SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On February 1, 2018, Commerce published the notice of opportunity 
to request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
wind towers from Vietnam for the above POR.\1\ On February 28, 2018, in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b), Commerce received a timely request 
from the Wind Tower Trade Coalition (the petitioner) to conduct an 
administrative review of this antidumping duty order.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review, 83 FR 4639 (February 1, 2018).
    \2\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Utility Scale Wind Towers from 
the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Request for Administrative 
Review,'' dated February 28, 2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to this request, and in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.221(c)(1)(i), on April 16, 2018, Commerce published a notice of 
initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
wind towers from Vietnam.\3\ On May 23, 2018, the petitioner timely 
withdrew its request for an administrative review of all four companies 
for which it had requested a review.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 83 FR 16298 (April 16, 2018) (Initiation 
Notice).
    \4\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Utility Scale Wind Towers from 
the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Withdrawal of Request for 
Administrative Review,'' dated May 23, 2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 the request within 90 days of the publication date 
of the notice of initiation of review. As noted above, the petitioner 
withdrew its request for review within 90 days of the publication date 
of the Initiation Notice. No other parties requested an administrative 
review of the order. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review on wind towers from 
Vietnam covering the period February 1, 2017, through January 31, 2018, 
in its entirety.

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of wind towers 
from Vietnam. 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). Commerce intends to issue appropriate 
assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of 
this notice of rescission of administrative review in the Federal 
Register.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers for whom 
this review is being rescinded 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 the 
antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (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 published in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of 
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: September 24, 2018.

Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for
