Carbazole Violet Pigment 23 From the People's Republic of China: 
Final Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On September 6, 2011, the Department of Commerce (the 
Department) published the preliminary intent to rescind the 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet 
pigment 23 (CVP-23) from the People's Republic of China (PRC).\1\ This 
administrative review covers Toyo Ink Mfg. America, LLC and Toyo Ink 
Mfg. Co., Ltd. (collectively, Toyo) for the December 1, 2009, through 
November 30, 2010, period of review (POR). Toyo provided a 
certification of no sales. As the Department's review of U.S. Customs 
and Border Protection (CBP) import data confirmed that there

were no reviewable entries of the subject merchandise during the POR, 
we preliminarily determined that Toyo did not have reviewable entries 
during the POR. Therefore, because there were no entries on which to 
assess duties, the Department preliminarily determined to rescind this 
review and gave interested parties an opportunity to comment. We did 
not receive comments on the Preliminary Results. We are therefore 
rescinding the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
CVP-23 from the PRC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    As noted above, on September 6, 2011, the Department published in 
the Federal Register the Preliminary Results of the administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on CVP-23 from the PRC. The 
Department did not receive comments from interested parties on our 
Preliminary Results.

Scope of the Order

    The merchandise covered by this order is carbazole violet pigment 
23 identified as Color Index No. 51319 and Chemical Abstract No. 6358-
30-1, with the chemical name of diindolo [3,2-b:3',2'-m] 
triphenodioxazine, 8,18-dichloro-5, 15-diethy-5,15-dihydro-, and 
molecular formula of C 34 H 22 C l2 N 4 O 2.\2\ The subject merchandise 
includes the crude pigment in any form (e.g., dry powder, paste, wet 
cake) and finished pigment in the form of presscake and dry color. 
Pigment dispersions in any form (e.g., pigments dispersed in 
oleoresins, flammable solvents, water) are not included within the 
scope of this order. The merchandise subject to this order is 
classifiable under subheading 3204.17.9040 of the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is 
provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description 
of the scope of the order is dispositive.

    \2\ The brackets do not indicate ``business proprietary 
information'' but rather are part of the chemical formula.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of the Review

    Based on its analysis of the record information, the Department 
preliminarily determined that the merchandise in the CBP data and the 
entry documentation on the record was not subject to the scope of the 
antidumping duty order on CVP-23 from the PRC. Accordingly, in the 
Preliminary Results, the Department indicated that it intended to 
rescind this administrative review because there was no information on 
the record which indicated that Toyo made sales, shipments, or entries 
to the United States of subject merchandise during the POR. We did not 
receive comments concerning the Preliminary Results. Therefore, the 
Department continues to find that the merchandise reflected in the CBP 
data and entry documentation on the record is not subject to the scope 
of the antidumping duty order on CVP-23 from the PRC. Furthermore, 
because Toyo is the only company subject to this administrative review, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), and consistent with our 
practice,\3\ we are rescinding this review of the antidumping duty 
order on CVP-23 from the PRC for the December 1, 2009, through November 
30, 2010 POR. The Department intends to instruct CBP fifteen days after 
the publication of this notice to liquidate such entries with respect 
to the PRC-wide entity.

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a final 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 the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Administrative Protective Orders

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (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 protective order is hereby 
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO 
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended and 
19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: January 3, 2012.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
