In its submission, Hyson Exports stated that Hyson Logistics undertook a name change to Hyson Exports but is otherwise unchanged.\1\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ See Hyson Exports' Letter ``Request for Changed Circumstances Review: Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from India,'' dated July 23, 2020. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- On September 15, 2020, Commerce initiated this changed circumstances review and published its notice of preliminary results, determining that Hyson Exports is the successor-in-interest to Hyson Logistics.\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 Hyson Exports is the successor-in-interest to Hyson Logistics.\3\ 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.\4\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \2\ See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from India: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Changed Circumstances Review, 85 FR 57192, 57193 (September 15, 2020) (Initiation and Preliminary Results). \3\ Id. \4\ Id. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the Order The merchandise subject to the order is certain frozen warmwater shrimp.\5\ 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.

As a result of this determination and consistent with established practice, we find that Hyson Exports should receive the cash deposit rate previously assigned to Hyson Logistics. Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced or exported by Hyson Exports and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the Federal Register at 1.35 percent, which is the current antidumping duty cash deposit rate for Hyson Logistics.\6\ This cash deposit requirement shall remain in effect until further notice. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \6\ See 2016-2017 Final Results. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notification to Interested Parties 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 and 19 CFR 351.216(e), 351.221(b), and 351.221(c)(3).
