review of the antidumping duty order on polyethylene terephthalate

period November 1, 2015, through October 31, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 13, 2017, based on a timely request for review by 
Mitsubishi Polyester Film, Inc. and SKC, Inc. (collectively, the 
petitioners), the Department of Commerce (Commerce) published in the 
Federal Register a notice of initiation of an administrative review of 
the antidumping duty order on polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet, 
and strip (PET film) from the People's Republic of China (PRC) with 
respect to four companies for the period of review (POR) November 1, 
2015, through October 31, 2016.\1\ On February 16, 2017, pursuant to 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1), the petitioners timely withdrew their request for an 
administrative review for all of the companies for which Commerce 
initiated a review.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 4294 (January 13, 2017) (Initiation 
Notice).
    \2\ See Letter from Petitioners to the Secretary of Commerce 
``Polyethylene Terephthalate Film, Sheet, and Strip from the 
People's Republic of China: Withdrawal of Request for Antidumping 
Duty Administrative Review,'' dated February 16, 2017.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the publication of 
the notice of initiation of the requested review. In this case, the 
petitioners timely withdrew their review request by the 90-day 
deadline, and no other party requested an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order. Therefore, in response to the timely withdrawal 
of the request for review, and in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), 
we are rescinding the administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on PET film from the PRC for the period November 1, 2015, through 
October 31, 2016, in its entirety.

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Because this 
administrative review is being rescinded in its entirety, the entries 
to which this administrative review pertain shall be assessed 
antidumping duties that are equal to the cash deposits 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). 
Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 
within 15 days after the publication of this notice.

Notification 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 could result in the Commerce's presumption that 
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent

[[Page 20866]]

assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

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, which continues 
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the 
proceeding. 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 terms of an APO 
is a violation which is subject to sanction.

Notification to Interested Parties

    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).
