Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: On March 15, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp (shrimp) from 
Thailand. This review covers 165 producers/exporters of the subject 
merchandise to the United States.\1\ The POR is February 1, 2008, 
through January 31, 2009.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ This figure excludes twenty companies for which we are 
rescinding the review due to the fact that they made no shipments of 
the subject merchandise during the period of review (POR). See 
``Partial Rescission of Review'' section, below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    This review covers 165 producers/exporters. The respondents which 
the Department selected for individual review are Marine Gold, Pakfood, 
and the Rubicon Group. The respondents which were not selected for 
individual review are listed in the ``Final Results of Review'' section 
of this notice.
    On March 15, 2010, the Department published in the Federal Register 
the preliminary results of the 2008-2009 administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on shrimp from Thailand. See Certain Frozen 
Warmwater Shrimp from Thailand: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review and Final Results of Partial Rescission of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 12188 (March 15, 2010) 
(Preliminary Results).
    We invited parties to comment on the preliminary results. In April 
2010, we received case briefs from the domestic producers of the 
subject merchandise (i.e., the Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action Committee), 
the respondents selected for individual review, Marine Gold, Pakfood, 
and the Rubicon Group, the American Shrimp Processors Association and 
the Louisiana Shrimp Association (hereafter, the domestic processors), 
and Xian-Ning Seafood Co., Ltd., Ongkorn Cold Storage Co., Ltd., 
Kongphop Frozen Foods Co., Ltd., May Ao Foods Co., Ltd., and May Ao 
Co., Ltd., who are producers/exporters that were not selected for 
individual review. Rebuttal briefs were received from the domestic 
producers, the domestic processors, Marine Gold, Pakfood, and the 
Rubicon Group. On April 14, 2010, Marine Gold requested that a public

[[Page 54848]]

hearing be held in this proceeding. On April 20, 2010, Marine Gold 
withdrew its hearing request.
    In June 2010 we extended the deadline for the final results, due no 
later than September 13, 2010. See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from 
Thailand: Notice of Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results of 
the 2008-2009 Administrative Review, 75 FR 34976 (June 21, 2010).
    The Department has conducted this administrative review in 
accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act).

