270 days from the date of initiation. See
section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act.
On August 17, 2006, the Pension
Protection Act of 2006 (‘‘H.R. 4’’) was
signed into law. Section 1632 of H.R. 4
temporarily suspends the authority of
the Department to instruct CBP to
collect a bond or other security in lieu
of a cash deposit in new shipper
reviews. Therefore, the posting of a
bond under section 751(a)(B)(iii) of the
Act in lieu of a cash deposit is not
available in this case. Importers of
shrimp from Vietnam manufactured
and/or exported by BIM Seafood must
continue to post cash deposits of
estimated antidumping duties on each
entry of subject merchandise at the
current Vietnam–wide rate of 25.76
percent.
Interested parties requiring access to
proprietary information in this NSR
should submit applications for
disclosure under administrative
protective order in accordance with 19
CFR 351.305 and 351.306. This
initiation and notice are published in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and
351.221(c)(1)(i).
Dated: March 26, 2008.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import

Background
On February 19, 2008, the Department
of Commerce (Department) initiated the
countervailing duty investigation of

circular welded austenitic stainless
pressure pipe from the People’s
Republic of China. See Circular Welded
Austenitic Stainless Pressure Pipe from
the People’s Republic of China: Notice
of Initiation of Countervailing Duty
Investigation, 73 FR 9994 (February 25,
2008). Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than April
24, 2008.
The version of the notice of
postponement of the preliminary
determination released on Thursday,
March 27, 2008, stated that the deadline
for completion of the final
determination is June 30, 2008. The
notice should have stated that the
deadline for completion of the
preliminary determination is June 30,
2008. This amended notice corrects that
error. This error was discovered prior to
publication of the notice in the Federal
Register, consequently, this amendment
is being published in its place.
Postponement of Due Date for
Preliminary Determination
Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), requires the
Department to issue the preliminary
determination in a countervailing duty
investigation within 65 days after the
date on which the Department initiated
the investigation. However, if the
Department concludes that the parties
concerned in the investigation are
cooperating and determines that the
investigation is extraordinarily
complicated, section 703(c)(1)(B) of the
Act allows the Department to postpone
making the preliminary determination
until no later than 130 days after the
date on which the administering
authority initiated the investigation.
The Department is currently
investigating alleged subsidy programs
involving loans, grants, income tax
incentives, and the provision of goods
or services for less than adequate
remuneration. Due to the number and
complexity of the alleged
countervailable subsidy practices being
investigated, it is not practicable to
complete the preliminary determination
of this investigation within the original
time limit (i.e., by April 24, 2008).
Therefore, in accordance with section
703(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we are fully
extending the due date for the
preliminary determination to no later
than 130 days after the day on which
the investigation was initiated.
However, as that date falls on a
Saturday, the deadline for completion of
the preliminary determination is now
June 30, 2008, the next business day.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act.
