SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
In accordance with sections 735(d)
and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), on November 28,
2022, Commerce published its
affirmative final determination in the
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation
of preserved mushrooms from France.1

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 12 / Thursday, January 19, 2023 / Notices
On January 12, 2023, the ITC notified
Commerce of its final determination,
pursuant to section 735(d) of the Act,
that an industry in the United States is
materially injured within the meaning
of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by
reason of LTFV imports of preserved
mushrooms from France.2
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
preserved mushrooms from France. For
a complete description of the scope of
the order, see the appendix to this
notice.

Antidumping Duty Order
On January 12, 2023, in accordance
with sections 735(b)(1)(A)(i) and 735(d)
of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce
of its final determination that an
industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports
of preserved mushrooms from France.
Therefore, Commerce is issuing this
antidumping duty order in accordance
with sections 735(c)(2) and 736 of the
Act. Because the ITC determined that
imports of preserved mushrooms from
France are materially injuring a U.S.
industry, unliquidated entries of such
merchandise from France, entered or
withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption, are subject to the
assessment of antidumping duties.
Therefore, in accordance with section
736(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce will
direct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) to assess, upon further
instruction by Commerce, antidumping
duties equal to the amount by which the
normal value of the merchandise
exceeds the export price (or constructed
export price) of the merchandise, for all
relevant entries of preserved
mushrooms from France. Antidumping
duties will be assessed on unliquidated
entries of preserved mushrooms from
France, entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption, on or after
September 13, 2022, the date of
publication of the Preliminary
Determination, but will not include
entries occurring after the expiration of
the provisional measures period and
before publication of the ITC’s final
injury determination, as further
described below.3

Continuation of Suspension of
Liquidation and Cash Deposits
In accordance with section 736 of the
Act, Commerce will instruct CBP to
continue to suspend liquidation on all
relevant entries of preserved
mushrooms from France which are
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the date of
publication of the ITC’s notice of final
determination in the Federal Register.
These instructions suspending
liquidation will remain in effect until
further notice.
Commerce will also instruct CBP to
require cash deposits equal to the
amounts indicated below. Accordingly,
effective on the date of publication in
the Federal Register of the notice of the
ITC’s final affirmative injury
determination, CBP will require, at the
same time as importers would normally
deposit estimated duties on this subject
merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the
cash deposit rates listed in the table
below. The all-others rate applies to all
producers or exporters not specifically
listed, as appropriate.

instruct CBP to terminate the
suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate, without regard to
antidumping duties, unliquidated
entries of preserved mushrooms from
France, entered or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption after
January 10, 2023, the date on which
provisional measures expired, through
the day preceding the date of
publication of the ITC’s final affirmative
injury determination in the Federal
Register. Suspension of liquidation and
the collection of cash deposits will
resume on the date of publication of the
ITC’s final affirmative injury
determination in the Federal Register.

