SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:.

Background

    On February 1, 2005, Commerce published in the Federal Register an 
antidumping duty order on shrimp from India.\1\ On June 13, 2018, CAPL 
requested that, pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.216(b), Commerce conduct an 
expedited changed circumstances review of the Order to confirm that 
CAPL is the successor-in-interest to Coastal Aqua and, accordingly, to 
assign it the cash deposit rate of Coastal Aqua.\2\ In its submission, 
CAPL explained that Coastal Aqua undertook a business reorganization 
and transferred its shrimp business to CAPL.\3\ The domestic industry 
did not file any comments on this request.

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater 
shrimp.\4\ 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ For a complete description of the Scope of the Order, see 
12th AR, and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum at ``Scope 
of the Order.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Initiation and Preliminary Results

    Pursuant to section 751(b)(1) of the Act, Commerce will conduct a 
changed circumstances review upon receipt of information concerning, or 
a request from, an interested party for a review of an antidumping duty 
order which shows changed circumstances sufficient to warrant a review 
of the order. As indicated in the ``Background'' section, we received 
information indicating that Coastal Aqua transferred its shrimp 
business to CAPL. This constitutes changed circumstances warranting a 
review of the order.\5\ Therefore, in accordance with section 751(b)(1) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.216(d) and (e), we are initiating a changed 
circumstances review based upon the information contained in CAPL's 
submission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See 19 CFR 351.216(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 351.221(c)(3)(ii) of Commerce's regulations permits 
Commerce to combine the notice of initiation of a changed circumstances 
review and the notice of preliminary results if Commerce concludes that 
expedited action is warranted.\6\ In this instance, because the record 
contains information necessary to make a preliminary finding, we find 
that expedited action is warranted and have combined the notice of 
initiation and the notice of preliminary results.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See 19 CFR 351.221(c)(3)(ii). See also Certain Pasta from 
Italy: Initiation and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty

    \7\ See, e.g., Pasta from Italy Preliminary Results, 80 FR at 
33480-41 (unchanged in Pasta from Italy Final Results, 80 FR at 
48807).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this changed circumstances review, pursuant to section 751(b) of 
the Act, Commerce conducted a successor-in-interest analysis. In making 
a successor-in-interest determination, Commerce examines several 
factors, including, but not limited to, changes in the following: (1) 
Management; (2) production facilities; (3) supplier relationships; and 
(4) customer base.\8\ While no single factor or combination of factors 
will necessarily provide a dispositive indication of a successor-in-
interest relationship, generally, Commerce will consider the new 
company to be the successor to the previous company if the new 
company's resulting operation is not materially dissimilar to that of 
its predecessor.\9\ Thus, if the record evidence demonstrates that, 
with respect to the production and sale of the subject merchandise, the 
new company operates as the same business entity as the predecessor 
company, Commerce may assign the new company the cash deposit rate of 
its predecessor.\10\

Commerce found that a company which only changed its name and did 
not change its operations is a successor-in-interest to the company 
before it changed its name.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with 19 CFR 351.216, we preliminarily determine that 
CAPL is the successor-in-interest to Coastal Aqua. Record evidence, as 
submitted by CAPL, indicates that CAPL operates as essentially the same 
business entity as Coastal Aqua with respect to the subject 
merchandise.\11\ For the complete successor-in-interest analysis,
