SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 2, 2020, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the AD order on chlorinated 
isocyanurates from Spain for the POR.\1\ On June 30, 2020, Commerce 
received a timely-filed request from Bio-Lab, Inc. (Bio-Lab), Clearon 
Corp. (Clearon), and Occidental Chemical Corporation (OxyChem), 
domestic producers of chlorinated isocyanurates and the petitioner in 
the original antidumping investigation (the petitioner) for an 
administrative review of one Spanish producer and/or exporter, in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b).\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review, 85 FR 33628 (June 2, 2020).
    \2\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Chlorinated Isocyanurates from 
Spain: Request for Administrative Review,'' dated June 30, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On August 6, 2020, pursuant to this request, and in accordance with 
section 751(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce 
published a notice initiating an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on chlorinated isocyanurates from Spain for one 
Spanish producer and/or exporter.\3\ On October 8, 2020, the petitioner 
timely withdrew its request for an administrative review.\4\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 or parties 
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the 
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. 
The petitioner withdrew its request for review within the 90-day 
deadline. Because Commerce received no other requests for review, we 
are rescinding the administrative review of the order on chlorinated 
isocyanurates from Spain covering the June 1, 2019, through May 31, 
2020 POR, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of chlorinated 
isocyanurates from Spain. 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)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue 
appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as the only 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 presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as a reminder to all 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. 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 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 Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: October 16, 2020.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
