SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 14, 2023, the U.S. 

Department of Commerce (Commerce) 

initiated countervailing duty 

investigations of imports of frozen 

warmwater shrimp from Ecuador, India, 

Indonesia, and Vietnam.1 Currently, the 

preliminary determinations are due no 

later than January 18, 2024. 

Postponement of Preliminary 

Determinations 

Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

Commerce to issue the preliminary 

determination in a countervailing duty 

investigation within 65 days after the 

date on which Commerce initiated the 

investigation. However, section 

703(c)(1) of the Act permits Commerce 

to postpone the preliminary 

determination until no later than 130 

days after the date on which Commerce 

initiated the investigation if: (A) the 

petitioner makes a timely request for a 

postponement; or (B) Commerce 

concludes that the parties concerned are 

cooperating, that the investigation is 

extraordinarily complicated, and that 

additional time is necessary to make a 

preliminary determination. Under 19 

CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must 

submit a request for postponement 25 

days or more before the scheduled date 

of the preliminary determination and 

must state the reasons for the request. 

Commerce will grant the request unless 

it finds compelling reasons to deny the 

request. 

On November 27, 2023, the 

petitioner 2 submitted a timely request 

to postpone the preliminary 

determinations in these investigations.3

The petitioner stated that postponement 

of the preliminary determinations is 

necessary because the current schedule 

does not provide adequate time for a

4 Id. 

5Postponing the preliminary determination to 

130 days after initiation would place the deadline 

on Saturday, March 23, 2024. Commerce’s practice 

dictates that where a deadline falls on a weekend 

or a federal holiday, the appropriate deadline is the 

next business day. See Notice of Clarification: 

Application of ‘‘Next Business Day’’ Rule for 

Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant 

to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533

of the issues in these cases and the 

number of subsidy programs under 

investigation in each.4

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioner has stated the 

reasons for requesting a postponement 

of the preliminary determinations, and 

Commerce finds there are no compelling 

reasons to deny the request. Therefore, 

in accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) 

of the Act, Commerce is postponing the 

deadline for the preliminary 

determinations to no later than 130 days 

after the day on which these 

investigations were initiated, i.e., March 

25, 2024.5 Pursuant to section 705(a)(1) 

of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the 

deadline for the final determinations of 

these investigations will continue to be 

75 days after the date of the preliminary 

determinations. 

This notice is issued and published 

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 6, 2023, Commerce published 

the Preliminary Results.1 We invited 

interested parties to comment on the 

Preliminary Results.2 For events 

subsequent to the Preliminary Results, 

see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum.3 On September 22, 2023, 

in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A)

(the Act), Commerce extended the 

deadline for these final results until 

December 1, 2023.4

Scope of the Order 5

The products covered by this Order

non-refillable steel cylinders meeting 

the requirements of, or produced to 

meet the requirements of, U.S. 

Department of Transportation (USDOT) 

Specification 39, TransportCanada 

Specification 39M, or United Nations 

pressure receptacle standard ISO 11118. 

A full description of the scope of the 

Order is provided in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised by interested parties 

in briefs are addressed in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

issues addressed in the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum is provided in 

the appendix to this notice. The Issues 

and Decision Memorandum is a public 

document and 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. In addition, a complete 

version of the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum can be accessed at 

https://access.trade.gov/public/ 

FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received from interested 

parties regarding our Preliminary 

Results, we made certain changes to the 

margin calculation for mandatory 

respondent Wuyi Xilinde Machinery 

Manufacture Co., Ltd. (Wuyi Xilinde), 

and consequently, the rate assigned to 

the non-examined separate rate 

respondents.6 For detailed information, 

see the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Final Determination of No Shipments 

In the Preliminary Results, we 

preliminarily determined that Zhejiang 

Kin-Shine Technology Co., Ltd. 

(Zhejiang Kin-Shine) had no shipments 

of subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR.7 No party filed 

comments with respect to this 

preliminary determination, and we 

received no information to contradict it. 

Therefore, we continue to find that 

Zhejiang Kin-Shine had no shipments of 

subject merchandise during the POR 

and will issue appropriate liquidation 

instructions that are consistent with our 

‘‘automatic assessment’’ instructions for 

these final results.8

Separate Rate Respondents 

In our Preliminary Results, we 

determined that Wuyi Xilinde, and two 

other companies demonstrated their 

eligibility for separate rates.9 We 

received no information or arguments 

since the issuance of the Preliminary 

Results that provide a basis for 

reconsideration of these determinations. 

Therefore, for these final results, we 

continue to find that the two companies 

listed in the table in the ‘‘Final Results’’ 

section of this notice are each eligible 

for a separate rate, in addition to Wuyi 

Xilinde.
