DATES: Effective December 26, 2012.
SUMMARY: On August 1, 2012, the
Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) published in the
Federal Register the notice of initiation
of the sunset review of the suspended
antidumping duty investigation on
lemon juice from Mexico. On September

CFR 351.218(e)(2). As a result of its

Department determined to conduct a
full sunset review.2
Scope of the Suspended Investigation
The merchandise covered by the
