Certain Activated Carbon From the People's Republic of China: 

Notice of Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review



AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce.



DATES: Effective Date: July 7, 2011.



FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Catherine Bertrand, AD/CVD Operations, 

Office 9, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 

U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., 

Washington, DC 20230; telephone--(202) 482-3207.



Background



    On May 27, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 

published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an 

administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain 

activated carbon from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') covering 

the period April 1, 2010, to March 31, 2011. See Initiation of 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 76 FR 

30912, 30913 (May 27, 2011) (``Initiation Notice'').

    On June 10, 2011, Petitioners \1\ withdrew their request for an 

administrative review for the following companies: Calgon Carbon 

(Tianjin) Co., Ltd. (``CCT'') and Ningxia Huahui Activated Carbon Co., 

Ltd. (``Huahui''). On June 10, 2011, Huahui withdrew its request for a 

review of itself that was originally submitted on April 29, 2011. Then, 

on June 10, 2011, Albemarle Corporation (``Albemarle''), a company we 

previously determined to be a wholesaler of the domestic-like product, 

withdrew its request for review of CCT previously submitted on April 

29, 2011. Likewise, on June 15, 2011, CCT withdrew its request for a 

review of itself originally submitted on April 29, 2011.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------



    \1\ Petitioners are Calgon Carbon Corporation & Norit Americas 

Inc., collectively.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Partial Rescission



    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested 

the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 

publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. The 

aforementioned requests for review were withdrawn within the 90-day 

period. Because the requests for review were timely withdrawn and 

because no other party requested a review of the aforementioned 

companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are partially 

rescinding this review with respect to CCT and Huahui.



Assessment Rates



    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Both 

CCT and Huahui have a separate rate from a prior segment of this 

proceeding; therefore, 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)(2). Accordingly, the Department 

intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 

days after publication of this notice for CCT and Huahui.



Notification to Importers



    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this 

review is being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, 

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 the antidumping duties occurred and 

the subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.



Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders



    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective orders (``APO'') of their responsibility 

concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under 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



[[Page 39852]]



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 section 

777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(4).



    Dated: June 30, 2011.

Christian Marsh,

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Operations.
