Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and

(202) 482-0408 and (202) 482-0649, respectively.

Background

    On October 29, 2002, the Department published in the Federal 
Register an antidumping duty order on carbon and certain alloy steel 
wire rod (steel wire rod) from Canada. See Notice of Amended Final 
Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty 
Order: Carbon and Certain Alloy Steel Wire Rod from Canada, 67 FR 65944 
(October 29, 2002) (Order).
    On October 1, 2007, the Department issued a notice of opportunity 
to request an administrative review of this order for the October 1, 
2006 through September 30, 2007 period of review. See Antidumping or 
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation; 
Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 72 FR 55741 (October 1, 
2007). Administrative reviews were requested for Ivaco Rolling Mills 
2004 (formerly Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P.), Sivaco Ontario, a division of 
Sivaco Wire Group 2004 L.P. (formerly Ivaco, Inc.), and Mittal Canada 
Inc. (formerly Ispat Sidbec Inc.). On November 26, 2007, the Department 
initiated a review of these companies. See Initiation of Antidumping 
and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for 
Revocation in Part, 72 FR 65938 (November 26, 2007).

Rescission in Part, of Administrative Review

    The applicable regulation, 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), states that if a 
party that requested an administrative review withdraws the request 
within 90 days of the publication of the notice of initiation of the 
requested review, the Secretary will rescind the review in whole or in 
part. Mittal Canada Inc. (formerly Ispat Sidbec Inc.) made a timely 
withdrawal of its request for an administrative review within the 90-
day deadline. Because no other party requested an administrative review 
of that company, we are rescinding the review with regard to Mittal 
Canada Inc. (formerly Ispat Sidbec Inc.).[FEDREG][VOL]*[/VOL][NO]*[/

    The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions 
directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 15 days after the 
publication of this notice. The Department will direct CBP to assess 
antidumping duties for this company at the cash deposit rate in effect 
on the date of entry for entries during the period October 1, 2006, to 
September 30, 2007.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under section 351.402(f) of the Department's regulations 
to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties 
prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this period of 
time. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the 
Secretary's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties 
occurred and subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders

    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 section 351.305(a)(3) of the Department's 
regulations. 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 sanctionable violation.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
351.213(d)(4) of the Department's regulations and sections 751(a)(1) 
and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

    Dated: December 17, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, for Import Administration.