Scope of the Order

    The scope of this order includes certain frozen warmwater shrimp 
and prawns, whether wild-caught (ocean harvested) or farm-raised 
(produced by aquaculture), head-on or head-off, shell-on or peeled, 
tail-on or tail-off,\3\ deveined or not deveined, cooked or raw, or 
otherwise processed in frozen form.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ ``Tails'' in this context means the tail fan, which includes 
the telson and the uropods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The frozen warmwater shrimp and prawn products included in the 
scope of this order, regardless of definitions in the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), are products which are processed 
from warmwater shrimp and prawns through freezing and which are sold in 
any count size.
    The products described above may be processed from any species of 
warmwater shrimp and prawns. Warmwater shrimp and prawns are generally 
classified in, but are not limited to, the Penaeidae family. Some 
examples of the farmed and wild-caught warmwater species include, but 
are not limited to, whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannemei), banana prawn 
(Penaeus merguiensis), fleshy prawn (Penaeus chinensis), giant river 
prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), giant tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon), 
redspotted shrimp (Penaeus brasiliensis), southern brown shrimp 
(Penaeus subtilis), southern pink shrimp (Penaeus notialis), southern 
rough shrimp (Trachypenaeus curvirostris), southern white shrimp 
(Penaeus schmitti), blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris), western white 
shrimp (Penaeus occidentalis), and Indian white prawn (Penaeus 
indicus).
    Frozen shrimp and prawns that are packed with marinade, spices or 
sauce are included in the scope of this order. In addition, food 
preparations, which are not ``prepared meals,'' that contain more than 
20 percent by weight of shrimp or prawn are also included in the scope 
of this order.
    Excluded from the scope are: (1) Breaded shrimp and prawns (HTSUS 
subheading 1605.20.10.20); (2) shrimp and prawns generally classified 
in the Pandalidae family and commonly referred to as coldwater shrimp, 
in any state of processing; (3) fresh shrimp and prawns whether shell-
on or peeled (HTSUS subheadings 0306.23.00.20 and 0306.23.00.40); (4) 
shrimp and prawns in prepared meals (HTSUS subheading 1605.20.05.10); 
(5) dried shrimp and prawns; (6) canned warmwater shrimp and prawns 
(HTSUS subheading 1605.20.10.40); (7) certain dusted shrimp; and (8) 
certain battered shrimp. Dusted shrimp is a shrimp-based product: (1) 
That is produced from fresh (or thawed-from-frozen) and peeled shrimp; 
(2) to which a ``dusting'' layer of rice or wheat flour of at least 95 
percent purity has been applied; (3) with the entire surface of the 
shrimp flesh thoroughly and evenly coated with the flour; (4) with the 
non-shrimp content of the end product constituting between four and 10 
percent of the product's total weight after being dusted, but prior to 
being frozen; and (5) that is subjected to IQF freezing immediately 
after application of the dusting layer. Battered shrimp is a shrimp-
based product that, when dusted in accordance with the definition of 
dusting above, is coated with a wet viscous layer containing egg and/or 
milk, and par-fried.
    The products covered by this order are currently classified under 
the following HTSUS subheadings: 0306.13.00.03, 0306.13.00.06, 
0306.13.00.09, 0306.13.00.12, 0306.13.00.15, 0306.13.00.18, 
0306.13.00.21, 0306.13.00.24, 0306.13.00.27, 0306.13.00.40, 
1605.20.10.10, and 1605.20.10.30. These HTSUS subheadings are provided 
for convenience and for customs purposes only and are not dispositive, 
but rather the written description of the scope of this order is 
dispositive.

Period of Review

    The POR is February 1, 2008, through January 31, 2009. See Footnote 
2.

Partial Rescission of Review

    In the Preliminary Results, we stated our intention to rescind the 
review with respect to the following companies, which reported to the 
Department that they had no shipments during the POR:
    (1) American Commercial Transport, Inc.
    (2) Ampai Frozen Food Co., Ltd.
    (3) Euro-Asian International Seafoods Co., Ltd.
    (4) F.A.I.T. Corporation Limited
    (5) Far East Cold Storage, Ltd.
    (6) Grobest Frozen Foods Co., Ltd.
    (7) Inter-Oceanic Resources Co., Ltd.
    (8) Leo Transport Corporation, Ltd.
    (9) Lucky Unions Foods Co., Ltd.
    (10) MKF Interfood (2004) Co., Ltd.
    (11) Siam Canadian Foods Co., Ltd.
    (12) Siam Ocean Frozen Foods Co., Ltd.
    (13) Sky Fresh Co., Ltd.
    (14) Songkla Canning (PCL)
    (15) Suree Interfoods Co., Ltd.
    (16) Thai Excel Foods Co., Ltd.
    (17) Thai Union Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
    (18) Thai Yoo Ltd., Part.
    (19) V. Thai Food Product Co., Ltd.
    (20) Wann Fisheries Co., Ltd.
    Since the Preliminary Results we have received no comments 
regarding our stated intention to rescind the review for each of the 
firms listed above. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this review 
with respect to the 20 firms listed above.

