published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the antidumping duty (AD) order on polyethylene terephthalate film, 
sheet and strip from the United Arab Emirates covering the period 
November 1, 2013, through October 31, 2014.\1\ The Department received 
a timely request from Petitioners \2\ for an AD administrative review 
of two companies: JBF RAK LLC (JBF) and Flex Middle East FZE (Flex).\3\ 
In addition, JBF submitted a timely request for an AD review of 
itself.\4\ On December 23, 2014, pursuant to the requests from 
interested parties, the Department published a notice of initiation of 
administrative review with respect to Flex and JBF.\5\ On March 23, 
2015, Petitioners withdrew their requests for review of JBF and 
Flex.\6\

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative 
Review, 79 FR 65176, 65177 (November 3, 2014).
    \2\ Petitioners are DuPont Teijin Films, Mitsubishi Polyester

    \3\ See Petitioners' letter, ``Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) 
Film, Sheet, and Strip from United Arab Emirates: Request for

    \4\ See JBF's letter, ``JBF RAK LLC/Request for A/D

and Strip from United Arab Emirates,'' dated November 24, 2014.
    \5\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission in Part

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party that requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. The 
Department initiated the instant review on December 23, 2014 and 
Petitioners withdrew their request on March 23, 2015, which is within 
the 90-day period and thus is timely. Because Petitioners' withdrawal 
of their requests for review is timely and because no other party 
requested a review of Flex, we are rescinding this review, in part, 
with respect to Flex, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). JBF's 
request for a review of itself has not been withdrawn. As such, the 
instant review will continue with respect to JBF.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess ADs on all appropriate entries. Subject merchandise of 
Flex will be assessed ADs at rates equal to the cash deposit of 
estimated ADs required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from 
warehouse, for consumption, during the period November 1, 2013, through 
October 31, 2014, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The 
Department intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after the date of publication of this notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a 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 ADs 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 ADs occurred and the subsequent increase in the 
amount of ADs assessed.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 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 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: April 3, 2015.

Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
