SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 24, 2014, the Department published the AR8 Final 
Results, and on November 4, 2014, it published the AR8 Amended Final 
Results.\1\ In Tri Union I, the CIT granted our request for a voluntary 
remand on the issue of the labor surrogate value.\2\ In Remand I, the 
Department determined that wage rate data from the Bangladeshi Bureau 
of Statistics (BBS) were not aberrational and constituted the best 
available information for valuing labor.\3\ Subsequently, in the Remand 
II Opinion and Order, the CIT remanded this issue again to the 
Department.\4\

States, Court No. 14-00249, Slip Op. 17-71 (June 13, 2017) (Remand 
II Opinion and Order) at 24-25.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In light of the Court's Remand II Opinion and Order, we evaluated 
the record evidence and reconsidered our determination that the 
Bangladeshi data are the best available information. Consequently, we 
concluded that the BBS data are not the best available information on 
the record with which to value the respondents' labor. Instead, we 
determined to use Indian data on the record as a surrogate value for 
labor.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Final Results of Redetermination Pursuant to Court 
Remand, dated July 25, 2017 (Remand II) at 11-12; available at: 
http://enforcement.trade.gov/remands/17-71.pdf. See also the 
petitioner's submission re: ``Comments on Surrogate Country 
Selection,'' dated August 30, 2013, and the petitioner's submission

and Value Selection,'' dated April 28, 2014 at Exhibit 8. See also 
Memorandum to the File, re: ``Draft Remand II Redetermination--Draft 
Remand II Recalculations,'' dated July 5, 2017 (Draft Remand 
Recalculations).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the AR8 Final Results, we calculated a 9.75 percent weighted-
average margin for Soc Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company, unchanged in 
AR8 Amended Final Results.\6\ Based on our change of the labor 
surrogate value in Remand II, we calculated a 10.48 percent weighted-
average margin for Soc Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company.\7\ We intend 
to liquidate Soc Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company's enjoined entries 
of subject merchandise at the importer-specific assessment rates 
revised pursuant to Remand II and identified within the Draft Remand 
Recalculations.

Redetermination--Draft Remand II Recalculations,'' dated July 5, 
2017 (Draft Remand Recalculations) at Attachment 3 and 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Further, we adjusted the Minh Phu Group's final margin from 4.98 
percent \8\ to 5.48 percent,\9\ for the sole purpose of recalculating 
the separate rate for the non-individually examined companies that 
received a separate rate and are parties to this litigation; however, 
there is no effect to the Minh Phu Group's final margin of 4.98 percent 
in the AR8 Final Results unchanged in AR8 Amended Final Results.\10\ 
The Department recalculated the separate rate resulting in a weighted-
average dumping margin of 6.94 percent for the non-individually 
examined companies that qualified for a separate rate and are subject 
to this litigation.\11\ We intend to liquidate these companies' 
enjoined entries of subject merchandise at this revised rate of 6.94 
percent at the completion of this litigation.

Final Results, 79 FR at 65378.
    \9\ See Draft Remand Recalculations at Attachments 1 and 2.
    \10\ Since the issuance of the AR8 Final Results, the Department 
has revoked the antidumping duty order with respect to the Minh Phu 
Group. Moreover, the Minh Phu Group is not subject to this 
litigation, the original injunction enjoining the lifting of 
suspension has been lifted, and the suspended entries have been 
liquidated. See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from the Socialist 
Republic of Vietnam: Notice of Implementation of Determination Under 
Section 129 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act and Partial 
Revocation of the Antidumping Duty Order, 81 FR 47756, 47757-47758

companies that are subject to this litigation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken,\12\ as clarified by Diamond 
Sawblades,\13\ the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant to section 
516A(e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the Department 
must publish a notice of a court decision that is not ``in harmony'' 
with a Department determination and must suspend liquidation of entries 
pending a ``conclusive'' court decision.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337, 341 (Fed. 
Cir. 1990) (Timken).
    \13\ See Diamond Sawblades Mfrs. Coalition v. United States, 626 
F.3d 1374 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (Diamond Sawblades).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This notice is published in fulfillment of the publication 
requirement of Timken. Accordingly, the Department will continue the 
suspension of liquidation of the subject merchandise at issue in the 
Remand II pending expiration of the period to appeal or, if appealed, a 
final and conclusive court decision.

Amended Final Results

    Because there is now a final court decision, the Department is 
amending the AR8 Amended Final Results. Based on Remand II, as affirmed 
by the Court on August 8, 2017, the revised weighted-average dumping 
margin for Soc Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company for the period 
February 1, 2012, through January 31, 2013, is 10.48 percent. The 
margin for the non-individually examined respondents that received a 
separate rate in the AR8 Final Results and are subject to this 
litigation is 6.94 percent.
    In the event that the CIT's ruling is not appealed or, if appealed, 
is upheld

[[Page 39761]]

by a final and conclusive court decision, the Department will instruct 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping duties on 
unliquidated entries of subject merchandise based on the importer-
specific assessment rates re-calculated in Remand II for Soc Trang 
Seafood Joint Stock Company and the above-noted 6.94 percent 
recalculated separate rate for the non-individually examined 
respondents that received a separate rate in the AR8 Final Results and 
are subject to this litigation.

Cash Deposit Requirements

Mandatory Respondent

    Because there have been subsequent administrative reviews for Soc 
Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company, the cash deposit rate for Soc Trang 
Seafood Joint Stock Company will remain the rate established in the 
most recently-completed administrative review in which it received a 
cash deposit rate of 4.78 percent.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from the Socialist 
Republic of Vietnam: Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 2014-2015, 81 FR 62717, 62718-62719 
(September 12, 2016) (AR10 Final Results). Soc Trang Seafood Joint 
Stock Company was granted the following ``also-known-as'' (aka) or 
``doing-business-as'' (dba) names in AR8 Final Results (which were 
included in the injunction enjoining liquidation of suspended 
entries): Soc Trang Seafood Joint Stock Company, aka Stapimex, aka 
Soc Trang Aquatic Products and General Import Export Company, aka 
Soc Trang Aquatic Products and General Import Export Company 
(``Stapimex''), aka Stapmex. However, many of these names were not 
granted separate rate status in AR10 Final Results. Thus, for 
liquidation purposes, we will continue to use Soc Trang Seafood 
Joint Stock Company's aforementioned aka/dba names; but for cash 
deposit purposes, only the aka and/or dba names granted in AR10 
Final Results are valid.
    \15\ Many of the aka or dba names subject to the litigation were 
not included in subsequent reviews. Therefore, the aka and/or dba 
names granted separate rate status in subsequent reviews supersede 
those listed above. The names listed above are included here as they 
appear in the injunctions enjoining liquidation pending completion 
of this litigation. Therefore, for liquidation purposes, we will 
continue to use the names above; however, only the aka and/or dba 
names granted in subsequent reviews are valid for cash deposit 
purposes.

2017) (AR11 Final Results).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate-Rate Companies

    There have been subsequent administrative reviews completed for the 
below-listed non-individually examined companies that qualified for a 
separate rate and are subject to this litigation; thus, the cash 
deposit rate for these exporters will remain the rate established in 
the most recently-completed administrative review in which they 
received a cash deposit rate:
