SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 4, 2008, the Department published in the Federal 
Register its notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the antidumping duty order on certain preserved mushrooms from the 
People's Republic of China for the period February 1, 2007 to January 
31, 2008. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review, 
73 FR 6477 (February 4, 2008). In response, on February, 29, 2008, 
FujianYu Xung Fruit and Vegetable Foodstuff Development Co. (Yu Xing) 
submitted a request for an administrative review. Petitioners in this 
case did not request an administrative review. On March 31, 2008, the 
Department initiated an administrative review of Yu Xing. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews, Request for Revocation in Part, and Deferral of Administrative 
Review, 73 FR 16837 (March 31, 2008). Yu Xing submitted a letter 
withdrawing its request for an administrative review on June 30, 
2008.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The 90th day after the initiation of the review was Sunday, 
June 29, 2008; accordingly, Yu Xing submitted its withdrawal letter 
the following business day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Section 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations provides that 
the Department will rescind an administrative review if the party that 
requested the review withdraws its request for review within 90 days of 
the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the requested 
review, or withdraws at a later date if the Department determines it is 
reasonable to extend the time limit for withdrawing the request. In 
response to Yu Xing's timely withdrawal of its request for an 
administrative review, and pursuant to section 351.213(d)(1) of the 
Department's regulations, the Department hereby rescinds the 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain 
preserved mushrooms from the People's Republic of China for the period 
February 1, 2007, to January 31, 2008.
    The Department will 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 Yu Xing at the cash deposit rate in effect at 
the time of entry.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final 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 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 section 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 published in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of 
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
