SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 30, 2004, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
received a timely request from Carpenter Technology Corporation 
(Carpenter), the sole petitioner in the instant proceeding, to conduct 
an administrative review of sales made by Walsin Lihwa Corporation 
(Walsin) and any of its affiliated parties. In that request, Carpenter 
specifically identified Outokumpu Stainless (Outokumpu) as an affiliate 
of Walsin. On October 22, 2004, the Department initiated an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on stainless steel 
wire rod from Taiwan for the period September 1, 2003, through August 
31, 2004, and published a notice in the Federal Register. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews, 69 FR 62022 (October 22, 2004). On November 4, 2004, Carpenter 
informed the Department that in that mis-identified Outokumpu on 
November 12, 2004. On December 23, 2004, Carpenter withdrew its request 
for an administrative review of Walsin.

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review if a party that requested the review withdraws 
its request within 90 days of the publication date of the notice of 
initiation thereof. Because Carpenter withdrew its review request 
within the 90-day time limit, the Department is rescinding this review 
and will issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to U.S. 
Customs and Border Protection within 15 days of 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 to Interested Parties

    This notice 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). 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 the terms of an APO is a sanctionable 
violation.
    This notice is published in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4) 
and section 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

    Dated: February 18, 2005.
Gary Taverman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
