SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 7, 2015, the Department published the Preliminary 
Results, and invited interested parties to comment. The Department did 
not receive any comments on the Preliminary Results.

Period of Review

    The POR covered by this proceeding is July 1, 2013, through January 
31, 2014.

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by this order are certain non-egg dry pasta 
in packages of five pounds (2.27 kilograms) or less, whether or not 
enriched or fortified or containing milk or other optional ingredients 
such as chopped vegetables, vegetable purees, milk, gluten, diastases, 
vitamins, coloring and flavorings, and up to two percent egg white. The 
pasta covered by this scope is typically sold in the retail market, in 
fiberboard or cardboard cartons, or polyethylene or polypropylene bags 
of varying dimensions. Excluded from the scope of this review are 
refrigerated, frozen, or canned pastas, as well as all forms of egg 
pasta, with the exception of non-egg dry pasta containing up to two 
percent egg white.
    The merchandise subject to review is currently classifiable under 
item 1902.19.20 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States 
(HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and 
customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise subject to 
the order is dispositive.

Final Results of Review

    As a result of this review, we determine that the following 
weighted-average dumping margin exists for the POR July 1, 2013, 
through January 31, 2014:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                       Weighted-average
               Manufacturer/exporter                    dumping margin
                                                          (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Be[scedil]san Makarna Gida San. Ve Tic. A.S........                0.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department will determine, 
and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance 
with the final results of this review. Because Bessan's weighted 
average dumping margin is zero, in accordance with the Final 
Modification, we will instruct CBP to liquidate all entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced and exported by Bessan without 
regard to antidumping duties.\2\ For entries of subject merchandise 
during the POR produced and exported by Bessan for which it did not 
know its merchandise was destined for the United States, we will 
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others rate if 
there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the 
transaction.\3\ We intend to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 
days after the date of publication of these final results of review.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following deposit requirements will be effective upon 
publication of the notice of final results of new shipper review for 
all shipments of pasta from Turkey entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication as 
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit rate 
for Bessan shall be zero; (2) for merchandise exported by manufacturers 
or exporters not covered in this review but covered in a prior segment 
of the proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the 
company-specific rate published for the most recent period in which the 
manufacturer or exporter participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 
firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original less-than-
fair-value investigation but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate 
will be the rate established for the most recent period for the 
manufacturer of the merchandise; (4) the cash deposit rate for all 
other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 51.49 percent, the 
all-others rate established in the less-than-fair-value 
investigation.\4\ These cash deposit requirements, when imposed, shall 
remain in effect until further notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent

[[Page 16363]]

assessment of double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the 
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of 
APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby 
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO 
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214.

    Dated: March 18, 2015.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
