SUMMARY: On May 27, 2004, in response to timely requests from an 
exporter of, and a U.S. importer of, merchandise subject to the order 
on certain automotive replacement glass (``ARG'') windshields from the 
People's Republic of China (``PRC''), in accordance with section 751(a) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), the Department of 
Commerce (``Department'') published in the Federal Register a notice of 
initiation of this antidumping duty administrative review of sales by 
certain exporters/producers. See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation

entities, the Department is rescinding this review of sales by CSG and 
PNA in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Background

    On April 4, 2002, the Department published in the Federal Register 
the antidumping duty order on ARG windshields from the PRC. See 
Antidumping Duty Order: Automotive Replacement Glass Windshields from 
the People's Republic of China, 67 FR 16087 (April 4, 2002). On April 
1, 2005, the Department published a notice of opportunity to request an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on ARG windshields 
from the PRC for the period April 1, 2004, through March 31, 2005. See 
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended 
Investigation: Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 70 FR 
16799 (April 1, 2005). On April 18, 2005, PNA, an importer of subject 
merchandise, requested an administrative review on behalf of Changchun 
Pilkington Safety Glass Company Limited and Wuhan Yaohua Pilkington 
Safety Glass Company Limited (collectively, ``the Pilkington JVs''), 
producers and exporters from which it imported the subject merchandise 
during the period of review (``POR''). On April 22, 2005, CSG, a 
producer and exporter of subject merchandise, requested an 
administrative review of its sales to the United States during the POR. 
On May 27, 2005, the Department published in the Federal Register a 
notice of the initiation of the antidumping duty administrative review 
of ARG windshields from the PRC for the POR. See Initiation Notice. On 
June 13, 2005, the Department issued antidumping duty questionnaires to 
CSG and PNA. On June 15, 2005, CSG submitted a letter to the Department 
withdrawing its request for an administrative review of sales and 
entries of subject merchandise it exported to the United States during 
the POR. On July 15, 2005, PNA submitted its Section A questionnaire 
response. On August 1, 2005, PNA submitted a letter to the Department 
withdrawing its request for an administrative review of sales and 
entries of subject merchandise it imported from the Pilkington JVs.

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party that requested a 
review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of publication 
of notice of initiation of the requested review. CSG and PNA withdrew 
their respective requests for review within the 90-day time limit and 
no other party requested reviews with respect to these companies. 
Accordingly, we are rescinding this administrative review as to these 
companies and will issue appropriate assessment instructions to the 
U.S. Bureau of Customs and Border Protection with respect to exports 
from CSG and exports from the Pilkington JVs to PNA for the period 
April 1, 2004, through March 31, 2005.

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 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4) of the 
Department's regulations.

    Dated: October 4, 2005.
Barbara E. Tillman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
