Background:
On November 5, 2012, the Department of Commerce (Department)
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review
of the antidumping duty order on seamless refined copper pipe and tube
from Mexico covering the period November 1, 2011, through October 31,
2012.\1\ The Department received a timely request for an antidumping
duty administrative review from the petitioners (i.e., Cerro Flow
Products, LLC; Wieland Copper Products, LLC; Mueller Copper Tube
Products, Inc.; and Mueller Copper Tube Company, Inc.) for the
following companies: 1) GD Affiliates S. de R.L. de C.V. (Golden
Dragon); 2) IUSA, S.A. de C.V. (IUSA); 3) Luvata Juarez S. de R.L. de
C.V. (Luvata Juarez); 4) Luvata Monterrey S. de R.L. de C.V. (Luvata
Monterrey); and 5) Nacional de Cobre, S.A. de C.V. (Nacobre). The
Department also received timely requests for an antidumping duty
administrative review from the following interested parties as defined
by section 771(9)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act):
(1) Golden Dragon; (2) Luvata Monterrey; and (3) Nacobre. On December
31, 2012, the Department published a notice of initiation of
administrative review with respect to these companies.\2\ On January
14, 2013, the petitioners withdrew their request for an administrative
review for IUSA, Luvata Juarez, and Luvata Monterrey. On March 5, 2013,
Luvata Monterrey withdrew its own request for an administrative review.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rescission, In Part
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary 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 notice of initiation of the requested review. The
petitioners' and Luvata Monterrey's requests were submitted within the
90-day period and, thus, are timely. Since these withdrawals of request
for an antidumping duty administrative review are timely and because no
other party requested a review of these companies, in accordance with
19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this administrative review with
respect to IUSA, Luvata Juarez, and Luvata Monterrey. We note that we
are continuing the administrative review with respect to Golden Dragon
and Nacobre.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For the
companies for which this review is rescinded antidumping duties shall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 to CBP 15 days
after publication of this notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a 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 the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders
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 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 Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: April 9, 2013.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
