On January 28, 2009, the Department of Commerce ("the Department") published a notice of initiation of a changed circumstances review ("CCR") of the countervailing duty ("CVD") order on certain pasta from Turkey as requested by Marsan Gida Sanayi ve Ticret A.S. ("Marsan") See Notice of Initiation of Countervailing Duty Changed Circumstances Review: Certain Pasta from Turkey, 74 FR 4938 (January 28, 2009) ("Initiation Notice"). As stated in the Initiation Notice, we are not applying the antidumping ("AD") successor-in-interest methodology to determine whether Marsan is the successor to Gidasa Sabanci Gida Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. ("Gidasa") for CVD purposes. Id. at 4939. After receiving additional information regarding the circumstances which warranted the CCR of Gidasa, pursuant to the new criteria outlined in the "Preliminary Results of Changed Circumstances Review" section below, we preliminarily find that Marsan is not the successor to Gidasa, for purposes of the CVD cash deposit rates, and therefore its merchandise should continue to enter under the "all others" cash deposit rate. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results.
