Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this
administrative review, pursuant to
section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Act,
Commerce shall determine, and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this
review.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we
calculated importer-specific ad valorem
duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of dumping
calculated for the examined sales to the
total entered value of those sales. Where
either the respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de
minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), or an importer specific
assessment rate is zero or de minimis,
we will instruct CBP to liquidate the
appropriate entries without regard to
antidumping duties. The final results of
this review shall be the basis for the
assessment of antidumping duties on
entries of merchandise covered by this
review and for future deposits of
estimated duties, where applicable.14
In accordance with Commerce’s
‘‘automatic assessment’’ practice, for
entries of subject merchandise during
the POR produced by TYCSA for which
the company did not know that the
merchandise was destined for the
United States, we will instruct CBP to
liquidate those entries at the all-others
rate established in the less-than-fairvalue (LTFV) investigation (i.e., 14.75
percent) 15 if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.16
Commerce intends to issue
assessment instructions to CBP no
earlier than 35 days after the date of
publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a
timely summons is filed at the U.S.
Court of International Trade, the
assessment instructions will direct CBP
not to liquidate relevant entries until the
time for parties to file a request for a
statutory injunction has expired (i.e.,
within 90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit
requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided

section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.

E:\FR\FM\05JYN1.SGM
05JYN1
55582
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 129 / Friday, July 5, 2024 / Notices
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the
cash deposit rate for the company listed
above will be equal to the weighted
average dumping margin established in
the final results of this administrative
review, except if the rate is less than
0.50 percent and therefore, de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for
previously reviewed or investigated
companies not covered in this review,
the cash deposit rate will continue to be
the company-specific rate published for
the most recently-completed segment of
this proceeding in which the company
was reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not
a firm covered in this review, a prior
review, or the LTFV investigation, but
the producer is, then the cash deposit
rate will be the rate established for the
most recently-completed segment of this
proceeding for the producer of the
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other producers or exporters
will continue to be 14.75 percent, the
all-others rate established in the LTFV
investigation.17 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall
remain in effect until further notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary
reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)
to file a certificate regarding the
reimbursement of antidumping duties
prior to liquidation of the relevant
entries during this POR. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in Commerce’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19
CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: June 28, 2024.

Background
On August 3, 2023, Commerce
initiated an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on raw honey
from Brazil, in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act).1 This review covers
23 companies.2 On August 29, 2023,
Commerce selected Apis Nativa
Agroindustrial Exportadora Ltda. (Apis
Nativa) and Melbras Importadora E
Exportadora Agroindustrial Ltda.
(Melbras) for individual examination as
mandatory respondents.3
On February 14, 2024, Commerce
extended the time limit for completing
the preliminary results of this review
until June 28, 2024.4 For details

review, see the Preliminary Decision
Memorandum.5
Scope of the Order
The product covered by the scope of
this Order is raw honey from Brazil. A
complete description of the scope of the
Order is contained in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum.6
Rescission of Administrative Review, in
Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3),
when there are no reviewable entries of
subject merchandise during the POR
subject to the antidumping duty order
for which liquidation is suspended,
Commerce may rescind an
administrative review, in whole or only
with respect to a particular exporter or
producer.7
At the end of the administrative
review, any suspended entries are
liquidated at the assessment rate
computed for the review period.8
Therefore, for an administrative review
to be conducted, there must be a
reviewable, suspended entry to be
liquidated at the newly calculated
assessment rate. On May 20, 2024,
Commerce notified all interested parties
of its intent to rescind this review with
respect to certain companies because
those companies had no reviewable,
suspended entries of subject
merchandise and invited parties to
comment.9 We received no comments
on our intent to rescind the review with
respect to these companies.
Accordingly, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.213(d)(3) and (d)(4), we are
rescinding this administrative review
with respect to the five companies listed
in Appendix III to this notice that had
no reviewable, suspended entries of
subject merchandise during the POR.10
Methodology
Commerce is conducting this review
in accordance with section 751(a) of the
Act. We calculated export price and

Final Results of Review
Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final
results of this administrative review, including the results of its
analysis of the issues raised in any written briefs, no later than 120
days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal
Register, pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213(h)(1).
Assessment Rates
Upon completion of this administrative review, pursuant to section
751(a)(2)(A) of the Act, Commerce shall determine, and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we calculated importer-specific
ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio of the total amount
of dumping calculated for the examined sales to the total entered value
of those sales. Where either the respondent's weighted-average dumping
margin is zero or de minimis within the meaning of 19 CFR
351.106(c)(1), or an importer specific assessment rate is zero or de
minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate entries
without regard to antidumping duties. The final results of this review
shall be the basis for the assessment of antidumping duties on entries
of merchandise covered by this review and for future deposits of
estimated duties, where applicable.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ See section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with Commerce's ``automatic assessment'' practice,
for entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by TYCSA for
which the company did not know that the merchandise was destined for
the United States, we will instruct CBP to liquidate those entries at
the all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation (i.e., 14.75 percent) \15\ if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ See Order.
\16\ For a full description of this practice, see Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping
Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no earlier
than 35 days after the date of publication of the final results of this
review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at the
U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will
direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties
to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within
90 days of publication).
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of the
final results of this administrative review, as provided
[[Page 55582]]
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash deposit rate for the
company listed above will be equal to the weighted average dumping
margin established in the final results of this administrative review,
except if the rate is less than 0.50 percent and therefore, de minimis
within the meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash
deposit rate will be zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated
companies not covered in this review, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most
recently-completed segment of this proceeding in which the company was
reviewed; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a
prior review, or the LTFV investigation, but the producer is, then the
cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recently-
completed segment of this proceeding for the producer of the
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other producers or
exporters will continue to be 14.75 percent, the all-others rate
established in the LTFV investigation.\17\ These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\17\ See Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding
the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled
antidumping duties.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).
Dated: June 28, 2024.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance.
