However, the Department generally will not accept in the rebuttal submission additional or alternative surrogate value information not previously on the record, if the deadline for submission of surrogate value information has passed.7 Furthermore, the Department generally will not accept business proprietary information in either the surrogate value submissions or the rebuttals thereto, as the regulation regarding the submission of surrogate values allows only for the submission of publicly available information.8 mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with Assessment Rates Upon issuance of the final results, the Department will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.9 For assessment purposes, we calculated exporter/importer- (or customer-) specific assessment rates for merchandise subject to this review. Dixon reported that its U.S. affiliate was the importer of record for all U.S. sales. Thus, we calculated an ad valorem rate by dividing the total dumping margins for reviewed sales by the total entered values associated with those transactions. If Dixon’s antidumping duty rate exceeds 0.5 percent ad valorem for the final results of this review, we will instruct CBP to assess duties on all of Dixon’s entries. See 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2). The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after publication of the final results of this review. For companies for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from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 The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions regarding entries of the rescinded companies directly to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice. 7 See, e.g., Glycine from the People’s Republic of China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Final Rescission, in Part, 72 FR 58809 (October 17, 2007), and accompanying Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comment 2. 8 See 19 CFR 351.301(c)(3). 9 See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).

These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Importers This notice also serves as a preliminary 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 Department’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

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

requests were submitted within the 90-day period and thus are

Mitsubishi Polyester Film, Inc., SKC, Inc., and Toray Plastics 
(America), Inc. for an administrative review of Jindal, Polyplex, and

will proceed with individual examination of the two previously selected 
mandatory respondents, Jindal and SRF.

explained in the memorandum from the Assistant Secretary for Import 
Administration, the Department has exercised its discretion to toll 
deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government 
from October 29, through October 30, 2012. Thus, all deadlines in 
this segment of the proceeding have been extended by two days. The 
revised deadline for filing a withdrawal request was November 30,

deposit of estimated ADs 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 assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of this

of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 
certificate regarding the reimbursement of ADs prior to liquidation of 
the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with
