SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 12, 2003, the Department published in the Federal 
Register an antidumping duty order covering certain frozen fish fillets 
from Vietnam. See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order: Certain Frozen Fish 
Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, 68 FR 47909 (August 12, 
2003). On August 31, 2006, East Sea Seafoods, requested, in accordance 
with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), and 19 CFR 351.214(d), that the Department a conduct a new 
shipper review of this antidumping duty order covering the period 
August 1, 2005, through July 31, 2006.
    On September 22, 2006, the Department initiated a new shipper 
review of East Sea Seafoods. See Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the 
Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New 
Shipper Review, 71 FR 56953 (September 28, 2006). On November 13, 2006, 
East Sea Seafoods filed a letter withdrawing its request for a new 
shipper review.

Rescission of Review

    19 CFR 351.214(f)(1) states that if a party that requested a new 
shipper review withdraws the request within 60 days of the publication 
of the notice of initiation of the requested review, the Secretary will 
rescind the review. East Sea Seafoods withdrew its new shipper review 
request within the 60-day deadline, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.214(f)(1). Accordingly, we are rescinding this new shipper review 
of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen fish fillets from 
Vietnam for East Sea Seafoods covering the period August 1, 2005, 
through July 31, 2006.

Notification of Interested Parties

    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 the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (``APOs'') 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/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 that is subject to sanction.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(f)(3).

    Dated: January 12, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
