Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 13, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elizabeth Eastwood or Jill Pollack, 
Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. 
Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW,

respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background:

    On May 5, 1987, the Department published in the Federal Register an 
antidumping duty order on frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) from 
Brazil covering all Brazilian producers except Sucocitrico Cultrale, 
S.A. See Antidumping Duty Order of Sales at Less than Fair Value: 
Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice from Brazil, 52 FR 16426 (May 5, 
1987).
    On January 19, 2005, the Department initiated a changed 
circumstances administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
FCOJ from Brazil at the request of Louis Dreyfus Citrus Inc., (Louis 
Dreyfus). See Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice from Brazil; Initiation 
of Changed Circumstances Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 
3904 (Jan 27, 2005). On March 18, 2005, Louis Dreyfus withdrew its 
request for a changed circumstances review.

Rescission of Changed Circumstances Review

    Section 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations provides that 
the Department will rescind an administrative review if a party that 
requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. (19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1) (2004)) The Department's rules regarding review 
withdrawals do not specifically reference changed circumstances 
administrative reviews. In this case, Louis Dreyfus requested 
withdrawal of its changed circumstances review within ninety days of 
the review being initiated, the time period the Department generally 
considers reasonable for requesting the withdrawal of administrative 
reviews. Therefore, the Department has accepted Louis Dreyfus' 
withdrawal request in this case as timely.
    The Department is now rescinding this changed circumstances 
antidumping duty administrative review. U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection will continue to suspend liquidation, as appropriate, of 
entries of subject merchandise at the appropriate cash deposit rate for 
entries of FCOJ from Brazil.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written 
notification of return or destruction of APO materials or conversion to 
judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with 
the regulation and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
    This determination is issued and published in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

    Dated: April 5, 2005.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
