steel sheet and strip (SSSS) in coils from Italy. No other interested 
party requested a review of TKAST. The period of review (POR) is July

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 1, 2004, the Department published a notice of opportunity 
to request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
SSSS in coils from Italy. See Antidumping or Countervailing Order, 
Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request 
Administrative Review, 69 FR 39903. On August 24, 2004, pursuant to a 
request made by TKAST, the Department initiated an administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on SSSS in coils from Italy. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 69 FR 52857 (August 30, 
2004). On September 15, 2004, TKAST timely withdrew its request for an 
administrative review of SSSS in coils from Italy.

Rescission of Review

    If a party that requested a review withdraws its request within 90 
days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the 
requested review, the Secretary will rescind the review pursuant to 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations. In the instant 
proceeding, TKAST withdrew its request for an administrative review 
within 90 days from the publication date of the notice of initiation. 
No other interested party requested a review. Therefore, the Department 
is rescinding the initiation of this administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on SSSS in coils from Italy.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 assumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and subsequent assessment 
of double antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a 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) of the Department's regulations. 
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 the terms of an APO is a 
sanctionable violation.
    This notice is in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the Tariff 
Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 251.213(d)(4) of the Department's 
regulations.

    Dated: September 20, 2004.
Jeffrey A. May,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
