SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 7, 2016, Avanti Frozen requested that the Department 
conduct an expedited changed circumstances review, pursuant to section 
751(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act), 19 CFR 351.216(b), and 19 
CFR 351.221(c)(3), to confirm that Avanti Frozen is the successor-in-
interest to Avanti Feeds for purposes of determining antidumping duty 
cash deposits and liabilities. In its submission, Avanti Frozen 
explained that Avanti Feeds underwent a business reorganization and 
transferred its shrimp business to its subsidiary company, Avanti 
Frozen.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Letter from Avanti Frozen entitled ``Frozen Warmwater 
Shrimp form India: Request to Initiate a Successor-in-Interest 
Changed Circumstances Review,'' dated September 7, 2016, at 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 31, 2016, the Department initiated this changed 
circumstances review and published the notice of preliminary results, 
determining that Avanti Frozen is the successor-in-interest to Avanti 
Feeds.\2\ In the Initiation and Preliminary Results, we provided all 
interested parties with an opportunity to comment and request a public 
hearing regarding our preliminary finding that Avanti Frozen is the 
successor-in-interest to Avanti Feeds. We received no comments from 
interested parties
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances 
Review, 81 FR 75376 (October 31, 2016) (Initiation and Preliminary 
Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater 
shrimp.\3\ The product is currently classified under the following 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) item numbers: 
0306.17.00.03, 0306.17.00.06, 0306.17.00.09, 0306.17.00.12, 
0306.17.00.15, 0306.17.00.18, 0306.17.00.21, 0306.17.00.24, 
0306.17.00.27, 0306.17.00.40, 1605.21.10.30, and 1605.29.10.10. 
Although the HTSUS numbers are provided for convenience and customs 
purposes, the written product description remains dispositive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ For a complete description of the Scope of the Order, see 
Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp From India: Final Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review; Final Determination of No 
Shipments; 2014-2015, 81 FR 62867 (September 13, 2016) (10th AR), 
and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum at ``Scope.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 Avanti Frozen is the 
successor-in-interest to Avanti Feeds. As a result of this 
determination, we find that Avanti Frozen should receive the cash 
deposit rate previously assigned to Avanti Feeds in the most recently-
completed review of the antidumping duty order on shrimp from India.\4\ 
Consequently, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject 
merchandise produced or exported by Avanti Frozen and entered, or 
withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication 
date of this notice in the Federal Register at 2.20 percent, which is 
the current antidumping duty cash-deposit rate for Avanti Feeds.\5\ 
This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further 
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See, e.g., Final Results of Antidumping Duty Changed 
Circumstances Review: Certain Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe 
and Tube from Mexico, 74 FR 41681, 41682 (August 18, 2009).
    \5\ Avanti Feeds was assigned a 2.20 percent dumping margin in 
the 2014-2015 administrative review of the AD order on shrimp from 
India. See 10th AR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We are issuing this determination and publishing these final 
results and notice in accordance with sections 751(b)(1) and 777(i)(1) 
and (2) of the Act, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.216 and 351.221(c)(3).
