SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 2, 2013, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register a notice of ``Opportunity to Request 
Administrative Review'' of the antidumping duty order on 1-
hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) from India for the 
period of review (POR) of April 1, 2012, through March 31, 2013.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review, 78 FR 19645, 19646 (April 2, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On April 29, 2013, in accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b)(2), the 
Department received a timely request from Aquapharm Chemicals Pvt Ltd 
(Aquapharm), a producer and exporter of subject merchandise, to conduct 
an administrative review of its exports to the United States during the 
POR.\2\ No other interested party requested an administrative review of 
the antidumping duty order on HEDP from India for the POR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See April 29, 2013, letter from Aquapharm to the Department.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On June 3, 2013, the Department published in the Federal Register a 
notice of initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on HEDP from India.\3\ On June 4, 2013, Aquapharm timely 
withdrew its request for a review.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 78 FR 
33052, 33054 (June 3, 2013).
    \4\ See June 4, 2013, letter from Aquapharm to the Department.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department 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 notice of initiation of the requested review. Aquapharm 
withdrew its request for review before the 90-day deadline, and no 
other party requested an administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order. Therefore, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding 
this review in whole.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. 
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)(1)(i). The Department intends to issue appropriate 
assessment instructions directly to CBP 15 days after the date of 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as the only 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 the only reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely written 
notification of the return or destruction of APO materials, or 
conversion to judicial protective order, is hereby requested. Failure 
to comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a 
sanctionable violation.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: June 24, 2013.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
