SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 1, 2013, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
published in the Federal Register a notice of ``Opportunity to Request
Administrative Review'' of the antidumping duty order on lightweight
thermal paper from Germany for the period of review (POR) of November
1, 2012, through October 31, 2013.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative
Review, 78 FR 65612 (November 1, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On December 2, 2013, in accordance with section 751(a) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b), the
Department received a timely request from Appvion Inc. (the
petitioner), a domestic interested party, to conduct an administrative
review of the sales of Papierfabrik August Koehler SE (Koehler)
(formerly known as Papierfabrik August Koehler AG),\2\ Mitsubishi HiTec
Paper Flensburg GmbH, Mitsubishi HiTec Paper Bielefeld GmbH, and
Mitsubishi International Corp. Also on this date Mitsubishi HiTec Paper
Europe GmbH (Mitsubishi Europe) timely requested a review of itself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ We note that on November 27, 2013, Koehler requested a
review of itself. In addition, we note that in the preliminary
results of the 2011-2012 administrative review, we determined that
Papierfabrik August Koehler SE is the successor-in-interest to
Papierfabrik August Koehler AG (see Lightweight Thermal Paper from
Germany: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review; 2011-2012, 78 FR 78335 (December 26, 2013)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On December 30, 2013, the Department published in the Federal
Register a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on lightweight thermal paper from Germany with
respect to the above-named companies.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 78 FR
79392 (December 30, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On January 16, 2014, the petitioner timely withdrew its request for
a review of Mitsubishi HiTec Paper Flensburg GmbH, Mitsubishi HiTec
Paper Bielefeld GmbH, and Mitsubishi International Corp. Also on this
date, Mitsubishi Europe withdrew its request for a review.
Partial 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 parties that
requested a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. We
received the petitioner's and Mitsubishi Europe's withdrawal requests
before the 90-day deadline. Therefore, in response to their withdrawal
requests and pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this
review with regard to Mitsubishi HiTec Paper Flensburg GmbH, Mitsubishi
HiTec Paper Bielefeld GmbH, Mitsubishi International Corp, and
Mitsubishi Europe. The instant review will continue with respect to
Koehler.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries.
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 the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as the only 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
[[Page 8157]]
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 double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order
This notice serves as the only reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written
notification of return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to
judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with
the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a)(1) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: February 5, 2014.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
