SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 31, 2024, Commerce published the Preliminary Results, determining that Gruppo Milo is the successor-in-interest to GRAMM for purposes of determining AD cash deposits and liabilities, and provided all interested parties with an opportunity to comment.
See Certain Pasta from Italy: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances Review,89 FR 61398 (July 31, 2024) ( Preliminary Results).
Id., 89 FR at 61400.
Scope of the Order 3
The merchandise subject to this Order is certain pasta from Italy. The product is currently classified under subheadings 1901.90.9095 and 1902.19.20 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and Customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise subject to the Order is dispositive. For a complete description of the scope of the Order, see the Preliminary Results.
See Preliminary Results, 89 FR at 61398-9.
Final Results of CCR
Because we received no comments from any interested party, these final results remain unchanged from the Preliminary Results and no decision memorandum accompanies this notice. Specifically, Commerce continues to find that Grupo Milo is the successor-in-interest to GRAMM and that, consistent with our established practice, Grupo Milo should receive the AD cash deposit rate previously assigned to GRAMM.
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced or exported by Gruppo Milo and entered, or withdrawn from the warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the Federal Register at 5.30 percent, which is the current AD cash deposit rate for GRAMM. This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further notice.
