SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On April 7, 2008, the Department of 

Commerce (the Department) published 

notices of initiation of the 

administrative reviews of the 

antidumping duty orders on certain 

frozen warmwater shrimp from Brazil, 

Ecuador, India, Thailand, the People’s 

Republic of China (PRC) and the 

Socialist Republic of Vietnam 

(Vietnam), covering the period February 

1, 2007, through January 31, 2008. See 

Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from 

Brazil, Ecuador, India, and Thailand: 

Notice of Initiation of Administrative 

Reviews, 73 FR 18754 (April 7, 2008); 

and Notice of Initiation of 

Administrative Reviews of the 

Antidumping Duty Orders on Frozen 

Warmwater Shrimp from the Socialist 

Republic of Vietnam and the People’s 

Republic of China, 73 FR 18739 (April 

7, 2008). 

During the period May through 

August 2008, the Department selected 

mandatory respondents in each of the 

above–mentioned administrative 

reviews.1 See the May 27, 2008, 

Memorandum from David Goldberger to 

James Maeder entitled ‘‘2007–2008 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review of Certain Frozen Warmwater 

Shrimp from Ecuador: Selection of 

Respondents for Individual Review’’; 

the May 27, 2008, Memorandum from 

Elizabeth Eastwood to James Maeder 

entitled ‘‘2007–2008 Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review of Certain 

Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from India: 

Selection of Respondents for Individual 

Review’’; the May 27, 2008, 

Memorandum from Irina Itkin to James 

Maeder entitled ‘‘Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review of Certain 

Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from 

Thailand: Selection of Respondents for 

Individual Review;’’ and the June 16, 

2008, Memorandum to James C. Doyle 

from Susan Pulongbarit entitled ‘‘2007– 

2008 Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review of Certain Frozen Warmwater 

Shrimp from the People’s Republic of 

China - Selection of Respondents for 

Individual Review.’’ On August 25, 

2008, we selected an additional 

respondent in the administrative review 

of frozen warmwater shrimp from the 

PRC. See Memorandum to James C. 

Doyle from Erin Begnal entitled ‘‘2007– 

2008 Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review: Frozen Warmwater Shrimp 

from the People’s Republic of China 

Selection of Additional Mandatory 

Respondent.’’ 

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary 

Results 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

the Department to make a preliminary 

determination in an administrative 

review within 245 days after the last day 

of the anniversary month of an order or 

finding for which a review is requested. 

Consistent with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 

the Act, the Department may extend the 

245-day period to 365 days if it is not 

practicable to complete the review 

within a 245-day period. The deadline 

for the preliminary results of these 

reviews is currently October 31, 2008. 

The Department determines that 

completion of the preliminary results of 

these administrative reviews within the 

statutory time period is not practicable. 

We are unable to analyze cost 

allegations as well as third–country 

market issues in the market–economy 

reviews, or issue supplemental 

questionnaires and conduct verification 

in the market and non–market economy 

reviews within the current timeframe. 

The Department thus requires 

additional time to conduct its analysis 

for each company in each of these 

reviews. Therefore, in accordance with 

section 751(a)(3)(A) the Act, we are 

extending the time period for issuing 

the preliminary results of these reviews 

until March 2, 2009.2 The final results 

continue to be due 120 days after the 

publication of the preliminary results. 

This notice is published pursuant to 

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.213(h)(2). 

Dated: October 2, 2008.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration.
