SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 1, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register a notice of opportunity to request an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen 
warmwater shrimp from India for the period August 4, 2004, through 
January 31, 2006. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, 
Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request 
Administrative Review, 71 FR 5239 (Feb. 1, 2006). Between February 23, 
2006, and February 28, 2006, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b)(2), 
certain respondents requested a review of the antidumping duty order on 
certain frozen warmwater shrimp from India. In addition, on February

Action Committee.

    In April 2006, the Department initiated an administrative review 
for 347 companies and we requested that each provide data on the 
quantity and value of its exports of subject merchandise to the United 
States during the period of review (POR). These companies are listed in 
the Department's notice of initiation. See Notice of Initiation of 
Administrative Reviews of the Antidumping Duty Orders on Certain Frozen

Seafoods (Winner); (267) Wisdom Marine Exports (Wisdom); and (268) Z A. 
Food Products (Z A.). Section 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's 
regulations requires that the Secretary rescind an administrative 
review if a party requesting a review withdraws the request within 90 
days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation. Therefore, 
because all requests for administrative reviews were timely withdrawn 
for the companies listed above, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review with regard to these 
companies.
    In addition, from April through June 2006, the Department received 
information that the Notice of Initiation contained duplicate company 
names for five entities. Specifically, we received requests for review 
of four of these companies from both the petitioner and the respondent 
with variations: (1) Devi Marine Food Exports Ltd. and Devi Marine Food 
Exports Private Limited; (2) Kader Exports and Kader Exports Private 
Limited; (3) Magnum Estate Private and Magnum Estate Private Limited; 
and (4) Manufacturer Falcon Marine Exports and Falcon Marine Exports 
Limited. For a fifth company, the petitioner requested a review of the 
company twice: Navyauga Exports and Navayuga Exports Ltd. We have 
received information on the record of this proceeding showing that: (1) 
These company-name variation pairs refer to the same companies; and (2) 
the correct legal names for these companies are Devi Marine Food 
Exports Private Limited; Kader Exports Private Limited; Magnum Estate 
Private Limited; Falcon Marine Exports Limited; and Navayuga Exports 
Ltd. We clarify that we will include these companies in our 
administrative review only once. Therefore, because the companies 
identified above will be included in this administrative review and 
because keeping the incorrect company names with the list of companies 
included in this administrative review creates administrative 
difficulties, we are rescinding the review of ``Devi Marine Food 
Exports Ltd.'', ``Kader Exports'', ``Magnum Estate Private'', 
``Manufacturer Falcon Marine Exports'', and ``Navyauga Exports''.

[[Page 41421]]

    In June 2006, the Department also received information indicating 
that one of the companies named in the Notice of Initiation is now 
doing business under a different name. This company is Surya Marine 
Exports/Suryamitra Exim Pvt. Ltd. Therefore, in order to determine 
whether this company is subject to this proceeding, the Department must 
make a successor-in-interest finding with respect to it. We intend to 
make such a finding no later than the preliminary results in this case.

interested party requested a review for these companies, in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review with respect 
to these companies.
    Additionally, as noted above, we are rescinding the review of 
``Devi Marine Food Exports Ltd.'', ``Kader Exports'', ``Magnum Estate 
Private'', ``Manufacturer Falcon Marine Exports'', and ``Navyauga 
Exports''.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
