Polyethylene Terephthalate Film Sheet and Strip from India: 
Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 4, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Martha Douthit, Office 6, Import 
Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 14\th\ Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 
20230. Telephone: (202) 482-5050.

Background

    On July 1, 2002, the Department of Commerce (the Department), 
published the antidumping duty order on polyethylene terephthalate film 
sheet and strip (PET Film) from India. See Notice of Amended Final 
Antidumping Duty Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and 
Antidumping Duty Order: Polyethylene Terephthalate Film, Sheet, and 
Strip from India, 67 FR 44175 (July 1, 2002).
    On July 11, 2008, the Department published in the Federal Register 
a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on PET Film from India. See Antidumping or 
Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation; 
Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 73 FR 39948 (July 11, 
2008). On July 15, 2008, Jindal Poly Films Limited (Jindal), an Indian 
producer and exporter to the United States of PET Film, timely 
requested that the Department conduct an administrative review of 
Jindal. Jindal was the only party to request this administrative 
review. On August 26, 2008, the Department published a notice of 
initiation of the antidumping duty administrative review of PET Film 
from India for the period of review, July 1, 2007, through June 30, 
2008. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 73 FR 50308 (August 26, 2008). On September 25, 
2008, Jindal withdrew its request for an administrative review.

Rescission of Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary 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 of the requested review. Jindal withdrew 
its request before the 90-day deadline and no other party requested an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on PET Film from 
India. Therefore, in response to Jindal's withdrawal of their request 
for an administrative review pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the 
Department hereby rescinds the administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on PET Film from India.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For the 
company for which this review is rescinded, the antidumping duties 
shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated 
antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212 
(c)(1)(i). The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of publication of this 
rescission of administrative review.

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 double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protection orders (``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/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 
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(4).
