recurrence of dumping, pursuant to
section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and
section 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2) of the
Department’s regulations. See Letters to
the International Trade Commission
regarding the Sunset Reviews of the AD/
CVD Orders Initiated in July 2007, dated
July 22, 2008, and August 20, 2008. On
October 31, 2008, the Department
published a notice extending the time
limit for the completion of the final
results of this review by 40 days until
December 8, 2008. See Certain Frozen
Fish Fillets From the Socialist Republic
of Vietnam: Extension of Time Limit for
the Final Results of the Expedited
Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty
Order, 73 FR 64913 (October 31, 2008).
Extension of Time Limits for Final
Results
In accordance with section
751(c)(5)(B) of the Act, the Department
may extend the 120–day time period for
making its determination by not more
than 90 days, if it determines that a
review is extraordinarily complicated.
As set forth in section 751(c)(5)(C)(i) of
the Act, the Department may treat a
sunset review as extraordinarily
complicated if there are a large number
of issues, as is the case in this
proceeding. Therefore, the Department
has determined, pursuant to section
751(c)(5)(C)(i) of the Act, that the first
sunset review of frozen fish fillets from
Vietnam is extraordinarily complicated.
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for the
completion of the final results by an
additional 50 days, from December 8,
2008, to no later than January 27, 2009,
in accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B)
of the Act.
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(c)(5)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act.

Final Rescission of Administrative
Review
In the Preliminary Results, the
Department issued a notice of its intent
to rescind this review because it was
satisfied that there were no U.S. entries
of subject merchandise from the
respondents (i.e., CST and CSN) during
the POR as indicated by the record. See
Preliminary Results, at 73 FR 51443. As
the Department received no comments
on its intent to rescind this review, it
continues to find that rescission of the
review is appropriate. Therefore, the
Department is rescinding this review.
Assessment Rates
The Department intends to issue
assessment instructions to the U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
15 days after the date of publication of
this rescission of administrative review.
The Department will direct CBP to
assess antidumping duties for CST and
CSN at the cash deposit rate in effect on
the date of entry for entries during the
period March 1, 2007, through February
29, 2008.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers for whom this review is
being rescinded, of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a
certificate regarding 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
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Orders
This notice 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 the return or
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply

Final Rescission of Administrative Review
In the Preliminary Results, the Department issued a notice of its
intent to rescind this review because it was satisfied that there were
no U.S. entries of subject merchandise from the respondents (i.e., CST
and CSN) during the POR as indicated by the record. See Preliminary
Results, at 73 FR 51443. As the Department received no comments on its
intent to rescind this review, it continues to find that rescission of
the review is appropriate. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this
review.
Assessment Rates
The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to the U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') 15 days after the date of
publication of this rescission of administrative review. The Department
will direct CBP to assess antidumping duties for CST and CSN at the
cash deposit rate in effect on the date of entry for entries during the
period March 1, 2007, through February 29, 2008.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this
review is being rescinded, of their responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding 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
Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice 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 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 sanctionable
violation.
This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).
Dated: December 3, 2008.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
