Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice From Brazil; Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Intent To Revoke Order in Part

Samenvatting

In response to timely requests for an administrative review by the respondents, Branco Peres Citrus (Branco Peres), Citropectina, S.A., and Frutropic, S.A., the Department of Commerce (the Department) is conducting an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) from Brazil. The review covers three manufacturers/exporters of this merchandise to the United States and the period May 1, 1991 through April 30, 1992. We preliminarily determine the dumping margins for Branco Peres, Citropectina, and Frutropic to be zero or de minimis during this period. The Department intends to revoke the antidumping duty order with respect to Frutropic because we have reason to believe that Frutropic has sold the subject merchandise at not less than foreign market value for a period of at least three consecutive years and is not likely to sell the subject merchandise at less than foreign market value in the future. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary results.
