SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On February 1, 2005, 

the Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) issued antidumping duty 

orders on imports of frozen warmwater 

shrimp from China, India, Thailand, and 

Vietnam (70 FR 5145–5156). Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty orders on imports of 

frozen warmwater shrimp from China, 

India, Thailand, and Vietnam following 

the first five-year reviews by Commerce 

and the Commission, effective April 29, 

2011 (76 FR 23972), and the second 

five-year reviews, effective June 1, 2017 

(82 FR 25242). The Commission is now 

conducting third reviews pursuant to 

section 751(c) of the Act, as amended 

(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), to determine 

whether revocation of the orders would 

be likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of material injury to the 

domestic industry within a reasonably 

foreseeable time. Provisions concerning 

the conduct of this proceeding may be 

found in the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure at 19 CFR part 

201, subparts A and B, and 19 CFR part 

207, subparts A and F. The Commission 

will assess the adequacy of interested 

party responses to this notice of 

institution to determine whether to 

conduct full or expedited reviews. The 

Commission’s determinations in any 

expedited reviews will be based on the 

facts available, which may include 

information provided in response to this 

notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to these reviews: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

scope of the five-year reviews, as 

defined by Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Countries in these 

reviews are China, India, Thailand, and 

Vietnam. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its original 

affirmative determinations and its full 

first and second five-year review 

determinations, the Commission 

defined a single Domestic Like Product 

encompassing fresh warmwater shrimp 

and those frozen warmwater shrimp 

products described in Commerce’s 

scope definition. Certain Commissioners 

defined the Domestic Like Product 

differently in the original 

determinations. 

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. 

producers as a whole of the Domestic 

Like Product, or those producers whose 

collective output of the Domestic Like 

Product constitutes a major proportion 

of the total domestic production of the 

product. In its original affirmative 

determinations and its full first and 

second five-year review determinations, 

the Commission defined the Domestic 

Industry to consist of: (1) All entities 

that harvest fresh warmwater shrimp 

(i.e., fishermen and shrimp farmers) and 

(2) all processors of frozen shrimp 

products within the scope definition, 

except for firms that do not engage in 

sufficient production-related activities 

to be considered domestic producers. 

The Commission found that processing 

activities such as deheading, grading, 

machine peeling, deveining, and 

cooking all constitute domestic 

production but that marinating and 

skewering did not constitute domestic 

production. The Commission also 

concluded that breading did not 

constitute domestic production activity 

because breaded shrimp was not part of 

the Domestic Like Product. In addition, 

five firms were excluded by the 

Commission from the Domestic Industry 

pursuant to the related parties provision 

in the original determinations and one 

firm was excluded from the Domestic 

Industry in the full first five-year review 

determinations. 

(5) An Importer is any person or firm 

engaged, either directly or through a 

parent company or subsidiary, in 

importing the Subject Merchandise into 

the United States from a foreign 

manufacturer or through its selling 

agent. 

Participation in the proceeding and 

public service list.—Persons, including 

industrial users of the Subject 

Merchandise and, if the merchandise is 

sold at the retail level, representative 

consumer organizations, wishing to 

participate in the proceeding as parties 

must file an entry of appearance with 

the Secretary to the Commission, as 

provided in § 201.11(b)(4) of the 

Commission’s rules, no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
25666 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 84 / Monday, May 2, 2022 / Notices 

the Federal Register. The Secretary will 

maintain a public service list containing 

the names and addresses of all persons, 

or their representatives, who are parties 

to the proceeding. 

Former Commission employees who 

are seeking to appear in Commission 

five-year reviews are advised that they 

may appear in a review even if they 

participated personally and 

substantially in the corresponding 

underlying original investigation or an 

earlier review of the same underlying 

investigation. The Commission’s 

designated agency ethics official has 

advised that a five-year review is not the 

same particular matter as the underlying 

original investigation, and a five-year 

review is not the same particular matter 

as an earlier review of the same 

underlying investigation for purposes of 

18 U.S.C. 207, the post-employment 

statute for Federal employees, and 

Commission rule 201.15(b) (19 CFR 

201.15(b)), 79 FR 3246 (Jan. 17, 2014), 

73 FR 24609 (May 5, 2008). 

Consequently, former employees are not 

required to seek Commission approval 

to appear in a review under Commission 

rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the 

corresponding underlying original 

investigation or an earlier review of the 

same underlying investigation was 

pending when they were Commission 

employees. For further ethics advice on 

this matter, contact Charles Smith, 

Office of the General Counsel, at 202– 

205–3408.

proprietary information (BPI) under an 

administrative protective order (APO) 

and APO service list.—Pursuant to 

§ 207.7(a) of the Commission’s rules, the 

Secretary will make BPI submitted in 

this proceeding available to authorized 

applicants under the APO issued in the 

proceeding, provided that the 

application is made no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. Authorized 

applicants must represent interested 

parties, as defined in 19 U.S.C. 1677(9), 

who are parties to the proceeding. A 

separate service list will be maintained 

by the Secretary for those parties 

authorized to receive BPI under the 

APO. 

Certification.—Pursuant to § 207.3 of 

the Commission’s rules, any person 

submitting information to the 

Commission in connection with this 

proceeding must certify that the

of this or a related proceeding, or (b) in 

internal investigations, audits, reviews, 

and evaluations relating to the 

programs, personnel, and operations of 

the Commission including under 5 

U.S.C. Appendix 3; or (ii) by U.S. 

government employees and contract 

personnel, solely for cybersecurity

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On December 30, 1992, 

the Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) issued antidumping duty 

orders on imports of certain welded 

stainless steel pipe from South Korea 

(57 FR 62301) and Taiwan (57 FR 

62300). Commerce issued a 

continuation of the antidumping duty 

orders on certain welded stainless steel 

pipe from South Korea and Taiwan 

following Commerce’s and the 

Commission’s first five-year reviews, 

effective October 16, 2000 (65 FR 

61143), second five-year reviews, 

effective August 28, 2006 (71 FR 53412, 

September 11, 2006), third five-year 

reviews, effective December 19, 2011 

(76 FR 78614), and fourth five-year 

reviews, effective June 30, 2017 (82 FR 

29827). The Commission is now 

conducting fifth reviews pursuant to 

section 751(c) of the Act, as amended 

(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), to determine 

whether revocation of the orders would 

be likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of material injury to the 

domestic industry within a reasonably 

foreseeable time. Provisions concerning 

the conduct of this proceeding may be 

found in the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure at 19 CFR part 

201, subparts A and B, and 19 CFR part 

207, subparts A and F. The Commission 

will assess the adequacy of interested 

party responses to this notice of 

institution to determine whether to 

conduct full or expedited reviews. The 

Commission’s determinations in any 

expedited reviews will be based on the 

facts available, which may include 

information provided in response to this 

notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to these reviews: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

scope of the five-year reviews, as 

defined by Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Countries in these 

reviews are South Korea and Taiwan. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its original 

determinations and full first five-year 

review determinations, the Commission 

defined the Domestic Like Product as all 

welded stainless steel pipes and 

pressure tubes, excluding grade 409 

tubes and mechanical tubes (also known 

as ornamental tubes), a product broader 

than Commerce’s scope description. 

Thus, in addition to welded 

ASTM A–312 stainless steel pipe, the 

Domestic Like Product included such 

tubular products as ASTM A–778 and 

A–358 pipes and ASTM A–249, A–269,
