    On December 13, 2011, C. P. Vietnam Corporation requested that the 
Department conduct a changed circumstances review to determine whether 
C. P. Vietnam Corporation is the successor-in-interest to C. P. Vietnam 
Livestock Corporation. On February 1, 2012, the Department initiated 
the changed circumstances review of C. P. Vietnam Corporation and 
preliminarily determined that C. P. Vietnam Corporation is the 
successor-in-interest to C. P. Vietnam Livestock Corporation.\4\ In the 
Preliminary Results, the Department invited interested parties to 
comment.\5\ We received no comments or requests for a hearing from 
interested parties.

Results'')
    \5\ See Preliminary Results at 4994.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The scope of the order includes certain warmwater shrimp and 
prawns, whether frozen, wild-caught (ocean harvested) or farm-raised 
(produced by aquaculture), head-on or head-off, shell-on or peeled, 
tail-on or tail-off,\6\ deveined or not deveined, cooked or raw, or 
otherwise processed in frozen form.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ ``Tails'' in this context means the tail fan, which includes 
the telson and the uropods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The frozen warmwater shrimp and prawn products included in the 
scope of this order, regardless of definitions in the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (``HTS''), are products which are 
processed from warmwater shrimp and prawns through freezing and which 
are sold in any count size.
    The products described above may be processed from any species of 
warmwater shrimp and prawns. Warmwater shrimp and prawns are generally 
classified in, but are not limited to, the Penaeidae family. Some 
examples of the farmed and wild-caught warmwater species include, but 
are not limited to, whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannemei), banana prawn 
(Penaeus merguiensis), fleshy prawn (Penaeus chinensis), giant river 
prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), giant tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon), 
redspotted shrimp (Penaeus brasiliensis), southern brown shrimp 
(Penaeus subtilis), southern pink shrimp (Penaeus notialis), southern 
rough shrimp (Trachypenaeus curvirostris), southern white shrimp 
(Penaeus schmitti), blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris), western white 
shrimp (Penaeus occidentalis), and Indian white prawn (Penaeus 
indicus).
    Frozen shrimp and prawns that are packed with marinade, spices or 
sauce are included in the scope of this order. In addition, food 
preparations (including dusted shrimp), which are not ``prepared 
meals,'' that contain more than 20 percent by weight of shrimp or prawn 
are also included in the scope of this order.
    Excluded from the scope are: (1) Breaded shrimp and prawns (HTS 
subheading 1605.20.10.20); (2) shrimp and prawns generally classified 
in the Pandalidae family and commonly referred to as coldwater shrimp, 
in any state of processing; (3) fresh shrimp and prawns whether shell-
on or peeled (HTS subheadings 0306.23.00.20 and 0306.23.00.40); (4) 
shrimp and prawns in prepared meals (HTS subheading 1605.20.05.10); (5) 
dried shrimp and prawns; (6) canned warmwater shrimp and prawns (HTS 
subheading 1605.20.10.40); and (7) certain battered shrimp. Battered 
shrimp is a shrimp-based product: (1) That is produced from fresh (or 
thawed-from-frozen) and peeled shrimp; (2) to which a ``dusting'' layer 
of rice or wheat flour of at least 95 percent purity has been applied; 
(3) with the entire surface of the shrimp flesh thoroughly and evenly 
coated with the flour; (4) with the non-shrimp content of the end 
product constituting between four and 10 percent of the product's total 
weight after being dusted, but prior to being frozen; and (5) that is 
subjected to individually quick frozen (``IQF'') freezing immediately 
after application of the dusting layer. When dusted in accordance with 
the definition of dusting above, the battered shrimp product is also 
coated with a wet viscous layer containing egg and/or milk, and par-
fried.
    The products covered by this order are currently classified under 
the following HTS subheadings: 0306.13.00.03, 0306.13.00.06, 
0306.13.00.09, 0306.13.00.12, 0306.13.00.15, 0306.13.00.18, 
0306.13.00.21, 0306.13.00.24, 0306.13.00.27, 0306.13.00.40, 
1605.20.10.10, and 1605.20.10.30. These HTS subheadings are provided 
for convenience and for customs purposes only and are not dispositive, 
but rather the written description of the scope of this order is 
dispositive.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ On April 26, 2011, the Department amended the antidumping 
duty order to include dusted shrimp, pursuant to the U.S. Court of 
International Trade (``CIT'') decision in Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action 
Committee v. United States, 703 F. Supp. 2d 1330 (CIT 2010) and the 
U.S. International Trade Commission determination, which found the 
domestic like product to include dusted shrimp.

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review

    For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, and because the 
Department did not receive any comments on the Preliminary Results of 
this review, the Department continues to find that C. P. Vietnam 
Corporation is the successor-in-interest to C. P. Vietnam Livestock 
Corporation, for purposes of the antidumping duty cash-deposit rate. 
Accordingly, C. P. Vietnam Corporation shall receive the same 
antidumping duty treatment as C. P. Vietnam Livestock Corporation.

Notification

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
that the cash deposit determination from this changed circumstances 
review will apply to all shipments of the subject merchandise produced 
and exported by C. P. Vietnam Corporation entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of the 
final results of this changed circumstances review. This deposit rate 
shall remain in effect until further notice.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility
