Background
On June 15, 1987, the Department of Commerce (Department) published
in the Federal Register the antidumping duty order on tapered roller
bearings and parts thereof, finished and unfinished (TRBs), from the
People's Republic of China (PRC).\1\ On June 2, 2014, the Department
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review
of the antidumping duty order on TRBs from the PRC covering the period
June 1, 2013, through May 31, 2014.\2\ The Department received timely
requests for an antidumping duty administrative review from Changshan
Peer Bearing Co. Ltd. (CPZ/SKF), GGB Bearing Technology (Suzhou) Co.,
Ltd., Ningbo Xinglun Bearings Import & Export Co., Ltd., and Xinchang
Kaiyuan Automotive Bearing Co., Ltd. Additionally, the Department
received timely requests for review from the petitioner, the Timken
Company, for CPZ/SKF and Yantai CMC Bearing Co., Ltd., and from CNP
Automotive Inc. (CNP), a U.S. importer of TRBs, for Guangzhou Longgo
Auto Parts Inc. (Longgo) and Zhaoqing Native Produce Import and Export
Co., Ltd. (Zhaoqing Native). On July 31, 2014, in accordance with
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the
Department published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of
administrative review with respect to these companies.\3\ On September
29, 2014, CNP withdrew its request for an administrative review of
Longgo and Zhaoqing Native.

Bearings and Parts Thereof, Finished or Unfinished, From the
People's Republic of China, 52 FR 22667 (June 15, 1987).
\2\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative
Review, 79 FR 31303 (June 2, 2014).
\3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 79 FR
44390, 44392 (July 31, 2014).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 the notice of initiation of the requested review. CNP's
withdrawal of its request was submitted within the 90-day period and,
thus, is timely. Because CNP's withdrawal of its request for an
antidumping duty administrative review is timely and because no other
party requested a review of Longgo and Zhaoqing Native, we are
rescinding this administrative review, in part, with respect to these
companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ The Department no longer considers the non-market economy
entity as an exporter conditionally subject to administrative
reviews. See Antidumping Proceedings: Announcement of Change in
Department Practice for Respondent Selection in Antidumping Duty
Proceedings and Conditional Review of the Nonmarket Economy Entity
in NME Antidumping Duty Proceedings, 78 FR 65963 (Nov. 4, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 sections 751
and 777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: October 24, 2014.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
