Background

    On March 29, 2013, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen 
warmwater shrimp (``shrimp'') from the People's Republic of China 
(``PRC'') covering the period February 1, 2012 through January 31, 
2013.\1\ On May 24, 2013, the Department selected Zhanjiang Regal 
Integrated Marine Resources Co., Ltd., (``Regal'') as a mandatory 
respondent.\2\ On September 12, 2013, the Department published the 
final results of the seventh administrative review of shrimp (``AR7'') 
from the PRC, in which the Department revoked the Order \3\ with 
respect to Regal.\4\

Partial Rescission

    Because the Department revoked the Order with respect to Regal 
effective February 1, 2012,\5\ entries made by Regal on or after that 
date are not subject to the Order. Therefore, we are rescinding this 
review with respect to Regal.

Assessment Rates

    Pursuant to the AR7 Final Results, the Department instructed 
Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to terminate the suspension of 
liquidation for subject merchandise exported by Regal that was entered, 
or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or after February 1, 
2012, and instructed CBP to refund, with interest, any cash deposits 
for such entries. We intend to send instructions to CBP to notify them 
that this review is rescinded with respect to Regal.

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review is being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, 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.

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

     Dated: October 25, 2013.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
