C. The Nature and Extent of Voluntary
Steps To Mitigate the Impact on the
Public
Next, I consider whether Liu has
raised specific facts showing that there
is a genuine and substantial issue of fact
that requires a hearing concerning the
nature and extent of voluntary steps to
mitigate the impact of his offense on the
public, including full cooperation with
any investigations (including the extent
of disclosure to appropriate authorities
of all wrongdoing) and any other actions
taken to substantially limit potential or
actual adverse effects on the public
health.
In the Notice of Opportunity for a
Hearing, ORA stated, ‘‘You took no
steps to mitigate the impact on the
public of your actions.’’ Liu has not
challenged this statement. As such, I
agree with ORA that the nature and
extent of Liu’s voluntary steps to
mitigate the impact to the public weighs
in favor of debarment.
D. The Impact of Changes in Ownership,
Management, or Operations
In the Notice of Opportunity for
Hearing, ORA determined that this
factor was not applicable for
consideration. Liu has not challenged
that determination.

E. Prior Convictions Under the FD&C
Act or Related Acts
In the Notice of Opportunity for
Hearing, ORA acknowledged that the
Agency was unaware of any prior
convictions involving matters within
the jurisdiction of FDA. The lack of
previous violations of the FD&C Act or
related statutes by Liu weighs against
debarment.
III. Findings and Order
The Director of the Office of Scientific
Integrity, under section 306(b)(3)(A) of
the FD&C Act and under authority
delegated to him, finds that Liu has
been convicted of a felony for conduct
relating to the importation of food into
the United States. Accordingly, FDA
may debar Liu from importing articles of
food or offering such articles for import
into the United States for a period of not
more than 5 years.
I have considered the arguments
raised by Liu regarding the relevant
factors listed in section 306(c)(3) of the
FD&C Act and have determined that Liu
has raised no genuine and substantial
issues of fact that require resolution at
an evidentiary hearing. I have
considered the factors in section
306(c)(3) of the FD&C Act. The nature
and seriousness of Liu’s offense, Liu’s
management participation in the
offense, and the lack of any voluntary
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
steps to mitigate the impact of the
offense weigh in favor of debarring.
Although Liu appears to have no prior
criminal convictions involving matters
within the jurisdiction of FDA, that
consideration does not counterbalance
to a sufficient degree the remaining
considerations to warrant decreasing the
period of debarment. Of particular note
is the nature and seriousness of the
offense, in light of the volume of honey
that was imported, the amount of duties
that were avoided, and the fact that false
statements were made with regard to
two shipments of honey. I agree with
ORA’s proposed period of debarment
and find that a debarment of 5 years is
appropriate.
As a result of the foregoing findings,
Liu is debarred for a period of 5 years
from importing articles of food or
offering such articles for import into the
United States, effective (see DATES).
Under section 301(cc) of the FD&C Act,
the importing or offering for import into
the United States of an article of food
by, with the assistance of, or at the
direction of Liu is a prohibited act.
Any application by Liu for
termination of debarment under section
306(d) of the FD&C Act should be
identified with Docket No. FDA–2011–
N–0169 and sent to the Division of
Dockets Management Branch (see
ADDRESSES). All such submissions are to
be filed in four copies. The public
availability of information in these
submissions is governed by 21 CFR
10.20(j). Publicly available submissions
may be seen in the Division of Dockets
Management Branch between 9 a.m. and
4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Persons
with access to the Internet may obtain
documents in the Docket at https://
www.regulations.gov.
