safety, improvement of mechanization

Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230;
telephone: (202) 482–5193 or (202) 482–
5720, respectively.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 2, 2015, based on a
timely request for review by Wheatland
Tube Company (‘‘Wheatland’’), the
Department published in the Federal
Register a notice of initiation of an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on circular
welded carbon quality steel pipe from
the PRC with respect to 20 companies
covering the period July 1, 2014,
through June 30, 2015.1 On December 1,
2015, Wheatland withdrew its request
for an administrative review of all of the
companies listed in its review request.
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 notice of
initiation of the requested review. In
this case, Wheatland timely withdrew
its review request by the 90-day
deadline, and no other party requested
an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order. As a result, we
are rescinding the administrative review
of circular welded carbon quality steel
pipe from the PRC for the period July 1,
2014, through June 30, 2015.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’)
to assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. Because the
Department is rescinding this
administrative review in its entirety, the
1 See

Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 80 FR
53106 (September 2, 2015) (‘‘Initiation Notice’’).

entries to which this administrative
review pertained shall be assessed
antidumping duties that are equal to the
cash deposits 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 to CBP within 15 days after
the publication of this notice.
Notifications
Notification to Importers
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.
Administrative Protective Orders
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, 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
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).
