Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

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

DATES: Effective Date: June 28, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jacqueline Arrowsmith or Milton Koch, 
AD/CVD Operations, Office 6, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution 
Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-5255 or (202) 
482-2584, respectively.

Background

    On March 1, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the antidumping duty order on circular welded carbon steel pipes and 
tubes from Thailand. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, 
Finding, or Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request 
Administrative Review, 75 FR 9162 (March 1, 2010). On March 31, 2010, 
we received a timely request from Saha Thai Steel Pipe Company, Ltd. 
(Saha Thai) to conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on circular welded carbon steel pipes and tubes from Thailand for 
the period March 1, 2009 through February 28, 2010. In accordance with 
19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), the Department published a notice initiating 
an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular 
welded carbon steel pipes and tubes from Thailand. See Initiation of 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request 
for Revocation in Part, 75 FR 22107 (April 27, 2010).

Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

    The Department's regulations provide 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. See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). On 
May 28, 2010, Saha Thai submitted a letter withdrawing its request of 
the review within the 90-day deadline. No other party requested a 
review of the order. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on circular welded 
carbon steel pipes and tubes from Thailand for the period March 1, 2009 
through February 28, 2010. The Department intends to issue appropriate 
assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days 
after the date of publication of this notice.

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 protective orders (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, 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 issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).

     Dated: June 22, 2010.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
