the notice of initiation of the requested review. Because the 
petitioner, ASPA, and the individual companies all withdrew their 
requests for administrative review within 90 days of the date of

requested a review of these companies, the Department is rescinding 
this review with respect to these companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1).\9\ The administrative review remains active with respect 
to all other companies for whom a review was initiated.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at a rate 
equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at 
the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, 
during the period February 1, 2016, through January 31, 2017, 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

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 Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary
