The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and NMFS have developed a pilot plan to test and assess the electronic transmission of import data for tuna, swordfish and toothfish. The pilot test will involve using the ACE, the NMFS PGA Message Set, the DIS and the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) to transmit the data required for admissibility determinations for entries of tuna, swordfish and toothfish. ABI is the electronic data interchange that enables participants to file electronically required import data with CBP and transfers that data into ACE. Initially, under this test, NMFS PGA Message Set data may be submitted only for formal and informal consumption entries (entry types 01 and 11), filed at certain ports.

Preliminary Rescission of Kaihua

    For the reasons detailed in the Preliminary Decision Memorandum, 
the Department preliminarily finds that Kaihua's sale under review is 
not bona fide, and therefore, does not provide a reasonable or reliable 
basis for calculating a dumping margin. The Department reached this 
conclusion based on the totality of the circumstances, including: (a) 
The atypical nature of Kaihua's price; (b) Kaihua's failure to 
demonstrate that it received payment for the sale; and (c) the atypical 
circumstances surrounding the sale. As result, the Department is 
preliminarily rescinding the new shipper review of Kaihua.

Disclosure and Public Comment

    The Department will disclose the analysis performed for these 
preliminary results to the parties within five days of the date of 
publication of this notice in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 
Interested parties may submit written comments by no later than 30 days 
after the date of publication of these preliminary results of 
review.\4\ Rebuttals, limited to issues raised in the written comments, 
may be filed by no later than five days after the written comments are

    Any interested party may request a hearing within 30 days of 
publication of this notice.\6\ Hearing requests should contain the 
following information: (1) The party's name, address, and telephone 
number; (2) the number of participants; and (3) a list of the issues to 
be discussed. Oral presentations will be limited to issues raised in 
the briefs. If a request for a hearing is made, parties will be 
notified of the time and date for the hearing to be held at the U.S. 
Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 
20230.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See 19 CFR 351.310(c).
    \7\ See 19 CFR 351.310(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department intends to issue the final results of this new 
shipper review, which will include the results of its analysis of 
issues raised in any such comments, within 90 days of publication of 
these preliminary results, pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the 
Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon completion of the final results, pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.212(b), the Department will determine, and the U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all 
appropriate entries. If we proceed to a final rescission of the new 
shipper review, Kaihua's entries will be assessed at the rate 
entered.\8\ If we do not proceed to a final rescission of the new 
shipper review, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we will calculate 
importer-specific assessment rates. We will instruct CBP to assess 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review if 
any importer-specific assessment rate calculated in the final results 
of this review is above de minimis.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See 19 CFR 351.212(c).
    \9\ See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Although the Department intends to rescind the new shipper review 
for Kaihua, the Department is currently conducting an administrative 
review for the POR November 1, 2013, through October 31, 2014, which 
could include the entries subject to this new shipper review. 
Accordingly, we will instruct CBP to continue to suspend entries during 
the period November 1, 2013, through October 31, 2014, of subject 
merchandise exported by Kaihua until CBP receives instructions relating 
to the administrative review covering the period November 1, 2013, 
through October 31, 2014.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Effective upon publication of the final rescission or the final 
results of this NSR, we will instruct CBP to discontinue the option of 
posting a bond or security in lieu of a cash deposit for entries of 
subject merchandise by Kaihua. If the Department proceeds to a final 
rescission of the new shipper review, the cash deposit rate will 
continue to be the PRC-wide rate. If we issue final results of the new 
shipper review for Kaihua, we will instruct CBP to collect cash 
deposits, effective upon the publication of the final results, at the 
rates established therein.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the 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 Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    The Department is issuing and publishing these results in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.214 and 351.221(b)(4).

    Dated: May 29, 2015.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
