SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of
Commerce (Commerce) is rescinding the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on certain
magnesia carbon bricks (bricks) from the
People’s Republic of China (China) for
the period of review (POR) September 1,
2022, through August 31, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AGENCY:
Background
On September 20, 2010, Commerce
published in the Federal Register the
antidumping duty order on bricks from
China.1 On September 28, 2023, the
Magnesia Carbon Bricks Fair Trade
Committee (the petitioner) submitted a
timely request that Commerce conduct
an administrative review.2
On November 15, 2023, Commerce
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of administrative
review with respect to imports of bricks
from China in accordance with section
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act) and 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i).3 This review covers
subject merchandise exported by 42

Mexico and the People’s Republic of China:
Antidumping Duty Orders, 75 FR 57257 (September
20, 2010) (Order).

Administrative Review,’’ dated September 28, 2023.

Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 88 FR

exporters.4 On December 20, 2023, we
placed on the record U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) data for entries
of bricks from China during the POR,
showing no reviewable POR entries and
invited interested parties to comment.5
No party filed comments with respect to
the CBP data.
On February 7, 2024, Commerce
notified all interested parties of its
intent to rescind the instant review
because there were no reviewable,
suspended entries of subject
merchandise by any of the companies
subject to this review during the POR
and invited interested parties to
comment.6 Commerce did not receive
any comments.
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is
Commerce’s practice to rescind an
administrative review of an
antidumping duty order when there are
no reviewable entries of subject
merchandise during the POR for which
liquidation is suspended.7 Normally,
upon completion of an administrative
review, the suspended entries are
liquidated at the antidumping duty
assessment rate calculated for the
review period.8 Therefore, for an
administrative review to be conducted,
there must be a reviewable, suspended
entry that Commerce can instruct CBP
to liquidate at the antidumping duty
assessment rate calculated for the
review period.9 As noted above, there
were no entries of subject merchandise
for the companies subject to this review
during the POR. Accordingly, in the
absence of suspended entries of subject
merchandise during the POR, we are
hereby rescinding this administrative
review, in its entirety, in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess
antidumping duties on all appropriate
entries. Antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash
deposit of estimated antidumping duties
required at the time of entry, or
