Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to 
rescind an administrative review of a CVD order where it concludes that 
there were no reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the 
POR.\8\ Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the 
suspended entries are liquidated at the CVD assessment rate for the 
review period.\9\ Therefore, for an administrative review to be 
conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce 
can instruct CBP to liquidate at the calculated CVD assessment rate for 
the review period.\10\ As noted above, Nanjing Ironstone, Dongsheng, 
and Xinguang Rack timely withdrew their requests for administrative 
review and CBP confirmed that there were no entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR with respect to Xiamen Luckyroc, the only 
remaining company subject to this review. Accordingly, in the absence 
of reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR, 
we are rescinding this administrative review, in its entirety, in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).

administrative review, no cash deposit rates will change. Accordingly, 
the current cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until 
further notice.

entries. Because Commerce is rescinding this review in its entirety, 
the entries to which this administrative review pertained shall be

consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce
