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 or parties
that requested a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review.
As noted above, Petitioners withdrew their requests for review of Huvis
and Woongjin within 90 days of the publication date of the notice of
initiation. In addition, Huvis also timely withdrew its request for an
administrative review. No other parties requested an administrative
review of the order. Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR
351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review in its entirety.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of PSF
from Korea. 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 the date of publication of
this notice of rescission of administrative review.
Notifications
This notice also 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 antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also 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 sanctionable
violation.
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: August 20, 2014.
