SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 3, 2023, Commerce published in the Federal Register a 
notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the CVD 
order on rebar from Turkey.\1\ On July 31, 2023, the Rebar Trade 
Coalition (the petitioner) timely requested that Commerce conduct an 
administrative review of Habas Sinai ve Tibbi Gazlar Istihsal 
Endustrisi A.S (Habas).\2\ We received no other requests for review. On 
September 28, 2023, Commerce issued an intent to rescind memorandum 
notifying interested parties that import data issued by the U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) indicated that Habas did not have 
reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR for which 
liquidation is suspended.\3\ Accordingly, in the absence of reviewable, 
suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR, Commerce 
intended to rescind this administrative review with respect to Habas. 
Commerce provided all parties an opportunity to comment. No parties 
submitted comments.

Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative 
Review and Join Annual Inquiry Service List, 88 FR 42693 (July 3, 
2023).

Review,'' dated July 31, 2023.

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.\4\ Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the 
suspended entries are liquidated at the CVD assessment rate for the 
review period.\5\ 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.\6\ As noted above, CBP confirmed that there were no 
entries of subject merchandise during the POR with respect to Habas, 
the only 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).
