listed below in the section entitled ‘‘Final Results of Review.’’ EFFECTIVE DATE: February 3, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew McAllister or Brandon Farlander, AD/CVD Operations, Office 1, Import Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–1174 and (202) 482–0182, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On August 6, 2008, the Department published in the Federal Register its preliminary results of the administrative review of the countervailing duty order on certain pasta from Italy for the period January 1, 2006, through December 31, 2006. See Certain Pasta from Italy: Preliminary Results of the 11th (2006) Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, 73 FR 45721 (Aug. 6, 2008) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’). Since the signing of the Preliminary Results, we sent a supplemental questionnaire to the Government of Italy (‘‘GOI’’) on July 31, 2008, and received the GOI response on August 13, 2008. We invited interested parties to comment on the preliminary results. A PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 case brief was received from Garofalo on September 5, 2008. No rebuttal briefs were received, and the Department did not conduct a hearing in this review because none was requested. Based on our analysis of the supplemental questionnaire response from the GOI, we have revised the net subsidy rates for De Matteis, Garofalo, and De Cecco. Therefore, the final results differ from the preliminary results. Period of Review The period of review (‘‘POR’’) for which we are measuring subsidies is January 1, 2006, through December 31, 2006. Scope of the Order Imports covered by the order are shipments of certain non–egg dry pasta in packages of five pounds four ounces or less, whether or not enriched or fortified or containing milk or other optional ingredients such as chopped vegetables, vegetable purees, milk, gluten, diastasis, vitamins, coloring and flavorings, and up to two percent egg white. The pasta covered by this scope is typically sold in the retail market, in fiberboard or cardboard cartons, or polyethylene or polypropylene bags of varying dimensions. Excluded from the scope of the order are refrigerated, frozen, or canned pastas, as well as all forms of egg pasta, with the exception of non–egg dry pasta containing up to two percent egg white. Also excluded are imports of organic pasta from Italy that are accompanied by the appropriate certificate issued by the Instituto Mediterraneo Di Certificazione, Bioagricoop S.r.l., QC&I International Services, Ecocert Italia, Consorzio per il Controllo dei Prodotti Biologici, Associazione Italiana per l’Agricoltura Biologica, or Codex S.r.l. In addition, based on publicly available information, the Department has determined that, as of August 4, 2004, imports of organic pasta from Italy that are accompanied by the appropriate certificate issued by Bioagricert S.r.l. are also excluded from this order. See Memorandum from Eric B. Greynolds to Melissa G. Skinner, dated August 4, 2004, which is on file in the Department’s Central Records Unit (‘‘CRU’’) in Room 1117 of the main Department building. In addition, based on publicly available information, the Department has determined that, as of March 13, 2003, imports of organic pasta from Italy that are accompanied by the appropriate certificate issued by Instituto per la Certificazione Etica e Ambientale (ICEA) are also excluded from this order.
