Fresh Tomatoes From Mexico

AGENCY:

International Trade Commission.

ACTION:

Termination of review.

SUMMARY:

On July 30, 2002, the Department of Commerce terminated its review of the suspended investigation on fresh tomatoes from Mexico (67 FR 50858, August 6, 2002). The basis for the termination is the withdrawal from the suspension agreement by Mexican tomato growers which account for a significant percentage of all fresh tomatoes imported into the United States from Mexico. Because the suspension agreement no longer covers substantially all imports of fresh tomatoes from Mexico, the Department of Commerce terminated the suspension agreement, terminated the review, and resumed the antidumping investigation. Accordingly, the U.S. International Trade Commission gives notice of the termination of its review involving imports from Mexico of fresh tomatoes, provided for in subheadings 0702.00 and 9906.07.01 through 9906.07.09 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

July 30, 2002.
