SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 2, 2007, the Department published a notice of 
opportunity to request an administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on certain preserved mushrooms from the PRC for the POR. See

National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Import and Export Corporation, 
Fujian Yu Xing Fruit and Vegetable Foodstuff Development Co., and

antidumping duty order on ceratin preserved mushrooms from the PRC. See 
Initiation Notice. On April 17, 2007, all five companies which 
requested the review timely withdrew their requests for administrative 
reviews.

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 the notice of initiation. In this case, the companies listed above 
withdrew their requests for administrative reviews of their exports of 
certain preserved mushrooms for the POR, within 90 days from the date 
of initiation. No other interested party requested a review of these 
companies. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain preserved mushrooms from the PRC 
covering the POR, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries for 
China Processed Food Import and Export Company, COFCO (Zhangzhou) Food 
Industrial Co. Ltd., China National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Import 
and Export Corporation, Fujian Yu Xing Fruit and Vegetable Foodstuff 
Development Co., and Xiamen Jiahua Import and Export Trading Co., Ltd. 
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 directly to CBP 15 days after of 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) 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.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders (``APOs'')

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to APOs of 
their responsibility concerning the return or destruction of 
proprietary information disclosed under an 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 in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the Tariff 
Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4) of the Department's 
regulations.

    Dated: April 26, 2007.
