SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 10, 2018, based on timely requests for review for 86 companies by Mid Continent Steel & Wire, Inc. (Mid Continent), a domestic producer and interested party, and various Taiwanese companies, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain steel nails from Taiwan covering the period July 1, 2017, through June 30, 2018.
See Mid Continent's Letter, “Request for Administrative Review,” dated July 31, 2018.
See Requests for Administrative Review, dated July 31, 2018, from: Romp Coil Nails Industries Inc. (barcode 3736761-01), Hor Liang Industrial Corp. (barcode 3737089-01); PT Enterprise Inc. and Pro-Team Coil Nail Enterprise, Inc. (barcode 3737101-01); and Unicatch Industrial Co., Ltd. (barcode 3737114-01).
See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 83 FR 45596 (September 10, 2018) (Initiation Notice).
On October 5, 2018, Mid Continent withdrew its request for administrative review for 80 of the 86 companies in its original request for review. No other party requested a review of these 80 companies.
See Mid Continent's Letter, “Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Reviews,” dated October 5, 2018 (Mid Continent Withdrawal Letter).
Partial Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce 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 publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. Because all active requests for administrative review of the 80 companies listed in the Appendix were withdrawn by Mid Continent within 90 days of the date of publication of the Initiation Notice, and no other interested party requested a review of these 80 companies, Commerce is rescinding this review with respect to these companies in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). The administrative review remains active with respect to Liang Chyuan Industrial Co., Ltd., PT Enterprise, Inc. and its affiliated producer Pro-Team Coil Nail Enterprise, Inc. (collectively, PT); Unicatch Industrial Co. Ltd., Hor Liang Industrial Corp., and Romp Coil Nail Industries Inc.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, during the period July 1, 2017, through June 30, 2018, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
Notification to Importers
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 antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order
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(a)(3), which continues to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the proceeding. 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 which 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: February 22, 2019.
