SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 1, 2011, the Department published a notice announcing 
an opportunity for interested parties to request an administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on forged stainless steel flanges 
from India. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 
76 FR 5559 (February 1, 2011). Pradeep Metals Limited requested an 
administrative review of entries of its subject merchandise and, based 
on that request, the Department published in the Federal Register a 
notice of initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on forged stainless steel flanges from India covering the 
period February 1, 2010, through January 22, 2011. See Initiation of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews, Requests for Revocation in 
Part, and Deferral of Administrative Review, 76 FR 17825 (March 31, 
2011). On May 10, 2011, the Department received a letter from Pradeep 
Metals Limited, withdrawing its request for an administrative review.

Rescission of Review

    19 CFR 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations provides that 
the Department will rescind an administrative review if the party that 
requested the review withdraws its request for review within 90 days of 
the publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review, or 
withdraws at a later date if the Department determines it is reasonable 
to extend the time limit for withdrawing the request. Pradeep Metals 
Limited withdrew its request within 90 days of the publication of the 
notice of initiation. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this 
review.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For 
Pradeep Metals Limited, 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). The Department intends to 
issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after 
publication of this notice.

Notifications

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this 
review is being rescinded of their responsibility under 19 CFR 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 Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of the 
antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the 
proceeding. 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.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: May 25, 2011.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
