The Department of Commerce (Department) is conducting a new shipper review (NSR) of Qingdao Sea-line Trading Co. Ltd. (Qingdao Sea- line) under the antidumping duty order on fresh garlic from the People's Republic of China (PRC) covering the period of review (POR) of November 1, 2008 through April 30, 2009. As discussed below, we determine that a sale has been made in the United States at a price below normal value (NV) with respect to Qingdao Sea-line, an exporter who participated fully and demonstrated its eligibility for separate rate. See Fresh Garlic From the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of New Shipper Review, 75 FR 24578 (May 5, 2010) (Preliminary Results). We are continuing to find Qingdao Sea-line's sale to be bona fide for the final results of this review. We intend to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on entries of subject merchandise during the POR for which importer- specific assessment rates are above de minimis.
