Scope of the Order
The products covered by this order are
certain processed olives, usually referred to
as ‘‘ripe olives.’’ The subject merchandise
includes all colors of olives; all shapes and
sizes of olives, whether pitted or not pitted,
and whether whole, sliced, chopped, minced,
wedged, broken, or otherwise reduced in
size; all types of packaging, whether for
consumer (retail) or institutional (food
service) sale, and whether canned or
packaged in glass, metal, plastic,
multilayered airtight containers (including
pouches), or otherwise; and all manners of
preparation and preservation, whether low
acid or acidified, stuffed or not stuffed, with
or without flavoring and/or saline solution,
and including in ambient, refrigerated, or
frozen conditions.
Included are all ripe olives grown,
processed in whole or in part, or packaged
in Spain. Subject merchandise includes ripe
olives that have been further processed in
Spain or a third country, including but not
limited to curing, fermenting, rinsing,
oxidizing, pitting, slicing, chopping,
segmenting, wedging, stuffing, packaging, or
heat treating, or any other processing that
would not otherwise remove the
merchandise from the scope of the order if
performed in Spain.
Subject merchandise includes ripe olives
that otherwise meet the definition above that
are packaged together with non-subject
products, where the smallest individual
packaging unit (e.g., can, pouch, jar, etc.) of
any such product—regardless of whether the
smallest unit of packaging is included in a
larger packaging unit (e.g., display case,
etc.)—contains a majority (i.e., more than 50
percent) of ripe olives by net drained weight.
The scope does not include the non-subject
components of such product.
Excluded from the scope are: (1) Specialty
olives 10 (including ‘‘Spanish-style,’’
‘‘Sicilian-style,’’ and other similar olives) that
have been processed by fermentation only, or
by being cured in an alkaline solution for not
longer than 12 hours and subsequently
fermented; and (2) provisionally prepared
olives unsuitable for immediate consumption
(currently classifiable in subheading 0711.20
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS)).
The merchandise subject to this order is
currently classifiable under subheadings
2005.70.0230, 2005.70.0260, 2005.70.0430,
2005.70.0460, 2005.70.5030, 2005.70.5060,
2005.70.6020, 2005.70.6030, 2005.70.6050,
2005.70.6060, 2005.70.6070, 2005.70.7000,
2005.70.7510, 2005.70.7515, 2005.70.7520,
and 2005.70.7525 HTSUS. Subject
9 The cash deposit rate is equal to the calculated
estimated weighted-average dumping margin
adjusted for the appropriate subsidy offset(s).
10 Some of the major types of specialty olives and
their curing methods are:
• ‘‘Spanish-style’’ green olives: Spanish-style
green olives have a mildly salty, slightly bitter taste,
and are usually pitted and stuffed. This style of
olive is primarily produced in Spain and can be
made from various olive varieties. Most are stuffed
with pimento; other popular stuffings are jalapeno,
garlic, and cheese. The raw olives that are used to
produce Spanish-style green olives are picked while
they are unripe, after which they are submerged in
an alkaline solution for typically less than a day to
partially remove their bitterness, rinsed, and
fermented in a strong salt brine, giving them their
characteristic flavor.
• ‘‘Sicilian-style’’ green olives: Sicilian-style
olives are large, firm green olives with a natural
bitter and savory flavor. This style of olive is
produced in small quantities in the United States
using a Sevillano variety of olive and harvested
green with a firm texture. Sicilian-style olives are
processed using a brine-cured method, and undergo
a full fermentation in a salt and lactic acid brine
Notification to Interested Parties
