Background
On August 26, 2011, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published
a notice of initiation of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain pasta
from Turkey, covering the period July 1,
2010, through June 30, 2011. See
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in
Part, 76 FR 53404 (August 26, 2011).
The preliminary results of review are
currently due April 1, 2012.
Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires
that the Department make a preliminary
determination within 245 days after the
last day of the anniversary month of an
order for which a review is requested.
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act further
states that, if it is not practicable to
complete the review within the time
period specified, the administering
authority may extend the 245-day
period to issue its preliminary results to
up to 365 days.
We determine that completion of the
preliminary results of this review within
the 245-day period is not practicable as
the Department needs additional time to
analyze complex issues regarding
affiliation and knowledge of U.S.
destination. Given the complexity of
these issues, and in accordance with
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are
extending the time period for issuing
the preliminary results of this review by

120 days. Therefore, the preliminary
results are now due no later than July
30, 2012. The final results continue to
be due 120 days after publication of the
preliminary results.
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act.

Fresh Garlic From the People’s
Republic of China: Partial Final Results
and Partial Final Rescission of the
2009–2010 Administrative Review
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On October 20, 2011, the
Department of Commerce (Department)
published the partial preliminary results
of the administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on fresh garlic
from the People’s Republic of China
(PRC) covering the period of review
(POR) of November 1, 2009, through
October 31, 2010. The Department is
issuing these partial final results for the
PRC-wide entity only.
Based on the analysis of the record
and the comments received, the
Department finds that seven companies
subject to this review, including
mandatory respondents, Shandong
Longtai Fruits and Vegetables Co., Ltd.
(Longtai) and Weifang Hongqiao
International Logistic Co., Ltd.
(Hongqiao), did not demonstrate their
eligibility for separate rate status and,
thus, will be considered part of the PRCwide entity for purposes of these final
results. These companies are listed in
Appendix I. The Department is also
rescinding the review with respect to 14
exporters who had ‘‘no shipments’’
during the POR. A list of these
companies is found in Appendix II.
DATES: Effective Date: February 27,
2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 20, 2011, the Department
published in the Federal Register the
partial preliminary results of the 2009–
2010 administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on fresh garlic
from the PRC. See Fresh Garlic From the

Preliminary Results, Rescission of, and
Intent To Rescind, in Part, the 2009–
2010 Administrative Review, 76 FR
65172 (October 20, 2011) (First Partial
Preliminary Results).1 On December 7,
2011, the Department issued its second
partial preliminary results.2 Since the
First Partial Preliminary Results, the
following events have occurred.
On November 21, 2011, the
Department extended the deadline for
submission of case briefs to December 1,
2011 and rebuttal briefs to December 6,
2011. On November 30, 2011, the Fresh
Garlic Producers Association (FGPA)
and its individual members 3
(collectively, Petitioners) submitted a
document called ‘‘Petitioners’
Comments on Certain No Shipment
Claims and Department’s Partial
Preliminary Results’’ (No Shipment
Comments). On December 9, 2011, the
Department rejected Petitioners’ No
Shipment Comments as untimely new
factual information. See the
Department’s December 9, 2011 letter to
Petitioners. On December 1, 2011,
Petitioners, and Hongqiao, Sunny
Import & Export Co. Ltd., and Shenzhen
Greening Trading Co., Ltd. (collectively,
Respondents) submitted case briefs. On
December 6, 2011, Petitioners submitted
their rebuttal brief.
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the 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
1 The Department initiated this review for 113
producers/exporters. Based on timely withdrawal of
requests for review, the Department rescinded the
review with respect to 84 producers/exporters in
the First Partial Preliminary Results. These final
results and final rescission cover 21 companies.
2 The second partial preliminary results covered
the remaining companies subject to the review. See
Fresh Garlic From the People’s Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of the 2009–2010 Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR 76375
(December 7, 2011). The final results for these
companies are currently due no later than April 5,
2012.
