SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On August 2, 2010, the U.S. Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the countervailing duty order on light-walled rectangular pipe and 
tube from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') for the period of 
review January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009. See Antidumping or 
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation; 
Opportunity To Request Administrative Review, 75 FR 45094 (August 2, 
2010). On August 30, 2010, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(b), the 
Department received a timely request from Sun Group Co., Ltd. (``Sun 
Group'') to conduct an administrative review of Sun Group. No other 
party requested an administrative review.
    On September 29, 2010, the Department published the notice of 
initiation of this countervailing duty administrative review with 
respect to Sun Group. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 75 FR 
60076, 60082 (September 29, 2010).

Rescission of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party who requested 
the administrative review withdraws the request within 90 days of the 
date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested 
administrative review. On October 15, 2010, Sun Group timely withdrew 
its request for an administrative review, and no other party requested 
a review. Therefore, in response to Sun Group's withdrawal of its 
request for review, and pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the 
Department hereby rescinds this administrative review.

Assessment Instructions

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate entries. 
For the Sun Group, countervailing duties shall be assessed at rates 
equal to the cash deposit or bonding rate of the estimated 
countervailing duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 
warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). 
The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions 
directly to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). 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 sanctionable violation.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: November 1, 2010.
Susan H. Kuhbach,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
