SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 5, 2016, the Department
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on
polyethylene retail carrier bags (PRCBs)
from the PRC for the period of review
(POR) August 1, 2015, through July 31,
2016.1 On August 31, 2016, the
petitioners, the Polyethylene Retail
Carrier Bag Committee and its
individual members, Hilex Poly Co.,
LLC, and Superbag Corporation,
requested an administrative review of
the order with respect to Dongguan
Nozawa Plastics Products Co., Ltd. and
United Power Packaging, Ltd.

(collectively, Nozawa).2 On October 14,
2016, in accordance with section 751(a)
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i),
we initiated an administrative review of
the order on PRCBs from the PRC with
respect to Nozawa.3 On January 5, 2017,
the petitioners timely withdrew their
request for an administrative review of
Nozawa.4 No other party requested a
review.
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the
Department will rescind an
administrative review, ‘‘in whole or in
part, if a party that requested a review
withdraws the request within 90 days of
the date of publication of notice of
initiation of the requested review.’’ The
petitioners withdrew their request for
review within the 90-day time limit.
Because we received no other requests
for review of Nozawa and no other
requests for the review of the order on
PRCBs from the PRC with respect to
other companies subject to the order, we
are rescinding the administrative review
of the order in full, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries of PRCBs from the
PRC during the POR at rates equal to the
cash deposit or bonding rate 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 15 days after
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.
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

Department, ‘‘Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags from

Notification Regarding Administrative

This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (APO) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely
written notification of the return or
destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 5, 2016, the Department published a notice of opportunity
to request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on
polyethylene retail carrier bags (PRCBs) from the PRC for the period of
review (POR) August 1, 2015, through July 31, 2016.\1\ On August 31,
2016, the petitioners, the Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bag Committee
and its individual members, Hilex Poly Co., LLC, and Superbag
Corporation, requested an administrative review of the order with
respect to Dongguan Nozawa Plastics Products Co., Ltd. and United Power
Packaging, Ltd. (collectively, Nozawa).\2\ On October 14, 2016, in
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(the Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative
review of the order on PRCBs from the PRC with respect to Nozawa.\3\ On
January 5, 2017, the petitioners timely withdrew their request for an
administrative review of Nozawa.\4\ No other party requested a review.

administrative review, ``in whole or in part, if a party that requested
a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review.'' The
petitioners withdrew their request for review within the 90-day time
limit. Because we received no other requests for review of Nozawa and
no other requests for the review of the order on PRCBs from the PRC
with respect to other companies subject to the order, we are rescinding
the administrative review of the order in full, in accordance with 19
CFR 351.213(d)(1).
