SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 1, 2015, we published a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
freshwater crawfish tail meat from the People's Republic of China for 
the POR September 1, 2014, through August 31, 2015.\1\ On November 9, 
2015, in response to timely requests from the petitioners,\2\ China 
Kingdom (Beijing) Import & Export Co., Ltd, Deyan Aquatic Products and 
Food Co., Ltd (Deyan), and Xuzhou Jinjiang Foodstuff Co., Ltd, and in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on freshwater crawfish tail meat 
from the People's Republic of China with respect to nine companies.\3\ 
On February 2, 2016, the petitioners withdrew their request for an 
administrative review for six out of nine companies, Deyan, Hubei 
Yuesheng Aquatic Products Co., Ltd., Nanjing Gemsen International Co., 
Ltd., Weishan Hongda Aquatic Food Co., Ltd., Xiping Opeck Food Co., 
Ltd., and Yancheng Hi-King Agriculture Developing Co., Ltd.\4\ On 
February 11, 2016, Deyan withdrew its request for an administrative 
review.\5\

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative 
Review, 80 FR 52741 (September 1, 2015).

petitioners).
    \3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 80 FR 69193 (November 9, 2015).
    \4\ See letter from the petitioners to the Department, 
``Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the People's Republic of China: 
Withdrawal of Certain Requests for 2014-15 Administrative Review'' 
dated February 2, 2016.
    \5\ See letter from Deyan to the Department titled, ``Re: 
Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the People's Republic of China 
Withdrawal of Request for Review'' dated February 11, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On January 27, 2016, the Department exercised its discretion to 
toll its administrative deadlines due to the closure of the Federal 
Government. Thus, the deadline for withdrawing a request for an 
administrative review was extended by four business days. The revised 
deadline for withdrawing an administrative review was February 12, 
2016.\6\ Therefore, Deyan's withdrawal request for an administrative 
review was timely.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Memorandum to the Record from Ron Lorentzen, Acting A/S 
for Enforcement & Compliance, regarding ``Tolling of Administrative 
Deadlines As a Result of the Government Closure During Snowstorm 
`Jonas' '' dated January 27, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Administrative Review in Part

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, ``in whole or in part, if a party that requested 
a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review.'' Because 
the petitioners and Deyan withdrew their review requests in a

[[Page 15508]]

timely manner, and because no other party requested a review of these 
companies, we are rescinding the administrative review in part with 
respect to the aforementioned six companies.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For the 
aforementioned companies, for which the review is rescinded, 
antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit 
of estimated antidumping 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 to CBP within 15 days after publication of this 
notice.

Notifications to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers 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 may result in the Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as a 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 or destruction of APO materials or 
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to 
comply with the regulations and the 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 Act and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: March 18, 2016.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
