SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 9, 2010, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp from the 
People's Republic of China (``PRC'') covering the period February 1, 
2009 through January 31, 2010. See Notice of Initiation of 
Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part of the 
Antidumping Duty Orders on Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From the 
Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the People's Republic of China, 75 FR 
18154 (April 9, 2010) (``Initiation'').
    On July 6, 2010, the Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action Committee\1\ 
(``Petitioners'') withdrew their request for an administrative review 
of Allied Pacific Aquatic Products Zhanjiang Co. Ltd. and Allied 
Pacific Food (Dalian) Co., Ltd. Petitioners were the only party to 
request a review of these companies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Ad Hoc Shrimp Trade Action Committee (``AHSTAC'') is the 
petitioner in the underlying investigation. The members of AHSTAC 
are: Nancy Edens; Papa Rod, Inc., Carolina Seafoods; Bosarge Boats, 
Inc.; Knight's Seafood Inc.; Big Grapes, Inc.; Versaggi Shrimp Co.; 
and Craig Wallis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. 
Petitioners' request was submitted within the 90 day period and, thus, 
is timely. Because Petitioners' withdrawal of requests for review is 
timely and because no other party requested a review of the 
aforementioned companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we 
are partially rescinding this review with respect to the above listed 
companies.

Assessment Rates

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. As 
the companies for which this review has been rescinded have a separate 
rate, antidumping duties shall be assessed, at rates equal to the cash 
deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, 
or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.212(c)(2). The Department intends to issue appropriate 
assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of 
this notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this 
review is being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, 
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.

Notification Regarding 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/destruction of 
APO materials or conversion to judicial

[[Page 42071]]

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 notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: July 14, 2010.
Edward C. Yang,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
