We published the Preliminary Results for these new shipper reviews on April 1, 2009. In the Preliminary Results, the Department stated that interested parties were to submit case briefs within 30 days of publication of the Preliminary Results and rebuttal briefs within five days after the due date for filing case briefs. See Preliminary Results at 14778. No interested party submitted a case or rebuttal brief. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Nov<24>2008 21:58 Jun 17, 2009 Jkt 217001 Period of Review The period of review (POR) is February 1, 2008, through July 31, 2008. Scope of the Order The products covered by this order are certain preserved mushrooms, whether imported whole, sliced, diced, or as stems and pieces. The certain preserved mushrooms covered under this order are the species Agaricus bisporus and Agaricus bitorquis. ‘‘Certain Preserved Mushrooms’’ refers to mushrooms that have been prepared or preserved by cleaning, blanching, and sometimes slicing or cutting. These mushrooms are then packed and heated in containers including, but not limited to, cans or glass jars in a suitable liquid medium, including, but not limited to, water, brine, butter or butter sauce. Certain preserved mushrooms may be imported whole, sliced, diced, or as stems and pieces. Included within the scope of this order are ‘‘brined’’ mushrooms, which are presalted and packed in a heavy salt solution to provisionally preserve them for further processing.1 Excluded from the scope of this order are the following: (1) All other species of mushroom, including straw mushrooms; (2) all fresh and chilled mushrooms, including ‘‘refrigerated’’ or ‘‘quick blanched mushrooms’’ (3) dried mushrooms; (4) frozen mushrooms; and (5) ‘‘marinated,’’ ‘‘acidified,’’ or ‘‘pickled’’ mushrooms, which are prepared or preserved by means of vinegar or acetic acid, but may contain oil or other additives. The merchandise subject to this order is classifiable under subheadings: 2003.10.0127, 2003.10.0131, 2003.10.0137, 2003.10.0143, 2003.10.0147, 2003.10.0153 and 0711.51.0000 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 the order is dispositive. Separate Rates In proceedings involving non–market economy (NME) countries, the Department begins with a rebuttable 1 On June 19, 2000, the Department affirmed that ‘‘marinated,’’ ‘‘acidified,’’ or ‘‘pickled’’ mushrooms containing less than 0.5 percent acetic acid are within the scope of the antidumping duty order. See Recommendation Memorandum—Final Ruling of Request by Tak Fat, et al. for Exclusion of Certain Marinated, Acidified Mushrooms from the Scope of the Antidumping Duty Order on Certain Preserved Mushrooms from the People’s Republic of China,‘‘ dated June 19, 2000. On February 9, 2005, this decision was upheld by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. See Tak Fat v. United States, 396 F.3d 1378 (Fed. Cir. 2005). PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 presumption that all companies within the country are subject to government control and, thus, should be assigned a single antidumping duty deposit rate. It is the Department’s policy to assign all exporters of merchandise subject to review in an NME country this single rate unless an exporter can demonstrate that it is sufficiently independent so as to be entitled to a separate rate. In the Preliminary Results, the Department announced its determination that Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman had demonstrated their eligibility for separate rate status. We received no comments from interested parties regarding this determination. In these final results of review, we continue to find the evidence placed on the record by Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman demonstrates an absence of government control, both in law and in fact, with respect to their exports of the merchandise under review. Thus, we have determined that Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman are eligible to receive separate rates. Changes Since the Preliminary Results We made no changes to the Preliminary Results. Final Results of Review The Department has determined that the following margins exist for the period February 1, 2008, through July 31, 2008: Exporter/Manufacturer Zhangzhou Gangchang Canned Foods Co., Ltd., Fujian ........... Zhejiang Iceman Group Co., Ltd. Weighted– Average Margin (Percentage) 0.00 0.00 Assessment Rates Pursuant to these final results, the Department determined, and CBP shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. The Department intends to issue assessment instructions for Zhangzhou Gangchang and Zhejiang Iceman to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of new shipper reviews. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer– specific (or customer) ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount of the dumping margins calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value of those same sales. We will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by these reviews if any importer–specific (or customer) assessment rate calculated in E:\FR\FM\18JNN1.SGM 18JNN1
