SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 1, 2013, we published a notice of opportunity to request 
an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on PVA from 
Taiwan for the period of review March 1, 2012, through February 28, 
2013.\1\ On May 1, 2013, in response to a request from Chang Chun 
Petrochemical Co., Ltd. (CCPC), in accordance with section 751(a) of 
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), 
we initiated an administrative review of the order on PVA from Taiwan 
with respect to CCPC.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative 
Review, 78 FR 13858 (March 1, 2013).
    \2\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 78 FR 
25418 (May 1, 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On May 24, 2013, CCPC withdrew its request for an administrative 
review.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See letter from CCPC to the Department, ``Polyvinyl Alcohol 
from Taiwan: Withdrawal of Administrative Review Request'' (May 24, 
2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review, ``in whole or in part, if a party that requested 
a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review.'' CCPC 
withdrew its request for review within the 90-day time limit. Because 
we received no other requests for review of CCPC and no other requests 
for the review of the order on PVA from Taiwan with respect to other 
companies subject to the order, we are rescinding the administrative 
review of the order in full. This rescission is in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1).
    Accordingly, the Department intends to issue appropriate assessment 
instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days after 
publication of this notice.

Notifications

    This notice 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 Department's presumption that 
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of doubled antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a 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 issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: June 25, 2013.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
