Background

    On November 1, 2011, the Department of Commerce (Department) 
published in the Federal Register a notice of opportunity to request 
administrative review of, inter alia, the antidumping duty order on 
fresh garlic from the People's Republic of China (PRC) covering the 
period November 1, 2010, through October 31, 2011.\1\ In November 2011, 
the Department received review requests from PRC producers/exporters of 
fresh garlic \2\ and the Fresh Garlic Producer Association (FGPA) and 
its individual members (collectively, Petitioners).\3\ On December 30, 
2011, the Department initiated this review for 120 producers/
exporters.\4\ Finally, on March 29, 2012, Petitioners timely withdrew 
their review requests for 100 producers/exporters listed as an 
attachment to this notice; \5\ one company, Zhengzhou Harmoni Spice 
Co., Ltd. also filed a timely withdrawal of its review request on the 
same date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative 
Review, 76 FR 67413 (November 1, 2011).
    \2\ They are Jinan Farmlady Trading Co., Ltd.; Qingdao Sea-Line 
International Trading Co., Ltd.; Shandong Jinxiang Zhengyang Import 
& Export Co., Ltd.; Shenzhen Xinboda Industrial Co., Ltd.; Zhengzhou 
Harmoni Spice Co., Ltd.; Weifang Hongqiao International Logistic 
Co., Ltd.
    \3\ The individual members of the FGPA are Christopher Ranch 
L.L.C., The Garlic Company, Valley Garlic, and Vessey and Company, 
Inc.
    \4\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 76 FR 
82268 (December 30, 2011) (Initiation Notice).
    \5\ See Attachment 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the day of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. The 
aforementioned requests for review were withdrawn within the 90-day 
period. Because the requests for review were timely withdrawn and 
because no other party requested a review of the aforementioned 
producers/exporters, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are 
partially rescinding this review with respect to these producers/
exporters.

Assessment Rates

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For 
those producers/exporters for which this review has been rescinded and 
which have a separate rate from a prior segment of this proceeding, 
antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit 
of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or 
withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(c)(2). For those producers/exporters for which this review has 
been rescinded and which have not been assigned a separate rate from a 
prior segment of the proceeding, the Department has stated that they 
belong to the PRC-wide entity and that the administrative review will 
continue for these companies.\6\ In both cases, the Department intends 
to issue the appropriate liquidation instructions directly to CBP 15 
days after publication of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Initiation Notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this 
review is being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, 
of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 
certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to 
liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure 
to comply with this requirement could result in the Secretary's 
presumption that reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and 
the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their

[[Page 36481]]

responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary 
information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, 
which continues to govern business proprietary information in this 
segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/
destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order 
is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms 
of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: June 11, 2012.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
