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 28, 2006, the petitioner1 also
requested an administrative review for
numerous Indian exporters of subject
merchandise in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(b)(1).
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 Warmwater
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES_1
Shrimp from Brazil, Ecuador, India and
Thailand, 71 FR 17819 (Apr. 7, 2006)
(Notice of Initiation).

Shrimp Trade Action Committee.

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withdrawn for the companies listed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’’.
21JYN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 140 / Friday, July 21, 2006 / Notices
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.

SUMMARY: On July 7, 2006, the United
States Court of International Trade (CIT)
affirmed the Department of Commerce’s
(the Department’s) redetermination on
remand of the final results of the
antidumping duty administrative review
on stainless steel wire rods from India.
See Carpenter Technology, Corp. v.
United States and Viraj Group, Slip Op.
06–102 (CIT July 7, 2006). The
Department is now issuing this notice of
court decision not in harmony.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 29, 2002, the Department
published the final results of
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on stainless
steel wire rods from India for the period
December 1, 1999, through November
30, 2000. See Stainless Steel Wire Rods
from India; Final Results of
Antidumping Duty Administration
Review, 67 FR 37391 (May 29, 2002)
(Final Results). In the underlying
administrative review the Department
collapsed Viraj Forgings Limited (VFL),
Viraj Impoexpo Limited (VIL), and Viraj
Alloys Limited (VAL). See Final Results
and accompanying Issues and Decision
Memorandum at Comment 1 and
Collapsing Memorandum of the Viraj
Group, Limited, dated December 31,
2001 (Collapsing Memo). Carpenter
Technology Corporation (the Petitioner)
contested the collapsing of these
companies.
On August 16, 2004, the CIT issued a
decision remanding one aspect of the
Final Results, the collapsing of three of
the Viraj companies. The CIT ordered
the Department, ‘‘in the absence of any
agency showing herein that dispels this
logic based upon substantial evidence
on the record,’’ to calculate and impose
individual antidumping–duty margins
upon VFL and VIL in the manner of the
approach taken by the agency, and
affirmed by the CIT, in Viraj Group, Ltd.
v. United States, 162 F. Supp. 2d 656
(CIT 2001). On February 22, 2005, the
Department filed the final results of its
remand redetermination with the CIT.
Due to the fact that only VFL and VIL
made sales to the United States during
the period of review, we did not include
VAL’s sales or cost data in our revised
margin analyses for VFL and VIL. On
July 7, 2006, the CIT affirmed the
Department’s final results of
redetermination pursuant to remand.
