Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that 
requested a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice initiating the review. Marsan, Bellini and 
Eksper withdrew their request for review within the 90-day deadline. No 
other interested party requested an administrative review of Marsan, 
Bellini, Eksper, or any other entity. Therefore, in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review in its entirety.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess countervailing duties on all entries of pasta from 
Turkey at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated countervailing 
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 appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days 
after the date of publication of this notice of rescission of 
administrative review.

administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
an 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
