for the period January 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department initiated an administrative review of the 
countervailing duty order on lightweight thermal paper from the PRC 
covering the period January 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011, based 
on a request by Appleton Papers, Inc. (``Petitioner''). See Initiation 
of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and 
Request for Revocation in Part, 77 FR 77017 (December 31, 2012).
    The review covers the following companies: Guangdong Guanhao High-
Tech Co., Ltd.; Henan Province Jianghe Paper Co., Ltd.; Jianghe Paper 
Co., Ltd.; JHT Paper; New Pride Co., Ltd.; and Shenzhen Taizhou 
Industrial Development Co., Ltd. On April 1, 2013, Petitioner withdrew 
its request for an administrative review of these companies.

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. In 
this case, Petitioner withdrew its request within the 90-day deadline 
and no other parties requested an administrative review of the 
countervailing duty order. Therefore, we are rescinding the 
administrative review of lightweight thermal paper from the PRC 
covering the period January 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess countervailing duties on all entries of lightweight 
thermal paper from the PRC during the POR at rates equal to the cash 
deposit of estimated countervailing 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.

Notifications

    This notice 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 countervailing duties prior to 
liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period.
    This notice serves as a final 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 that 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: April 11, 2013.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
