摘要

The Office of the United States Trade Representative ("USTR") is providing notice that on May 22, 2009, Brazil requested consultations with the United States under the Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the World Trade Organization ("WTO Agreement") concerning the antidumping duty investigation on certain orange juice from Brazil, the second antidumping duty administrative review on certain orange juice from Brazil (Department of Commerce Case No. A- 351-840), and the "continued use of the US zeroing procedures (`model' or `simple' zeroing) in successive antidumping proceedings." On November 27, 2008, Brazil requested consultations with the United States concerning the first antidumping administrative review on certain orange juice from Brazil and various U.S. laws, regulations, administrative procedures, practices, and methodologies. Those requests may be found at www.wto.org contained in documents designated as WT/ DS382/1/Add.1 and WT/DS382/1, respectively. USTR invites written comments from the public concerning the issues raised in this dispute.
