SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On October 28, 2005, the Department
of Commerce (the ‘‘Department’’)
published in the Federal Register a
notice of preliminary results of the full
sunset review of the antidumping duty
order on BSS from Germany, pursuant
to section 751(c) of the Act. See Brass
Sheet and Strip from Germany:
Preliminary Results of the Sunset
Review of Antidumping Duty Order, 70
FR 62093 (October 28, 2005)
(‘‘Preliminary Results’’). In our
Preliminary Results, we determined that
revocation of the order would likely
result in continuation or recurrence of
dumping with a margin of 3.81 percent
for Wieland–Werke AG and an ‘‘all
others’’ rate of 7.30 percent. We did not
receive a case brief on behalf of either
domestic or respondent interested
parties within the deadline specified in
19 CFR 351.309(c)(1)(i).
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
brass sheet and strip, other than leaded
and tinned. The chemical composition
of the covered product is currently
defined in the Copper Development
Association (‘‘C.D.A.’’) 200 Series or the
Unified Numbering System (‘‘U.N.S.’’)
C2000. This order does not cover
products with chemical compositions
that are defined by anything other than
either the C.D.A. or U.N.S. series. In
physical dimensions, the product
covered by this order has a solid
rectangular cross section over 0.0006
inches (0.15 millimeters) through 0.1888
inches (4.8 millimeters) in finished
thickness or gauge, regardless of width.
Coiled, wound–on-reels (traverse
wound), and cut–to-length products are
included. The merchandise is currently
classified under Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’) item numbers 7409.21.00
and 7409.29.00. The HTSUS numbers
are provided for convenience and
customs purposes. The written
description of the scope of this order
remains dispositive.

Final Results of Review

margins:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department received a timely
request from Patagonik S.A. (Patagonik), form, and whether packaged for retail or
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(c),
PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703
for a new shipper review of the
antidumping duty order on honey from
Argentina. See Notice of Antidumping
Duty Order: Honey from Argentina, 66
FR 63672 (December 10, 2001).
Patagonik identified itself as the
exporter of subject merchandise
produced by its supplier Colmenares
As required by 19 CFR
3.81 351.214(b)(2)(i),(ii), and (iii)(A),
7.30 Patagonik certified it did not export
honey to the United States during the
period of investigation (POI), and that it
has never been affiliated with any
honey during the POI. As required by 19
CFR 351.214(b)(2)(ii)(B), Patagonik’s
supplier, Colmenares Santa Rosa s.r.l.,
certified that it did not export the
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POI. Our inquires and
Customs run queries with U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) show that
the shipment entered the United States
shortly after the anniversary month.
Under section 351.214(f)(2)(ii) of the
Department’s regulations, when the sale
of the subject merchandise occurs
within the period of review (POR), but
the entry occurs after the normal POR,
the POR may be extended unless it
would be likely to prevent the
completion of the review within the
time limits set by the Department’s
regulations. The preamble to the
Department’s regulations states that
both the entry and the sale should occur
during the POR, and that under
‘‘appropriate’’ circumstances the
Department has the flexibility to extend
the POR. See Antidumping Duties;
Countervailing Duties; Final Rule, 62 FR
27296, 27319, 27320 (May 19, 1997). In
this instance, Patagonik’s shipment
entered in the month following the end
of the POR. The Department does not
find that this delay prevents the
completion of the review within the
time limits set by the Department’s
regulations. Accordingly, we are
extending the POR by one month to
capture both the sale and subsequent
entry during the New Shipper POR.
The merchandise under review is
honey from the Argentina. The products
covered are natural honey, artificial
natural honey by weight, preparations of
percent natural honey by weight, and
flavored honey. The subject
merchandise includes all grades and
colors of honey whether in liquid,
creamed, comb, cut comb, or chunk
in bulk form. The merchandise under
E:\FR\FM\26JAN1.SGM 26JAN1
 4350 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 17 / Thursday, January 26, 2006 / Notices
review is currently classifiable under
item 0409.00.00, 1702.90.90, and
2106.90.99 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
Although the HTSUS subheading is
provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written description of the
merchandise under review is
dispositive.
Initiation of Review
In accordance with section
751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930
(the Tariff Act), as amended, and 19
CFR 351.214(d)(1), and based on
information on the record, we are
initiating a new shipper review for
Patagonik. See Memorandum to the File
through Richard O. Weible, ‘‘New
Shipper Review Initiation Checklist’’,
dated January 31, 2006. We intend to
issue the preliminary results of this
review not later than 180 days after the
date on which this review is initiated,
and the final results of this review
within 90 days after the date on which
the preliminary results are issued.
Pursuant to 19 CFR
351.214(g)(1)(i)(A), the POR for a new
shipper review initiated in the month
immediately following the anniversary
month will be the 12-month period
immediately preceding the anniversary
month. Under section 351.214(f)(2)(ii) of
the Department’s regulations, when the
sale of the subject merchandise occurs
within the POR, but the entry occurs
after the normal POR, the POR may be
extended unless it would be likely to
prevent the completion of the review
within the time limits set by the
Department’s regulations. Therefore, the
POR for this new shipper review is
December 1, 2004, through December
31, 2005. This review will cover sales by
Patagonik of honey produced by
Colmenares Santa Rosa s.r.l.
In accordance with section
751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Tariff Act, and 19
CFR 351.214(e), we will instruct CBP to
allow, at the option of the importer, the
posting, until the completion of the
review, of a single entry bond or
security in lieu of a cash deposit for
certain entries of the merchandise
exported by the above–listed
companies, i.e, Patagonik as the
exporter and Colmenares Santa Rosa
S.R.L as the producer. Thus, we will
instruct CBP to limit the bonding option
only to entries of subject merchandise
exported by Patagonik and produced by
Colmenares Santa Rosa S.R.L.
Interested parties seeking access to
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
proprietary information in this new
shipper review should submit
applications for disclosure under

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and

Tariff Act and 19 CFR 351.214(d).
