AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: In response to a request from an interested party, the
Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated an administrative
review of the antidumping duty order on stainless steel bar from Japan
(the Order) covering the period February 1, 2010, through January 31,
2011. The interested party that requested the administrative review has
since withdrawn its request. As a result, the Department is rescinding
this review.
DATES: Effective Date: July 17, 2012.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bryan Hansen or Minoo Hatten, AD/CVD
Operations, Office 1, Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
3683 or (202) 482-1690, respectively.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 30, 2012, the Department published a notice of initiation
of an administrative review of the Order. See Initiation of Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for
Revocation in Part, and Deferral of Administrative Review, 77 FR 19179,
19181 (March 30, 2012). Based on a request for review from Suruga USA
Corp. (Suruga), we initiated a review of Misumi Corporation (Misumi).
Id. No other
[[Page 41970]]
party requested a review. On June 27, 2012, Suruga timely withdrew its
request for a review of the Order with respect to Misumi. See Letter
from Suruga to the Secretary, ``Stainless Steel Bar--Withdrawal of
Request for Administrative Review,'' dated June 27, 2012.
Rescission of Review
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will
rescind an administrative review, ``in whole or in part, if a party
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the
date of publication of notice of initiation of the requested review.''
As explained above, Suruga withdrew its request for a review of the
Order with respect to Misumi within the 90-day period articulated in 19
CFR 351.213(d)(1). Therefore, because we received no other requests for
review of this company and Suruga withdrew its request within the time
limit provided in the regulation, we are rescinding the administrative
review of the Order with respect to Misumi in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1).
Assessment Rates
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For
Misumi, 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, during the period
February 1, 2010, through January 31, 2011, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.212(c)(2). The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP within 15 days after publication of this notice.
Notifications
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 Department's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the return or destruction 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 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 11, 2012.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
