Background

    In June 2016, the Department received multiple timely requests to

accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930,

[[Page 4300]]

as amended (the Act), the Department published a notice of initiation 
of an administrative review covering the period June 1, 2015, through 
May 31, 2016, with respect to eight companies.\1\ On September 29, 
2016, and October 11, 2016, CPZ/SKF and GGB, respectively, withdrew 
their requests for an administrative review.

Administrative Reviews, 81 FR 53121 (August 11, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. CPZ/SKF 
and GGB timely withdrew their requests for an administrative review of 
themselves; no other party requested a review of these companies. 
Accordingly, we are rescinding this review, in part, with respect to 
these companies, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For CPZ/
SKF and GGB, the companies for which these reviews are rescinded, 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 15 days after publication of this 
notice.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a 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 Secretary'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 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/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 sections 751 
and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: January 10, 2017.
Gary Taverman,
Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
