Department published in the Federal Register the notice of initiation
of this countervailing duty administrative review with respect to DSM
for the period January 1, 2013, through December 31, 2012.\2\ On April

Rescission of the 2013 Administrative Review

administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that

Department published the Initiation on April 1, 2014.\4\ DSM's
withdrawal of its review request was submitted within the 90-day period
