Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp 

From the Socialist Republic of 

Vietnam: Extension of Preliminary 

Results of Antidumping Duty New 

Shipper Review 

AGENCY: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Department’’) is extending the time 

limit for the preliminary results of the 

new shipper review of certain frozen 

warmwater shrimp (‘‘shrimp’’) from the 

Socialist Republic of Vietnam 

(‘‘Vietnam’’). The period of review for 

this review is February 1, 2010, through 

July 31, 2010. 

DATES: Effective Date: March 23, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul 

Walker, AD/CVD Operations, Office 9, 

Import Administration, International 

Trade Administration, U.S. Department 

of Commerce, 14th Street and 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482–0413. 

Background 

On October 1, 2010, the Department 

published a notice of initiation of the 

new shipper review in the antidumping 

duty order on shrimp from Vietnam for 

Quoc Viet Seaproducts Processing 

Trading and Import-Export Co., Ltd. 

(‘‘Quoc Viet’’). See Certain Frozen 

Warmwater Shrimp from the Socialist 

Republic of Vietnam: Initiation of 

Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review, 

75 FR 60730 (October 1, 2010). The 

preliminary results of this review are 

currently due no later than March 19, 

2011. 

Statutory Time Limits 

Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), and 

19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the 

Department to issue the preliminary 

results of a new shipper review within 

180 days after the date on which the 

new shipper review was initiated and 

final results within 90 days after the 

date on which the preliminary results 

are issued. However, the Department 

may extend the deadline for completion 

of the preliminary results of a new 

shipper review to 300 days if it 

determines that the case is 

extraordinarily complicated. See 19 CFR 

351.214(i)(2). 

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 

Results of Review 

The Department has determined that 

the review is extraordinarily 

complicated as the Department must 

issue, and analyze the responses to, 

additional supplemental questionnaires 

concerning Quoc Viet’s sales practices 

and its shrimp factors of production 

usage ratio. Moreover, the Department 

needs additional time to analyze the 

bona fide nature of Quoc Viet’s sale, 

which includes gathering data from U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection. Based 

on the timing of the case and the 

additional information that must be 

gathered, the preliminary results of this 

new shipper review cannot be 

completed within 180 days. 

Therefore, the Department is 

extending the time limit for completion 

of the preliminary results of this new 

shipper review by 26 days from the 

original March 19, 2011, deadline. The 

preliminary results will now be due no 

later than April 14, 2011. The final 

results continue to be due 90 days after 

the issuance of the preliminary results. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and 777(i) of the Act. 

Dated: March 16, 2011.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 

and Countervailing Duty Operations.

AGENCY: Import Administration,

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(the ‘‘Department’’) has determined that 

a request for a new shipper review 

(‘‘NSR’’) of the antidumping duty order 

on certain frozen warmwater shrimp 

(‘‘shrimp’’) from the Socialist Republic 

of Vietnam (‘‘Vietnam’’), received on 

February 28, 2011, meets the statutory 

and regulatory requirements for 

initiation. The period of review (‘‘POR’’) 

for this NSR is February 1, 2010– 

January 31, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The notice announcing the 

antidumping duty order on shrimp from 

Vietnam was published in the Federal 

Register on February 1, 2005.1 On 

February 28, 2011, pursuant to section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), and section 

351.214(c) of the Department’s 

regulations, the Department received a 

NSR request from Thong Thuan Seafood 

Co., Ltd. (‘‘Thong Thuan’’). Thong Thuan 

certified that it is a producer and 

exporter of the subject merchandise 

upon which the request was based. 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of 

the Act and section 351.214(b)(2)(i) of 

the Department’s regulations, Thong 

Thuan certified that it did not export 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the period of investigation 

(‘‘POI’’). In addition, pursuant to section 

751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the Act and section 

351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A) of the Department’s 

regulations, Thong Thuan certified that, 

since the initiation of the investigation, 

it has never been affiliated with any 

Vietnamese exporter or producer who

exported subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POI, including 

those respondents not individually 

examined during the investigation. As 

required by section 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B) 

of the Department’s regulations, Thong 

Thuan also certified that its export 

activities were not controlled by the 

central government of Vietnam. 

In addition to the certifications 

described above, pursuant to section 

351.214(b)(2)(iv) of the Department’s 

regulations, Thong Thuan submitted 

documentation establishing the 

following: (1) The date on which Thong 

Thuan first shipped subject 

merchandise for export to the United 

States and; (2) the volume of its first 

shipment; and (3) the date of its first 

sale to an unaffiliated customer in the 

United States.2

Initiation of New Shipper Review 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the 

Act and section 351.214(d)(1) of the 

Department’s regulations, we find that 

the request submitted by Thong Thuan 

meets the threshold requirements for 

initiation of a NSR for shipments of 

shrimp from Vietnam produced and 

exported by Thong Thuan.3 The POR is 

February 1, 2010—January 31, 2011.4

The Department intends to issue the 

preliminary results of this NSR no later 

than 180 days from the date of 

initiation, and the final results no later 

than 270 days from the date of 

initiation.5

It is the Department’s usual practice, 

in cases involving non-market 

economies, to require that a company 

seeking to establish eligibility for an 

antidumping duty rate separate from the 

NME entity-wide rate provide evidence 

of de jure and de facto absence of 

government control over the company’s 

export activities. Accordingly, we will 

issue questionnaires to Thong Thuan, 

which will include a section requesting 

information with regard to Thong 

Thuan’s export activities for separate 

rate purposes. The NSR will proceed if 

the response provides sufficient 

indication that Thong Thuan is not 

subject to either de jure or de facto 

government control with respect to its 

export of subject merchandise. 

We will instruct U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection to allow, at the option 

of the importer, the posting, until the 

completion of the review, of a bond or 

security in lieu of a cash deposit for 

each entry of the subject merchandise 

from Thong Thuan in accordance with 

section 751(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and 

section 351.214(e) of the Department’s 

regulations. Because Thong Thuan 

certified that it both produced and 

exported the subject merchandise, the 

sale of which is the basis for this new 

shipper review request, we will apply 

the bonding privilege to Thong Thuan 

only for subject merchandise which 

Thong Thuan both produced and 

exported. 

Interested parties requiring access to 

proprietary information in this NSR 

should submit applications for 

disclosure under administrative 

protective order in accordance with 

sections 351.305 and 351.306 of the 

Department’s regulations. 

This initiation and notice are in 

accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of 

the Act and sections 351.214 and 

351.221(c)(1)(i) of the Department’s 

regulations.
