Department) initiated a changed circumstances review and published a
notice of preliminary results of changed circumstances review of the
antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp (shrimp) from

Premier Marine Products (PMP) for purposes of determining antidumping
duty cash deposits and liabilities. No interested party submitted
comments on, or requested a public hearing to discuss, the Initiation

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 22, 2014, PPL requested that the Department conduct an
expedited changed circumstances review under 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(iii)
to confirm that PPL is the successor-in-interest to PMP for purposes of
determining antidumping duty cash deposits and liabilities.
On October 10, 2014, the Department initiated this changed
circumstances review and published the notice of preliminary results,
determining that PPL is the successor-in-interest to PMP. See
Initiation and Preliminary Results, 79 FR at 61290. In the Initiation
and Preliminary Results, we provided all
[[Page 71385]]
interested parties with an opportunity to comment or request a public
hearing regarding our preliminary finding that PPL is the successor-in-
interest to PMP. We received no comments or requests for a public
hearing from interested parties within the time period set forth in the
Initiation and Preliminary Results.
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater
shrimp.\2\ The product is currently classified under the following
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) item numbers:
0306.17.0003, 0306.17.0006, 0306.17.0009, 0306.17.0012, 0306.17.0015,
0306.17.0018, 0306.17.0021, 0306.17.0024, 0306.17.0027, 0306.17.0040,
1605.21.1030, and 1605.29.1010. Although the HTSUS numbers are provided
for convenience and customs purposes, the written product description
remains dispositive.

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review
For the reasons stated in the Initiation and Preliminary Results,
and because we received no comments from interested parties to the
contrary, the Department continues to find that PPL is the successor-
in-interest to PMP. As a result of this determination, we find that PPL
should receive the cash deposit rate previously assigned to PMP, as a
part of the Liberty Group of companies, in the most recently completed
review of the antidumping duty order on shrimp from India.\3\
Consequently, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border
Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject
merchandise produced and/or exported by PPL and entered, or withdrawn
from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of
this notice in the Federal Register at 2.49 percent, which is the
current antidumping duty cash deposit rate for PMP, as a part of the
Liberty Group.\4\ This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect
until further notice.
