See Sunset Initiation. On January 13, 2011, the Government of Norway (GON), Norwegian Seafood Federation (NSF), and Aquaculture Division of the Norwegian Seafood Association (ADNSA) (collectively, the respondents), filed letters of appearance in the review.1 On January 18, 2011, Phoenix Salmon U.S., Inc. (Phoenix Salmon), a domestic producer of fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon, filed a notice of intent to participate in the review.2 On January 21, 2011, NSF and ADNSA supplemented their letter of appearance by submitting to the Department a list of their members. On February 2, 2011, the Department received a substantive response from Phoenix Salmon and a joint substantive response from the respondents within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3)(i). Based on a finding that the substantive responses were adequate, we determined to conduct a full sunset review of this AD order. See Memorandum to Gary Taverman, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, from Melissa Skinner, Director, Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, Office 3, regarding ‘‘Adequacy Determination: Third Sunset Reviews of the Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders on Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon From Norway’’ (April 6, 2011). On July 29, 2011, the Department published in the Federal Register the preliminary results of the full third sunset review of the AD order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway. See Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon From Norway: Preliminary Results of Full Third Sunset Review of Antidumping Duty Order, 76 FR 45513 (July 29, 2011) (Preliminary Results) and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum. We preliminarily found that dumping was likely to continue or recur. 1 These public documents and all other public documents and public versions of proprietary documents with regard to this third full sunset review are available on the public record located in the Department’s Central Records Unit at room 7046 of the main Department of Commerce building. 2 Phoenix Salmon claimed to be the successor to the two domestic producers who participated in the prior sunset review—Atlantic Salmon of Maine and Heritage Salmon Company, Inc. VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:40 Nov 10, 2011 Jkt 226001 The Department invited interested parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. On September 19, 2011, we received a case brief from the GON, and on September 26, 2011, we received a rebuttal brief from Phoenix Salmon. We did not conduct a hearing because a hearing was not requested. Scope of the Order The product covered by the order is the species Atlantic salmon (Salmon Salar) marketed as specified herein; the order excludes all other species of salmon: Danube salmon, Chinook (also called ‘‘king’’ or ‘‘quinnat’’), Coho (‘‘silver’’), Sockeye (‘‘redfish’’ or ‘‘blueback’’), Humpback (‘‘pink’’) and Chum (‘‘dog’’).3 Atlantic salmon is a whole or nearly-whole fish, typically (but not necessarily) marketed gutted, bled, and cleaned, with the head on. The subject merchandise is typically packed in fresh-water ice (‘‘chilled’’). Excluded from the subject merchandise are fillets, steaks and other cuts of Atlantic salmon. Also excluded are frozen, canned, smoked or otherwise processed Atlantic salmon. Atlantic salmon is currently provided for under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheadings 0302.12.0003 and 0302.12.0004. The HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes. The written description remains dispositive as to the scope of the product coverage. Analysis of Comments Received All issues raised in this review are addressed in the Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Results of Full Third Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon from Norway (Decision Memorandum) from Gary Taverman, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Paul Piquado, Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, dated concurrently with this final notice, which is hereby adopted by this notice. Parties can find a complete discussion of all issues raised in this full sunset review and the corresponding recommendation in this public memorandum which is on file electronically via Import Administration’s Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Services System (IA ACCESS).

Final Results of Review We determine that revocation of the AD duty order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping at the following weighted-average margins: Manufacturer/exporter Margin (percent) Salmonor A/S .............................

SUMMARY: On January 3, 2011, the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated a sunset review of the countervailing duty (CVD) order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). See Initiation of Five-Year (‘‘Sunset’’) Review, 76 FR 89 (January 3, 2011) (Sunset Initiation). On the basis of a notice of intent to participate and an adequate substantive response filed on behalf of the domestic interested party and adequate substantive responses from the respondent interested parties, the Department determined to conduct a full sunset review of this CVD order pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(2). As a result of our analysis, the Department finds that revocation of the CVD order would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. DATES: Effective Date: November 14, 2011. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kristen Johnson, AD/CVD Operations, Office 3, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–4793. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background On January 3, 2011, the Department initiated the third sunset review of the CVD order on fresh and chilled Atlantic salmon from Norway pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act. See Sunset Initiation. Phoenix Salmon U.S., Inc. (Phoenix Salmon), the domestic interested party, timely filed a notice of intent to participate and submitted a substantive response to the Department. The Government of Norway (GON), the Norwegian Seafood Federation, and Aquaculture Division of the Norwegian Seafood Association, the respondent interested parties, also submitted to the Department a substantive response. Based on a finding that the substantive responses were adequate, we determined to conduct a full sunset PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 70411 review of this CVD order.

On June 28, 2011, the Department published the preliminary results of this full sunset review, finding a likelihood of continuation or recurrence of subsidization with a net countervailable subsidy likely to prevail of 2.20 percent ad valorem for all producers/exporters of subject merchandise from Norway. See Fresh and Chilled Atlantic Salmon From Norway: Preliminary Results of Full Third Sunset Review of Countervailing Duty Order, 76 FR 37786 (June 28, 2011).
