Background

    On July 1, 2011, the Department of Commerce (Department) published 
a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty (AD) order on polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet 
and strip from India covering the period July 1, 2010, through June 30, 
2011. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review, 
76 FR 38609, 38610 (July 1, 2011). The Department received a timely 
request from Petitioners \1\ for an AD administrative review of five 
companies: Ester Industries Limited (Ester), Garware Polyester Ltd. 
(Garware), Jindal Poly Films Limited of India (Jindal), Polyplex

Corporation Ltd. (Polyplex), and SRF Limited (SRF). The Department also 
received timely requests for an AD review from Vacmet India Ltd. 
(Vacmet) and Polypacks Industries of India (Polypacks). On August 26, 
2011, the Department published a notice of initiation of administrative 
review with respect to Ester, Garware, Jindal, Polyplex, SRF, Vacmet, 
and Polypacks. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 76 FR 53404 
(August 26, 2011). On August 23, 2011, Vacmet and Polypacks withdrew 
their requests for a review. The Department published a rescission, in 
part, of the AD administrative review with respect to Vacmet and 
Polypacks on September 20, 2011. See Polyethylene Terephthalate Film, 
Sheet and Strip From India: Rescission, In Part, of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 76 FR 58244 (September 20, 2011). On November 
25, 2011, Petitioners withdrew their request for AD administrative 
reviews of Ester and Garware.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Petitioners are DuPont Teijin Films, Mitsubishi Polyester 
Film, Inc., SKC, Inc., and Toray Plastics (America), Inc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission, in Part

    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 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. 
Petitioners' withdrawal was submitted within the 90-day period and thus 
is timely.\2\ Because Petitioners' withdrawal of their requests for 
review is timely and because no other party requested a review of Ester 
and Garware, we are rescinding this review with respect to these 
companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). The administrative 
review of Jindal, Polyplex, and SRF continues.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The 90th day fell on November 24, 2011, a non-business day. 
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.303(b), if an applicable due date falls on a 
non-business day, the Department will accept as timely a document 
that is filed on the next business day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. Subject 
merchandise of Ester and Garware will be assessed antidumping duties 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)(1)(i). The Department 
intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 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 doubled antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding 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.
    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: January 19, 2012.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
