SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    In June 2018, Commerce received multiple timely requests to conduct 
an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on TRBs from 
China. Based upon these requests, on August 10, 2018, in accordance 
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 
Commerce published a notice of initiation of an administrative review 
covering the period June 1, 2017, through May 31, 2018, with respect to 
14 companies.\1\ In August and September, 2018, the following companies 
withdrew their requests for an administrative review: Changshan Peer 
Bearing Co., Ltd. (CPZ/SKF); CNH Industrial Italia SpA (CNH); GGB 
Bearing Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. (GGB); GSP Automotive Group 
Wenzhou Co., Ltd. (GSP); Hangzhou Hanji Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (Hanji

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partial Rescission

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce 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. CNH, CPZ/
SKF, GGB, GSP, Hanji Auto, Hangzhou Radical, SGBC, Xinglun Bearings, 
Zhaofeng, and Zhejiang Machinery timely withdrew their requests for an 
administrative review of themselves. No other party requested a review 
of these 10 companies. Accordingly, we are rescinding this review, in 
part, with respect to these companies, pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(1).
    The instant review will continue with respect to the following 
companies: Hangzhou Xiaoshan Dingli Machinery Co., Ltd.; Shandong Aokai 
Bearing Co., Ltd.; Taizhou Zson Bearing Technology Co., Ltd.; and 
Zhejiang Jingli Bearing Technology Co., Ltd.

Assessment

    Commerce 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for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall be 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). Commerce 
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 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 14, 2018.

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