Partial Rescission of the 2014-2015 Administrative 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 of initiation of the requested review. Given 
that all the withdrawal requests cited above were timely, in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), we are rescinding this review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain pasta from Italy, in part, with 
respect to Andalini, Azienda, Bolognese, I Sapori, La Molisana, La 
Romagna, Pasta Lensi, Ser.com.snc, and Vero Lucano. The instant review

Domenico, F. Divella, Colavita, La Fabbrica, Ligouri, Molino, P.A.P, 
PAM, Pasta Zara, Carmine, DiMartino, Fabianelli, Felicetti, Labor, 
Riscossa, Poiatti, Premiato, and Rustichella.

Assessment

    The Department will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on 
all appropriate entries. For the companies for which this review is 
rescinded, Andalini, Azienda, Bolognese, I Sapori, La Molisana, La 
Romagna, Pasta Lensi, Ser.com.snc, and Vero Lucano, 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, during the period July 1, 2014, through 
June 30, 2015, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(c)(1)(i).
    The Department intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions 
directly to CBP 15 days after 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 and/or countervailing 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 and/or 
countervailing duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled 
antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under 
an APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 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 sections 
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).
