International Trade Administration December 27, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On December 19, 2007, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued an Export Trade Certificate of Review to Global Express Trading, LLC (``GET''). This notice summarizes the conduct for which certification has been granted.

The purpose of this amended affirmative preliminary determination is to correct a significant ministerial error in the preliminary determination, published on November 30, 2007, that countervailable subsidies are being provided to producers and exporters of light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from the People's Republic of China.

The Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting a semiannual new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on canned pineapple fruit (CPF) from Thailand in response to a request from C & A Products Co., Ltd. (C&A). The period of review (POR) is July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The domestic interested party for this proceeding is Maui Pineapple Company Ltd. (petitioner). We preliminarily determine that C&A's sales are bona fide transactions. In addition, we preliminarily determine that C&A made its U.S. sales during the POR at prices above normal value. If these preliminary results are adopted in the final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate entries subject to this review without regard to antidumping duties. If these preliminary results are not adopted in the final results and the assessment rate calculated in the final results of this review is above de minimis (i.e., at or above 0.50 percent), we will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. The final results will be issued 90 days after the date of issuance of these preliminary results, unless extended.
