Administrative Review, 75 FR 48644 (August 11, 2010).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Partial Rescission
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested
the review withdraws
[[Page 51755]]
the request within 90 days of the date of publication of notice of
initiation of the requested review. Petitioners' request was submitted
within the 90-day period, and thus, is timely. Because Petitioners'
withdrawal of requests for review is timely and because no other party
requested a review of the aforementioned companies, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are partially rescinding this review with
respect to the above listed companies.
Assessment Rates
At this time, the Department cannot order liquidation for the above
companies because they remain part of the PRC-wide entity and their
respective entries may be under review in the ongoing administrative
review. The Department intends to issue assessment instructions for the
PRC-wide entity, which will cover any entries by the above companies,
15 days after publication of the final results of the ongoing
administrative review.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this
review is being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice,
of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure
to comply with this requirement could result in the Secretary's
presumption that reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and
the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (``APO'') of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/destruction of
APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with section
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).
Dated: August 17, 2010.
Edward C. Yang,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Operations.
