Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party or parties 
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the 
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. 
As noted above, all requests for review were withdrawn, and all parties 
withdrew their requests within 90 days of the publication date of the 
notice of initiation. No other parties requested an administrative 
review of the order. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review in its entirety.

(CBP) to assess CVDs on all appropriate entries of certain pasta from 
Italy. CYDs shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of 
estimated CYDs 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 to 
CBP 15 days after the date of publication of this notice of rescission 
of administrative review.

administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility

disclosed under an APO in accordance with .19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely 
written notification of the return or destruction of APO materials, or 
conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure
