2013-22228. Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 2011-2012

AGENCY:

Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY:

On March 12, 2013, the Department of Commerce (“Department”) published in the Federal Register the Preliminary Results of the seventh administrative review of the antidumping duty Order ^[1] on certain warmwater shrimp from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (“Vietnam”).^[2] Based upon our analysis of the comments and information received, we have determined that Minh Phu Group,^[3] and Nha Trang Seafoods,^[4] the two mandatory respondents, and Quoc Viet,^[5] the voluntary respondent, have not sold subject merchandise at less than normal value during the period of review (“POR”), February 1, 2011, through January 31, 2012. Additionally, the Department has determined not to revoke the Order in part, with respect to Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods.

DATES:

Effective Date: September 12, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On March 12, 2013, the Department published the Preliminary Results. On May 22, 2013, the Department extended the time limit for these final results by 60 days. On April 15, 2013, Petitioner,^[6] Minh Phu Group, and Nha Trang Seafoods, submitted additional surrogate value (“SV”) information. On April 25, 2013, Petitioner, Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods submitted rebuttal SV comments.

We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the Preliminary Results. On May 31, 2013, Petitioner, Domestic Processors,^[7] Quoc Viet, Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods submitted case briefs. On June 5, 2013, Petitioner, Domestic Processors, Quoc Viet, Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods submitted rebuttal briefs.

Scope of the Order

The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater shrimp. The product is currently classified under the following Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States item numbers: 0306.17.00.03, 0306.17.00.06, 0306.17.00.09, 0306.17.00.12, 0306.17.00.15, 0306.17.00.18, 0306.17.00.21, 0306.17.00.24, 0306.17.00.27, 0306.17.00.40, 1605.21.10.30, and 1605.29.10.10. The written description of the scope of the order is dispositive. A full description of the scope of the order is available in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum.^[8]

Analysis of Comments Received

All issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs by parties to this review are addressed in the accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum.^[9] A list of the issues which parties raised, and to which we respond in the Issues and Decision Memorandum is attached to this notice as an Appendix. The Issues and Decision Memorandum is a public document and is on file electronically via Import Administration's Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Centralized Electronic Service System (IA ACCESS). IA ACCESS is available to registered users at http://iaaccess.trade.gov and in the Central Records Unit, Room 7046 of the main Department of Commerce building. In addition, a complete version of the Issues and Decision Memorandum can be accessed directly on the internet at http://www.trade.gov/​ia/​. The signed Issues and Decision Memorandum and electronic versions of the Issues and Decision Memorandum are identical in content.

Final Determination of No Shipments

In the Preliminary Results, the Department preliminarily determined the following companies did not have any reviewable transactions during the POR: Amanda Food (Vietnam) Ltd., Anvifish Joint Stock Company, Bien Dong Seafood Co., Ltd., Binh An Seafood Joint Stock Company, Camranh Seafoods, Thong Thuan Seafood Company, Vietnam Clean Seafood Corporation, and Vinh Hoan Corporation. We have not received any information to contradict this determination. Therefore, the Department has made the final determination that the above-named companies did not have any reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR, and will issue appropriate instructions that are consistent with our “automatic assessment” clarification, for these final results.

Verification

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.307(b)(iv), the Department conducted a verification of Minh Phu Group's sales and factors of production between April 16, 2013 and April 26, 2013.^[10] Based on Minh Phu Group's minor corrections presented to the Department and other findings, the Department requested Minh Phu Group submit revised data.^[11 12]

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

The Department has made changes to certain surrogate values and company-specific margin calculations since the Preliminary Results. Specifically, we changed the surrogate value for domestic cold storage warehousing and the surrogate values for certain export-related expenses incurred by Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang. The Department also made company-specific changes to the margin calculation programs resulting from verification in Minh Phu Group's case, and other programming changes for Minh Phu Group, Nha Trang, and Quoc Viet based on arguments made in case and rebuttal briefs. For detailed information, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum and the company-specific final results analysis memoranda.

