rural and urban areas equally, including
areas not traditionally visited by
international travelers; and (F) give
priority to countries and populations
most likely to travel to the United
States.
The Corporation is governed by a

Background
On January 2, 2020, Commerce
published a notice of opportunity to
request an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on potassium
permanganate from China.1 On March

10, 2020, pursuant to a request from
Pacific Accelerator Limited (PAL) and
its affiliate Chongqing Changyuan
Group Limited (Changyuan),2
Commerce initiated an administrative
review with respect to PAL and
Changyuan, in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR
351.213(b).3 On June 9, 2020, PAL and
Changyuan timely withdrew their
request for an administrative review.4
No other party requested an
administrative review of these
companies.
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1),
Commerce 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 date of the
notice of initiation. PAL and Changyuan
timely withdrew their review request.
No other party requested an
administrative review of the order for
this POR. Therefore, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding
this review in its entirety.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries of potassium permanganate from
China during the POR. Antidumping
duties shall be assessed at rates equal to
the cash deposit 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). Commerce 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 the only
reminder to importers whose entries
will be liquidated as a result of this
rescission 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 presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice also serves as the only
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
with the regulations and terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751 and
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).
Dated: June 26, 2020.