Cost of Production

    As discussed in the Preliminary Results, we conducted an 
investigation to determine whether Marine Gold, Pakfood, and the 
Rubicon Group made comparison market sales of the foreign like product 
during the POR at prices below their costs of production (COP) within 
the meaning of section 773(b) of the Act. For all three respondents, we 
performed the cost test for these final results following the same 
methodology as in the Preliminary Results.
    We found 20 percent or more of each respondent's sales of a given 
product during the reporting period were at prices less than the 
weighted-average COP for this period. Thus, we determined that these 
below-cost sales were made in ``substantial quantities'' within an 
extended period of time and at prices which did not permit the recovery 
of all costs within a reasonable period of time in the normal course of 
trade. See sections 773(b)(1)-(2) of the Act.
    Therefore, for purposes of these final results, we continue to find 
that Marine Gold, Pakfood, and the Rubicon Group made below-cost sales 
not in the ordinary course of trade. Consequently, we disregarded these 
sales for each respondent and used the remaining sales as the basis for 
determining normal value pursuant to section 773(b)(1) of the Act. For 
those U.S. sales of subject merchandise for which there were no 
comparison market sales in the ordinary course of trade, we compared 
constructed export prices or export prices, as appropriate, to 
constructed value in accordance with section 773(a)(4) of the Act.

Assessment

    The Department shall determine, and CBP shall assess, antidumping 
duties on all appropriate entries.
    For those sales where the respondents reported the entered value of 
their U.S. sales, we have 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 examined sales for that importer. For those sales where the 
respondents did not report the entered value of their U.S. sales, we 
have calculated importer-specific or customer-specific per-unit duty 
assessment rates by aggregating the total amount of antidumping duties 
calculated for the examined sales and dividing this amount by the total 
quantity of those sales. With respect to the respondents' U.S. sales of 
shrimp with sauce, for which no entered value was reported, we have 
included the total quantity of the merchandise with sauce in the 
denominator of the calculation of the importer-specific or customer-
specific rate because CBP will apply the per-unit duty rate to the 
total quantity of merchandise entered, including the sauce weight. To 
determine whether the duty assessment rates are de minimis, in 
accordance with the requirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we 
have calculated importer-specific or customer-specific ad valorem 
ratios based on the estimated entered value.
    For the companies which were not selected for individual review, we 
have calculated an assessment rate based on the weighted average of the 
cash deposit rates calculated for the companies selected for individual 
review excluding any which are de minimis or determined entirely on 
facts available. See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From Thailand: 
Final Results and Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review, 74 FR 47551 (September 16, 2009).
    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we will instruct CBP to liquidate 
without regard to antidumping duties any entries for which the 
assessment rate is de minimis (i.e., less than 0.50 percent). The 
Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after the date of publication of these final results of review.
    The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on 
May 6, 2003. See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: 
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003) (Assessment 
Policy Notice). This clarification will apply to entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR produced by companies included in these 
final results of review for which the reviewed companies did not know 
that the merchandise they sold to the intermediary (e.g., a reseller, 
trading company, or exporter) was destined for the United States. In 
such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at 
the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation if there is 
no rate for the intermediary involved in the transaction. See 
Assessment Policy Notice for a full discussion of this clarification.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    The following cash deposit requirements will be effective for all 
shipments of the 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 each specific 
company listed above \5\ will be the rates shown above, except if the 
rate is less than 0.50 percent, and therefore, de minimis within the 
meaning of 19 CFR 351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash deposit rate 
will be zero; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not 
participating in this review, the cash deposit rate will continue to be 
the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if 
the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or 
the original LTFV 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 be 5.34 percent, the all-
others rate made effective by the Section 129 Determination. These 
requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further 
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 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 
Warmwater Shrimp from Thailand, 74 FR 5638 (January 30, 2009) 
(Section 129 Determination). These producers/exporters are as 
follows: Andaman Seafood Co., Ltd., Chanthaburi Frozen Food Co., 
Ltd., Chanthaburi Seafoods Co., Ltd., Intersia Foods Co., Ltd. 
(formerly Y2K Frozen Foods Co., Ltd.), Phatthana Seafood Co., Ltd., 
S.C.C. Frozen Seafood Co., Ltd., Thailand Fishery Cold Storage 
Public Co., Ltd., Thai International Seafoods Co., Ltd., Wales & Co. 
Universe Limited, and Thai I-Mei Frozen Foods Co., Ltd.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final 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 to Interested Parties

    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.
    We are issuing and publishing these final results of review in 
accordance

[[Page 54851]]

with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: August 31, 2010.
