Further, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.303(f)(l)(i), a copy of each request
must be served on the petitioner and
each exporter or producer specified in
the request.
The Department will publish in the
Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation
of Administrative Review of
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation’’ for requests received by
the last day of July 2017. If the
Department does not receive, by the last
day of July 2017, a request for review of
entries covered by an order, finding, or
suspended investigation listed in this
notice and for the period identified
above, the Department will instruct CBP
to assess antidumping or countervailing
duties on those entries at a rate equal to
the cash deposit of (or bond for)
estimated antidumping or
countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect
the cash deposit previously ordered.
For the first administrative review of
any order, there will be no assessment
of antidumping or countervailing duties
on entries of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption during the relevant
provisional-measures ‘‘gap’’ period of
the order, if such a gap period is
applicable to the period of review.
This notice is not required by statute
but is published as a service to the
international trading community.

Determination of No Shipments
As noted in the Preliminary Results,
we received no shipment claims from
five companies involved in this
administrative review: Calsonic Kansei
(Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Calsonic Kansei);
Grobest Frozen Foods Co., Ltd.
(Grobest); Lucky Union Foods Co., Ltd.
(Lucky Union); Marine Gold Products
6 For a complete description of the Scope of the

(dated concurrently with these results) (Issues and

Ltd. (Marine Gold); and Thai Union
Manufacturing Company Limited (Thai
Union Manufacturing). In the
Preliminary Results, we preliminarily
determined that four of these companies
(i.e., Calsonic Kansei, Lucky Union,
Marine Gold, and Thai Union
Manufacturing) had no reviewable
transactions during the POR.7 We
received no comments from interested
parties with respect to these claims.
Therefore, because the record indicates
that these companies did not export
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR, we continue to
find that Calsonic Kansei, Lucky Union,
Marine Gold, and Thai Union
Manufacturing had no reviewable
transactions during the POR.
With respect to the remaining
company (i.e., Grobest), in the
Preliminary Results, we found
insufficient evidence on the record to
conclude that this company made no
shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR. As a result, we
30837
preliminarily included Grobest in the
administrative review.8 Because we
received no comments from interested
parties with respect to this
determination, we continue to include
Grobest in this administrative review.

calculated importer-specific ad valorem
duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of antidumping
duties calculated for the examined sales
to the total entered value of the sales for
which entered value was reported.
Where Mayao and Thai Union/Pakfood
did not report entered value, we
calculated the entered value in order to
calculate the assessment rates.
For the companies which were not
selected for individual examination, we
used as the assessment rate the average
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
of the cash deposit rates calculated for
Mayao and Thai Union/Pakfood.
Consistent with our established
practice, for entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced
by Mayao, Thai Union/Pakfood, or any
of the companies with accepted no
shipment claims for which they did not
know that the merchandise was
destined for the United States, we will
instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed
entries at the all-others rate effective
during the POR if there is no rate for the
intermediate company(ies) involved in
the transaction.

requirements will be effective for all
shipments of subject merchandise
entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the
publication date of the final results of
this administrative review, as provided
by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1)
The cash deposit rates for the reviewed
companies will be the rates shown
above; (2) for previously reviewed or
investigated companies not listed above,
as well as those companies listed in the
‘‘Determination of No Shipments’’
section, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate
published for the most recentlycompleted segment; (3) if the exporter is
not a firm covered in this review, a
previous review, or the original lessthan-fair value investigation, but the

Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only
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
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice serves as the only
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 return/
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.213(h).

Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From Thailand: Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; Final Determination of No
Shipments; 2015-2016
AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On March 6, 2017, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
published the preliminary results of the 2015-2016 administrative
review of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp
from Thailand. The review covers 160 producers/exporters of the subject
merchandise. The period of review (POR) is February 1, 2015, through
January 31, 2016.
We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the
preliminary results. After analyzing the comments received, our final
results remain unchanged from the preliminary results. Finally, we find
that four companies had no shipments of subject merchandise during the
POR.
DATES: Effective July 3, 2017.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Medley or Alice Maldonado, AD/
CVD Operations, Office II, Enforcement and Compliance, International
Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The review covers 160 producers/exporters of the subject
merchandise. The respondents which the Department selected for
individual examination are Mayao \1\ and Thai Union/Pakfood.\2\ The
respondents which were not selected for individual examination are
listed in the ``Final Results of the Review'' section of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Mayao consists of the following companies: A Foods 1991 Co.,
Limited and May Ao Foods Co., Ltd.
\2\ Thai Union/Pakfood consists of the following companies: Thai
Union Group Public Co., Ltd. (also known as Thai Union Frozen
Products Public Co., Ltd.), Thai Union Seafood Company Limited,
Pakfood Public Company Limited, Asia Pacific (Thailand) Co., Ltd.,
Chaophraya Cold Storage Co. Ltd., Okeanos Co. Ltd., Okeanos Food Co.
Ltd., and Takzin Samut Co. Ltd.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On March 6, 2017, the Department published the Preliminary
Results.\3\ We invited parties to comment on the preliminary results of
the review.\4\ In April 2017, we received a case brief from Mayao and
certain of the individual companies comprising Thai Union/Pakfood
(collectively, the respondents); \5\ we also received a rebuttal brief
from the Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action Committee (the petitioner). The
Department conducted this administrative review in accordance with
section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and
Preliminary Determination of No Shipments; 2015-2016, 82 FR 12540
(March 6, 2017) (Preliminary Results).
\4\ Id.
\5\ Thai Union/Pakfood's case brief was not filed on behalf of
the following companies which are included in the Thai/Union/Pakfood
collapsed entity: Asia Pacific (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Chaophraya Cold
Storage Co. Ltd., Okeanos Food Co. Ltd., and Takzin Samut Co. Ltd.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater
shrimp.\6\ The product is currently classified under the following
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) item numbers:
0306.17.00.03, 0306.17.00.06, 0306.17.00.09, 0306.17.00.12,
0306.17.00.15, 0306.17.00.18, 0306.17.00.21, 0306.17.00.24,
0306.17.00.27, 0306.17.00.40, 1605.21.10.30, and 1605.29.10.10.
Although the HTSUS numbers are provided for convenience and customs
purposes, the written product description remains dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ For a complete description of the Scope of the Order, see
the memorandum from Gary Taverman, Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations, to Ronald K.
Lorentzen, Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance, entitled, ``Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final
Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Certain
Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from Thailand,'' (dated concurrently with
these results) (Issues and Decision Memorandum), which is hereby
adopted by this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised in the case briefs by parties are listed in the
Appendix to this notice and addressed in the Issues and Decision
Memorandum. Parties can find a complete discussion of these issues and
the corresponding recommendations in the Issues and Decision
memorandum, which is on file electronically via Enforcement and
Compliance's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic
Service System (ACCESS). ACCESS is available to registered users at
https://access.trade.gov, and to all parties in the Central Records
Unit, Room B8024 of the main Department of Commerce building. In
addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can
be accessed directly at https://enforcement.trade.gov/frn/. The signed
and electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are
identical in content.
Determination of No Shipments
As noted in the Preliminary Results, we received no shipment claims
from five companies involved in this administrative review: Calsonic
Kansei (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Calsonic Kansei); Grobest Frozen Foods
Co., Ltd. (Grobest); Lucky Union Foods Co., Ltd. (Lucky Union); Marine
Gold Products
[[Page 30837]]
Ltd. (Marine Gold); and Thai Union Manufacturing Company Limited (Thai
Union Manufacturing). In the Preliminary Results, we preliminarily
determined that four of these companies (i.e., Calsonic Kansei, Lucky
Union, Marine Gold, and Thai Union Manufacturing) had no reviewable
transactions during the POR.\7\ We received no comments from interested
parties with respect to these claims. Therefore, because the record
indicates that these companies did not export subject merchandise to
the United States during the POR, we continue to find that Calsonic
Kansei, Lucky Union, Marine Gold, and Thai Union Manufacturing had no
reviewable transactions during the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See Preliminary Results, 82 FR at 12540.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
With respect to the remaining company (i.e., Grobest), in the
Preliminary Results, we found insufficient evidence on the record to
conclude that this company made no shipments of subject merchandise
during the POR. As a result, we preliminarily included Grobest in the
administrative review.\8\ Because we received no comments from
interested parties with respect to this determination, we continue to
include Grobest in this administrative review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Results of the Review
We are assigning the following dumping margins to the respondents
for the period February 1, 2015, through January 31, 2016, as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ On January 5, 2016, the Department found that Thai Union
Group Public Co., Ltd. is the successor-in-interest to Thai Union
Frozen Products Public Co., Ltd. See Notice of Final Results of

* No shipments or sales subject to this review.
Assessment Rates
The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), where Mayao and Thai Union/
Pakfood reported the entered value for their U.S. sales, we calculated
importer-specific ad valorem duty assessment rates based on the ratio
of the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for the examined
sales to the total entered value of the sales for which entered value
was reported. Where Mayao and Thai Union/Pakfood did not report entered
value, we calculated the entered value in order to calculate the
assessment rates.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ Shrimp produced and exported by Marine Gold were excluded
from the antidumping duty order effective February 1, 2012. See
Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From Thailand: Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, Partial Rescission of
Review, and Revocation of Order (in Part); 2011-2012, 78 FR 42497.
Accordingly, we are conducting this administrative review with
respect to Marine Gold only for shrimp produced in Thailand where
Marine Gold acted as either the manufacturer or exporter (but not
both).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the companies which were not selected for individual
examination, we used as the assessment rate the average of the cash
deposit rates calculated for Mayao and Thai Union/Pakfood.
Consistent with our established practice, for entries of subject
merchandise during the POR produced by Mayao, Thai Union/Pakfood, or
any of the companies with accepted no shipment claims for which they
did not know that the merchandise was destined for the United States,
we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all-others
rate effective during the POR if there is no rate for the intermediate
company(ies) involved in the transaction.
[[Page 30840]]
The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15
days after the date of publication of these final results of review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all
shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the publication date of the final results
of this administrative review, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of
the Act: (1) The cash deposit rates for the reviewed companies will be
the rates shown above; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated
companies not listed above, as well as those companies listed in the
``Determination of No Shipments'' section, the cash deposit rate will
continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most
recently-completed segment; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered
in this review, a previous review, or the original less-than-fair value
investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be
the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of
the merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other
manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 5.34 percent, the all-
others rate made effective by the Section 129 Determination.\12\ These
deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ Effective January 16, 2009, there is no longer a cash
deposit requirement for certain producers/exporters in accordance
with the Implementation of the Findings of the WTO Panel in United
States Antidumping Measure on Shrimp from Thailand: Notice of
Determination under Section 129 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act
and Partial Revocation of the Antidumping Duty Order on Frozen

responsibility, under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2), to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
