SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce
(the Department) is rescinding the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain hotrolled carbon steel flat products (hot
rolled steel) from India for the period
December 1, 2011, through November
30, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 30, 2013, the Department
initiated an administrative review of hot
rolled steel from India covering the
period December 1, 2011, through
November 30, 2012, based on a request
by United States Steel Corporation (U.S.
Steel) and Nucor Corporation (Nucor).1
The review covers eight companies.2
Nucor and U.S. Steel withdrew their
requests for an administrative review of
these companies on April 12, 2013, and
April 25, 2013, respectively.
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in
part, if the party that requested the
review withdraws its request within 90
days of the publication of the Initiation
Notice. In this case, U.S. Steel and
Nucor withdrew their requests within
the 90-day deadline and no other parties
requested an administrative review of
the antidumping duty order. Therefore,
we are rescinding the administrative
review of hot rolled steel from India
covering the period December 1, 2011,
through November 30, 2012, of the eight
companies listed in the Initiation
Notice.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all entries
of hot rolled steel from India during the
period of review. Because the
Department is rescinding this
administrative review in its entirety, the
entries to which this administrative
review pertained shall be assessed
antidumping duties at rates equal to the
cash deposit of estimated antidumping
duties required at the time of entry or

CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). The Department
intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP 15 days after
publication of this notice.
Notifications
This notice serves as a final 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 the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping
duties.
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).
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 that is subject to
sanction.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Background
The Department published the
antidumping duty order on fresh garlic
from the PRC in the Federal Register on
November 16, 1994.1 On May 8 and 24,
2013, the Department received timely
requests for NSRs from Cangshan
Qingshui Vegetable Foods Co., Ltd.
(Qingshui) and Jinxiang Merry Vegetable
Co., Ltd. (Merry), in accordance with
section 751(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19
CFR 351.214(c).
Qingshui and Merry each certified
that each is both the exporter and
producer of the fresh garlic upon which
their requests for NSRs are based.
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(I) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(i),
Qingshui and Merry each certified that
they did not export fresh garlic for sale
to the United States during the period
of investigation (POI).2 Moreover,
pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(i)(II) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(A),
Qingshui and Merry each certified that,
since the investigation was initiated,
they have never been affiliated with any
exporter or producer who exported the
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POI, including those
not individually examined during the
investigation.3 Further, as required by
19 CFR 351.214(b)(2)(iii)(B), they each
certified that their export activities are
not controlled by the central
government of the PRC.4 Also, Qingshui
and Merry each certified they had no
subsequent shipments.5
In addition to the certifications
described above, pursuant to 19 CFR
1 See Antidumping Duty Order: Fresh Garlic From
the People’s Republic of China, 59 FR 59209
(November 16, 1994).

2013 at Exhibit 1 and Merry’s request for an NSR

dated concurrently with this notice.

Jkt 229001
351.214(b)(2)(iv), Qingshui and Merry
each submitted documentation
establishing the following: (1) The dates
on which the fresh garlic was first
entered; (2) the volumes of those
shipments; and (3) the dates of their first
sales to unaffiliated customers in the
United States.6
The Department queried the database
of U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) in an attempt to confirm that
shipments reported by Qingshui and
Merry had entered the United States for
consumption and that liquidation had
been properly suspended for
antidumping duties. The information
which the Department examined was
consistent with that provided by
Qingshui and Merry in their requests.7
Period of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(c), an
exporter or producer may request an
NSR within one year of the date on
which its subject merchandise was first
entered. Moreover, 19 CFR 351.214(d)(1)
states that if the request for the review
is made during the six-month period
ending with the end of the semiannual
anniversary month, the Secretary will
initiate an NSR in the calendar month
immediately following the semiannual
anniversary month. Further, 19 CFR
315.214(g)(1)(i)(B) states that if the NSR
was initiated in the month immediately
following the semiannual anniversary
month, the POR will be the six-month
period immediately preceding the
semiannual anniversary month. Within
one year of the dates on which their
fresh garlic was first entered, Qingshui
and Merry made the requests for NSRs
in May, which is the semiannual
anniversary month of the order.
Therefore, the Secretary must initiate
these reviews in June and the POR is
November 1, 2012, through April 30,
2013.8
Initiation of New Shipper Review
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.214(b), and the
information on the record, the
Department finds that Qingshui’s and
Merry’s requests meet the threshold
requirements for initiation of an NSR.
The Department intends to issue the
preliminary results within 180 days
after the date on which these review are
initiated and the final results within 90
days after the date on which we issue
the preliminary results.9
It is the Department’s usual practice,
in cases involving non-market
6 Id.

economies, to require that a company
seeking to establish eligibility for an
antidumping duty rate separate from the
country-wide rate (i.e., a separate rate)
provide evidence of de jure and de facto
absence of government control over the
company’s export activities.10
Accordingly, the Department will issue
questionnaires to Qingshui and Merry
that include a separate rate section.
These reviews will proceed if the
responses provide sufficient indication
that the exporter and producer are not
subject to either de jure or de facto
government control with respect to their
exports of fresh garlic.
The Department will instruct CBP to
allow, at the option of the importer, the
posting, until the completion of the
review, of a bond or security in lieu of
a cash deposit for certain entries of the
subject merchandise from Qingshui and
Merry in accordance with section
75l(a)(2)(B)(iii) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.214(e). Specifically, the bonding
privilege will only apply to entries of
subject merchandise exported and
produced by Qingshui, and exported
and produced by Merry, the sales of
which are the basis for these NSR
requests.
Interested parties requiring access to
proprietary information in these NSRs
should submit applications for
disclosure under administrative
protective order in accordance with 19
CFR 351.305 and 351.306.
This initiation and notice are in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 and
351.221(c)(l)(i).
