Rescission in Part

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party that requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. The 
Department initiated this review on September 13, 2017, and the 
petitioners partially withdrew their request on December 12, 2017, 
which is within the 90-day period, and is thus timely. In accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), because the petitioners' partial withdrawal 
of their request for review is timely and because no other party 
requested a review of these companies, we are rescinding this review, 
in part, with respect to the following companies: Atlantis 
International Services Company Ltd; Uttam Galva Steels Limited; Uttam 
Galva Steels (BVI) Limited; Uttam Galva Steels, Netherlands, B.V.; and 
Uttam Value Steels Limited. The petitioners did not withdraw the 
request for review of JSW Coated Products Limited or JSW Steel Ltd. As 
such, this review will continue

with respect to JSW Coated Products Limited and JSW Steel Ltd.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess anti-dumping 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companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall 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, during the period January 4, 2016, through June 30, 2017, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department intends to 
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of 
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 the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding 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(a)(3), 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 section 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: December 18, 2017.

Senior Director performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
