ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Notice is hereby given that a
complaint was filed with the U.S.
SUMMARY:
3 In its preliminary determinations, Commerce
found that imports of frozen warmwater shrimp
from Ecuador and Indonesia were not being and not
likely to be subsidized by the Governments of
Ecuador or Indonesia (78 FR 33342–33351, June 4,
2013). However, in its final determinations,
Commerce found imports of frozen warmwater
shrimp from Ecuador were being subsidized, but
that imports of frozen warmwater shrimp from
Thailand in addition to those from Indonesia were
not being and not likely to be subsidized by the
Governments of Indonesia and Thailand. Following
final negative determinations by Commerce with
respect to frozen warmwater shrimp from Indonesia
and Thailand (78 FR 50379–50394, August 19,
2013), the Commission terminated investigation
Nos. 701–TA–494 and 496 (78 FR 54912, September
6, 2013).
4 Due to the lapse in appropriations and ensuing
cessation of Commission operations, all import
injury investigations conducted under authority of
Title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930 have been tolled
by 16 days.
