Seventh Administrative Review of Honey from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Intent to Rescind, In Part

概要

The Department of Commerce ("Department") is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on honey from the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), covering the period of review ("POR") of December 1, 2007, through November 30, 2008. As discussed below, we have preliminarily determined to rescind this administrative review because we have found the sales made by Dongtai Peak Honey Industry Co., Ltd. ("Dongtai Peak") that entered during the POR were not bona fide. In addition, we have preliminarily determined to apply adverse facts available ("AFA") with respect to the PRC-wide entity which includes Anhui Native Produce Import and Export Corp. ("Anhui Native"), as it failed to cooperate to the best of its ability and impeded the proceeding. We are also preliminarily finding that Qinhuangdao Municipal Dafeng Industrial Co., Ltd. ("QMD"), Inner Mongolia Youth Trade Development Co., Ltd. ("Inner Mongolia"), and Wuhu Qinshgi Tangye ("Wuhu Qinshgi") did not demonstrate their eligibility for a separate rate and thus are considered to be part of the PRC-wide entity. If these preliminary results are adopted in our final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs
