Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
The Department of Commerce (Commerce) is rescinding the administrative review of the antidumping duty (AD) order on stainless steel sheet and strip (SSSS) from the People's Republic of China (China) for the period September 19, 2016, through March 31, 2018.
Applicable Date: August 6, 2018.
Chloee Sagmoe and Kathryn Wallace, Enforcement and Compliance, AD/CVD Operations, Office VII, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-2273 and (202) 482-6251.
On April 2, 2018, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the antidumping order on SSSS from China for the period September 19, 2016 through March 31, 2018.[1] On April 30, 2018, Hans-Mill Corporation and C.Y. Housewares (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. (C.Y. Housewares), requested an administrative review of its exports of subject merchandise to the United States.[2] Additionally, on April 30, 2018, the petitioners [3] requested an ( printed page 38284) administrative review with respect to the U.S. entries of subject merchandise that were produced in or exported from China by the companies listed in the Appendix.[4] On June 6, 2018, in accordance with section 751(a) the Act and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative review of the order on SSSS from China with respect to the requested companies.[5] On June 20, 2018, the petitioners timely withdrew their requests for an administrative review of all 152 companies listed in Appendix I.[6] On July 3, 2018, C.Y. Housewares also timely withdrew its request for an administrative review.[7]
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an administrative review, “in whole or in part, if a party that requested the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review.” The petitioners and C.Y. Housewares both withdrew their requests within the 90-day time limit. Because we received no other requests for review of the order on SSSS from China, we are rescinding the administrative review of the order in full, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping on all appropriate entries of SSSS from China during the POR 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 instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice in the Federal Register .
This notice also serves as a final 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 Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to the administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under an 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 violation which is subject to sanction.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: July 31, 2018.
