Scope of the Order Imports covered by the order are shipments of certain non-egg dry pasta. The merchandise subject to review is currently classifiable under items 1901.90.90.95 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.\4\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ For a full description of the scope of the order, see the ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Partial Rescission: Certain Pasta from Italy; 2014-2015'' from Christian Marsh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, dated December 12, 2016 (Issues and Decision Memorandum). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ministerial Errors Section 751(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.224(f) define a ministerial error as an error ``in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical errors resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any other type of unintentional error which {the Department{time} considers ministerial.'' We analyzed the ministerial error comments submitted by Indalco and Liguori and determined, in accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), that there is a ministerial error in our margin calculations for Liguori for the Final Results. For a complete discussion of the alleged errors, see the Department's Ministerial Error Memorandum.\5\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \5\ See ``Amended Final Results of the 2014-2015 Administrative Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Certain Pasta from Italy: Allegation of Ministerial Error,'' dated concurrently with this notice (``Ministerial Error Memorandum''). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are amending the Final Results. Specifically, we are amending the weighted-average dumping margin for Liguori, as well as for the companies that were not selected for individual examination, which were assigned the rate based on the weighted-average dumping margins for Indalco and Liguori.\6\ The revised weighted-average dumping margins for the affected companies are detailed below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \6\ See Final Results, 81 FR at 91120. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amended Final Results As a result of correcting for the ministerial error, we determined the following amended weighted-average dumping margins exist for the period July 1, 2014, through June 30, 2015: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted-average Producer and/or exporter dumping margin (percent) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Industria Alimentare Colavita S.p.A.