Certain Preserved Mushrooms From France: Antidumping Duty Order
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: Based on affirmative final determinations by the U.S.
Department of Commerce (Commerce) and the U.S. International Trade
Commission (ITC), Commerce is issuing an antidumping duty order on
certain preserved mushrooms (preserved mushrooms) from France.
DATES: Applicable January 19, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher Williams, AD/CVD
Operations, Office I, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5166.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In accordance with sections 735(d) and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), on November 28, 2022, Commerce published
its affirmative final determination in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation of preserved mushrooms from France.\1\
[[Page 3383]]
On January 12, 2023, the ITC notified Commerce of its final
determination, pursuant to section 735(d) of the Act, that an industry
in the United States is materially injured within the meaning of
section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by reason of LTFV imports of
preserved mushrooms from France.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Certain Preserved Mushrooms from France: Final
Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, 87 FR
72963 (November 28, 2022) (Final Determination).
\2\ See ITC's Letter, Investigation No. 731-TA-1587 (Final),
dated January 12, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is preserved mushrooms from
France. For a complete description of the scope of the order, see the
appendix to this notice.
Antidumping Duty Order
On January 12, 2023, in accordance with sections 735(b)(1)(A)(i)
and 735(d) of the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of its final
determination that an industry in the United States is materially
injured by reason of imports of preserved mushrooms from France.
Therefore, Commerce is issuing this antidumping duty order in
accordance with sections 735(c)(2) and 736 of the Act. Because the ITC
determined that imports of preserved mushrooms from France are
materially injuring a U.S. industry, unliquidated entries of such
merchandise from France, entered or withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption, are subject to the assessment of antidumping duties.
Therefore, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act,
Commerce will direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess, upon further instruction by Commerce, antidumping duties equal
to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the
export price (or constructed export price) of the merchandise, for all
relevant entries of preserved mushrooms from France. Antidumping duties
will be assessed on unliquidated entries of preserved mushrooms from
France, entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or
after September 13, 2022, the date of publication of the Preliminary
Determination, but will not include entries occurring after the
expiration of the provisional measures period and before publication of
the ITC's final injury determination, as further described below.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Certain Preserved Mushrooms from France: Preliminary
Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value, 87 FR
55997 (September 13, 2022) (Preliminary Determination).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation of Suspension of Liquidation and Cash Deposits
In accordance with section 736 of the Act, Commerce will instruct
CBP to continue to suspend liquidation on all relevant entries of
preserved mushrooms from France which are entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the
ITC's notice of final determination in the Federal Register. These
instructions suspending liquidation will remain in effect until further
notice.
Commerce will also instruct CBP to require cash deposits equal to
the amounts indicated below. Accordingly, effective on the date of
publication in the Federal Register of the notice of the ITC's final
affirmative injury determination, CBP will require, at the same time as
importers would normally deposit estimated duties on this subject
merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the cash deposit rates listed in
the table below. The all-others rate applies to all producers or
exporters not specifically listed, as appropriate.
Estimated Weighted-Average Dumping Margins
The estimated weighted-average dumping margins for this antidumping
order are as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weighted-
average
Exporter/producer dumping margin
(percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bonduelle Europe Long Life.............................. * 360.88
France Champignon....................................... * 360.88
All-Others.............................................. 224.68
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Rate based on adverse facts available.
Provisional Measures
Section 733(d) of the Act states that suspension of liquidation
pursuant to an affirmative preliminary determination may not remain in
effect for more than four months, except where exporters representing a
significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise request
that Commerce extend the four-month period to no more than six months.
Commerce's Preliminary Determination was published on September 13,
2022.\4\ Commerce's Final Determination was not extended and was
published on November 28, 2022.\5\ As such, the four-month period
beginning on the date of publication of the Preliminary Determination
ended on January 10, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Id.
\5\ See Final Determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Therefore, in accordance with section 733(d) of the Act, Commerce
will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate, without regard to antidumping duties, unliquidated entries
of preserved mushrooms from France, entered or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption after January 10, 2023, the date on which
provisional measures expired, through the day preceding the date of
publication of the ITC's final affirmative injury determination in the
Federal Register. Suspension of liquidation and the collection of cash
deposits will resume on the date of publication of the ITC's final
affirmative injury determination in the Federal Register.
Establishment of the Annual Inquiry Service Lists
On September 20, 2021, Commerce published the final rule titled
``Regulations to Improve Administration and Enforcement of Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Laws'' in the Federal Register.\6\ On September
27, 2021, Commerce also published the notice titled ``Scope Ruling
Application; Annual Inquiry Service List; and Informational Sessions''
in the Federal Register.\7\ The Final Rule and Procedural Guidance
provide that Commerce will maintain an annual inquiry service list for
each order or suspended investigation, and any interested party
submitting a scope ruling application or request for circumvention
inquiry shall serve a copy of the application or request on the persons
on the annual inquiry service list for that order, as well as any
companion order covering the same merchandise from the same country of

In accordance with the Procedural Guidance, for orders published in
the Federal Register after November 4, 2021, Commerce will create an
annual inquiry service list segment in Commerce's online e-filing and
document management system, Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Electronic Service System (ACCESS), available at https://access.trade.gov, within five business days of publication of the
notice of the order. Each annual inquiry service list will be saved in
ACCESS, under each case number, and
[[Page 3384]]
under a specific segment type called ``AISL-Annual Inquiry Service
List.'' \9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ This segment will be combined with the ACCESS Segment
Specific Information (SSI) field, which will display the month in
which the notice of the order or suspended investigation was
published in the Federal Register, also known as the anniversary
month. For example, for an order under case number A-000-000 that
published in the Federal Register in January, the relevant segment
and SSI combination will appear in ACCESS as ``AISL-January
Anniversary.'' Note that there will be only one annual inquiry
service list segment per case number, and the anniversary month will
be pre-populated in ACCESS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interested parties who wish to be added to the annual inquiry
service list for an order must submit an entry of appearance to the
annual inquiry service list segment for the order in ACCESS within 30
days after the date of publication of the order. For ease of
administration, Commerce requests that law firms with more than one
attorney representing interested parties in an order designate a lead
attorney to be included on the annual inquiry service list. Commerce
will finalize the annual inquiry service list within five business days
thereafter. As mentioned in the Procedural Guidance, the new annual
inquiry service list will be in place until the following year, when
the Opportunity Notice for the anniversary month of the order is
published.
Commerce may update an annual inquiry service list at any time as
needed based on interested parties' amendments to their entries of
appearance to remove or otherwise modify their list of members and
representatives, or to update contact information. Any changes or
announcements pertaining to these procedures will be posted to the
ACCESS website at https://access.trade.gov.
Special Instructions for Petitioners and Foreign Governments
In the Final Rule, Commerce stated that, ``after an initial request
and placement on the annual inquiry service list, both petitioners and
foreign governments will automatically be placed on the annual inquiry
service list in the years that follow.'' \10\ Accordingly, as stated
above, the petitioners and foreign governments should submit their
initial entry of appearance after publication of this notice in order
to appear in the first annual inquiry service list. Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.225(n)(3), the petitioners and foreign governments will not need to
resubmit their entries of appearance each year to continue to be
included on the annual inquiry service list. However, the petitioners
and foreign governments are responsible for making amendments to their
entries of appearance during the annual update to the annual inquiry
service list in accordance with the procedures described above.
