SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    In June 2017, the Department received multiple timely requests to 
conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on TRBs 
from the PRC. Based upon these requests, on August 1, 2017, in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act), the Department published a notice of initiation of an 
administrative review covering the period June 1, 2016, through May 31, 
2017, with respect to 24 companies.\1\ On September 13, 2017, CPZ/SKF 
and SGBC withdrew their requests for an administrative review. On 
September 13, 2017, and October 30, 2017, The Timken Company (the 
petitioner) withdrew its requests for an administrative review on SGBC, 
Wanxiang, and New Torch.

Administrative Reviews, 82 FR 35749 (August 1, 2017). See also 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews, 82 FR 42974, 42981 (September 13, 2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department 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 SGBC timely withdrew their requests for an administrative review of 
themselves. The petitioner timely withdrew its requests for review 
concerning SGBC, Wanxiang, and New Torch. No other party requested a 
review of these four 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 the 
companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall 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

[[Page 55987]]

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 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: November 16, 2017.
