Background
In April 2013, the Department
received multiple timely requests to
conduct an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
activated carbon from the PRC (‘‘the
Order’’).1 Based upon these requests, on
1 See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order: Certain
Activated Carbon From the People’s Republic of
China, 72 FR 20988 (April 27, 2007) (‘‘Order’’).
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 232001
June 3, 2013, the Department published
a notice of initiation of an
administrative review of the Order
covering the period April 1, 2012, to
March 31, 2013.2 The Department
initiated the administrative review with
respect to 185 companies.3 On August
28, 2013, Petitioners withdrew their
request for an administrative review on
Shanxi Industry Technology Trading
Co., Ltd., (‘‘Shanxi ITT’’), Shanxi
Xuanzhong Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.
(‘‘Xuanzhong’’), Tianjin Maijin
Industries Co., Ltd. (‘‘Tianjin’’) and
Xi’an Shuntong International Trade &
Industrials Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xi’an’’).4
Petitioners were the only party to
request a review of these companies.
Petitioners also withdrew their review
requests for an additional 165
companies, and no other party
requested a review of those companies.
However, those companies do not have
a separate rate from a prior segment of
this proceeding and are part of the PRCwide entity which could come under
review in this segment of the
proceeding. We intend to address the
disposition of these companies in the
preliminary results of this review.5
Partial Rescission
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Secretary 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. Petitioners’
requests for review of Shanxi ITT,
Xuanzhong, Tianjin and Xi’an were
withdrawn within the 90-day period.
Because Petitioners’ requests for review
were timely withdrawn and because no
other party requested a review of Shanxi
ITT, Xuanzhong, Tianjin and Xi’an, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
we are partially rescinding this review
with respect to Shanxi ITT, Xuanzhong,
Tianjin and Xi’an.

Ltd. (‘‘Calgon’’). However, Albemarle Corporation
also requested an administrative review of Calgon
in the current segment. See Letter from Albemarle

Assessment Rates
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries.6 Because Shanxi
ITT, Xuanzhong, Tianjin and Xi’an have
a separate rate from a prior segment of
this proceeding, 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)(2). The Department
intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP 15 days
after publication of this notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers for whom this review is
being rescinded, as of the publication
date of this notice, 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 Orders
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 or 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 777(i)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and
19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: December 17, 2013.
