SUMMARY: In response to a request from Ngoc Ha Co. Ltd. Food Processing 
and Trading (``Ngoc Ha''), the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated a new shipper review of the antidumping duty 
order on certain frozen fish fillets from the Socialist Republic of 
Vietnam (``Vietnam'') covering the period August 1, 2012, through 
January 31, 2013.\1\ On May 23, 2013, Ngoc Ha withdrew its request for 
a new shipper review. Accordingly, the Department is rescinding the new 
shipper review with respect to Ngoc Ha.

of Vietnam: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review; 2012-
2013, 78 FR 18957 (March 28, 2013) (``Initiation Notice'').

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DATES: Effective July 3, 2013.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alexander Montoro, AD/CVD Operations, 
Office 9, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., 
Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-0238.

Rescission of New Shipper Review

    On May 23, 2013, Ngoc Ha withdrew its new shipper review 
request.\2\ 19 CFR 351.214(f)(1) provides that, the Department may 
rescind a new shipper review, if the party that requested the review 
withdraws its request for review within 60 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. Given 
that Ngoc Ha withdrew its request for a new shipper review 55 days 
after the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the 
requested review, the Department is rescinding the new shipper review 
of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen fish fillets from 
Vietnam with respect to Ngoc Ha. Consequently, Ngoc Ha will remain part 
of the Vietnam-wide entity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See letter from Ngoc Ha entitled ``Certain Frozen Fish 
Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Withdrawal of 
Request for a New Shipper Review,'' dated May 23, 2013.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment

    Because Ngoc Ha remains part of the Vietnam-wide entity, its 
entries may become subject to review if interested parties request an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order of certain frozen 
fish fillets from Vietnam covering the period August 1, 2012, to July 
31, 2013. The opportunity to request an administrative review of 
entries of subject merchandise entered during that period has not yet 
expired. Therefore, the Department will not order liquidation of 
entries for Ngoc Ha. The Department intends to issue liquidation 
instructions for the Vietnam-wide entity, which will cover any entries 
by Ngoc Ha, 15 days after publication of the final results of the 
administrative review covering the period August 1, 2012, to July 31, 
2013, if such a review is requested. If no such review is requested, 
the Department will issue liquidation instructions for the Vietnam-wide 
entity at the appropriate time.

Cash Deposit

    The Department will notify U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') that bonding is no longer permitted to fulfill security 
requirements for subject merchandise produced and exported by Ngoc Ha 
that is entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the 
United States on or after the publication of this rescission notice in 
the Federal Register. The Department will notify CBP that a cash 
deposit of 2.11 U.S. dollars per kilogram should be collected for all 
shipments of subject merchandise by Ngoc Ha entered, or withdrawn from

warehouse, for consumption in the United States on or after the 
publication of this rescission notice.

Notifications to Interested Parties

    This notice 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 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.
    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(a). 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.
    We are issuing and publishing this rescission and notice in 
accordance with sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.214(f)(3).

     Dated: June 26, 2013.

Senior Advisor for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
