D/B/A Thanh Hung Frozen Seafood Processing Import Export Co., Ltd. (“Thanh Hung”).[1]              The period of review (“POR”) is August 1, 2012, through July 31, 2013.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Background

On December 3, 2014, the Department published the *Final Rescission* of this NSR. After reviewing the *Final Rescission,* the Department independently determined that it made a ministerial error, as described below.

## Scope of the Order

The product covered by the order is frozen fish fillets, including regular,       ( print page 208)    shank, and strip fillets and portions thereof, whether or not breaded or marinated, of the species *Pangasius Bocourti, Pangasius Hypophthalmus* (also known as *Pangasius Pangasius*) and *Pangasius Micronemus.* These products are classifiable under tariff article codes 0304.29.6033, 0304.62.0020, 0305.59.0000, 0305.59.4000, 1604.19.2000, 1604.19.2100, 1604.19.3000, 1604.19.3100, 1604.19.4000, 1604.19.4100, 1604.19.5000, 1604.19.5100, 1604.19.6100 and 1604.19.8100 (Frozen Fish Fillets of the species *Pangasius* including basa and tra) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”).[2]            Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of the order is dispositive.

For a full description of the scope, see “New Shipper Review of Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Ministerial Error Memorandum,” dated concurrently with and hereby adopted by this notice (“Ministerial Error Memo”).

## Ministerial Errors

Section 751(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), and 19 CFR 351.224(f) define a “ministerial error” as an error “in addition, subtraction, or other arithmetic function, clerical error resulting from inaccurate copying, duplication, or the like, and any similar type of unintentional error which the Secretary considers ministerial.” After reviewing the *Final Rescission,* the Department has determined that it incorrectly stated that the Vietnam-wide rate is 2.39 U.S. dollars per kilogram (“kg”). The correct Vietnam-wide rate is 2.11 U.S. dollars per kg.[3]            For a detailed discussion of this ministerial error, as well as the Department's analysis, *see* the Ministerial Error Memo.

In accordance with section 751(h) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e), we are amending the *Final Rescission* of the new shipper review of fish fillets from Vietnam. The revised cash deposit dumping rate is detailed below.

## Amended Cash Deposit Rate for the New Shipper Review

The following amended cash deposit requirements apply for all shipments of subject merchandise from Thanh Hung entered or withdrawn from warehouse: (1) For subject merchandise produced and exported by Thanh Hung, the cash deposit rate will be the Vietnam-wide rate (*i.e.,* 2.11 U.S. dollars per kg); (2) for subject merchandise exported by Thanh Hung but not manufactured by Thanh Hung, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the Vietnam-wide rate (*i.e.,* 2.11 U.S. dollars per kg); and (3) for subject merchandise manufactured by Thanh Hung, but exported by any other party, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the exporter. These cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice.

## Reimbursement of Duties

This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this POR. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

## Administrative Protective Order

This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to Administrative Protective Order (“APO”) of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanction.

These amended final results are published in accordance with sections 751(h) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Dated: December 29, 2014.

Paul Piquado,

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
