International Trade Administration July 22, 2005 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In response to requests by interested parties, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain pasta (``pasta'') from Italy for the period of review (``POR'') July 1, 2003, through June 30, 2004. We preliminarily determine that during the POR, Barilla G.e.R. Fratelli, S.p.A. (``Barilla'') (formerly Barilla Alimentare, S.p.A.), Corticella Molini e Pastifici S.p.A. and its affiliate Pasta Combattenti S.p.A. (collectively, ``Corticella''),\1\ Industrie Alimentare Colavita, S.p.A. and its affiliate Fusco S.r.L. (collectively, ``Indalco''),\2\ Pastificio Riscossa F.lli Mastromauro, S.r.L. (``Riscossa''), and Pastificio F.lli Pagani S.p.A. (``Pagani'') sold subject merchandise at less than normal value (``NV''). If these preliminary results are adopted in the final results of this administrative review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties equal to the difference between the export price (``EP'') or constructed export price (``CEP'') and NV.

On January 12, 2005, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published in the Federal Register the preliminary results and rescission in part of the 2002-2003 administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain cased pencils (pencils) from the People's Republic of China (PRC). The period of review (POR) is December 1, 2002, through November 30, 2003. We have now completed the 2002-2003 administrative review of the order. Based on comments received, we have made changes in the dumping margin calculations. Therefore, the final results differ from the preliminary results. For details regarding these changes, see the section of this notice entitled ``Changes Since the Preliminary Results.'' The final results are listed below in the ``Final Results of Review'' section.