Request for Revocation, In Part

In the Preliminary Results, we determined that Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods have not met the regulatory criteria for revocation set forth in 19 CFR 351.222(b).^[13] We have not received any further information following the issuance of the Preliminary Results that would warrant revocation of the order with regard to either Minh Phu Group or Nha Trang Seafoods.^[14] Therefore, we will not revoke the Order with respect to Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods because they have not met the regulatory criteria for revocation set forth in 19 CFR 351.222(b).^[15]

Separate Rates

In the Preliminary Results, we determined that 30 companies ^[16] (“Separate Rate Respondents”) in addition to Minh Phu Group and Nha Trang Seafoods, and the voluntary respondent, Quoc Viet, met the criteria for separate rate status. We have not received any information since the issuance of the Preliminary Results that provides a basis for reconsidering this preliminary determination. Therefore, the Department continues to find that these 33 companies meet the criteria for a separate rate for the final results.

Rate for Non-Selected Companies

For the final results, we continue to calculate zero rates for both mandatory respondents. Therefore, there is no change to the separate rate assigned to the Separate Rate Respondents for the final results of this review, and we continue to determine that a “reasonable method for determining the weighted-average dumping margins for the non-selected respondents in this review is to average the weighted-average dumping margins calculated for the mandatory respondents,” as noted in the Preliminary Results.^[17] For a detailed discussion of the Department's separate rate calculation, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comment 9.

Vietnam-Wide Entity

In the Preliminary Results, we determined that 41 companies failed to demonstrate their eligibility for a separate rate. In NME proceedings, “`rates' may consist of a single dumping margin applicable to all exporters and producers.” ^[18] Therefore, we assigned the Vietnam-wide entity a rate of 25.76 percent, the only rate ever determined for the Vietnam-wide entity in this proceeding. We have not received any information since the Preliminary Results that provides a basis for reconsidering this determination. We, therefore, continue to apply the Vietnam-wide entity rate of 25.76 percent to these 41 companies.^[19]

Disclosure and Public Comment

We will disclose the calculations performed within five days of the date of publication of this notice to parties in this proceeding in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).

Assessment Rates

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”) and 19 CFR 351.212(b), the Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise in accordance with the final results of this review. The Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of these final results of review. In these final results, the Department applied the assessment rate calculation method adopted in Final Modification for Reviews, i.e., on the basis of monthly average-to-average comparisons using only the transactions associated with that importer with offsets being provided for non-dumped comparisons.^[24]

Where we do not have entered values for all U.S. sales to a particular importer/customer, we calculate a per-unit assessment rate by aggregating the antidumping duties due for all U.S. sales to that importer (or customer) and dividing this amount by the total quantity sold to that importer (or customer).^[25] 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 calculated importer- (or customer-) specific ad valorem ratios based on the estimated entered value. Where either a respondent's weighted average dumping margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer- (or customer-) specific ad valorem rate is zero or above de minimis, we will instruct CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.^[26]

Additionally, pursuant to a refinement to its assessment practice in NME cases, if the Department continues to determine that an exporter under review had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries that entered under that exporter's case number (i.e., at that exporter's rate) will be liquidated at the NME-wide rate.^[27]

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following cash deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of the final results of this administrative review for shipments of the subject merchandise from Vietnam entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date, as provided by sections 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the companies listed above, which have a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be that established in the final results of this review (except, if the rate is zero or de minimis, then zero cash deposit will be required); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Vietnam and non-Vietnam exporters not listed above that received a separate rate in a prior segment of this proceeding, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the existing exporter-specific rate; (3) for all Vietnam exporters of subject merchandise that have not been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate will be that for the Vietnam-wide entity; and (4) for all non-Vietnam exporters of subject merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate applicable to the Vietnam exporter that supplied that non-Vietnam exporter. These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

Reimbursement of Duties

This notice also serves as a 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 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 double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Orders

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.

This determination is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(b)(4).

Dated: September 6, 2013.
