order on certain frozen fish fillets from the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam (``Vietnam'') covering the period August 1, 2012, through

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,

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.

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that is entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption in the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
[[Page 40101]]
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.
