Background

    On September 8, 2016, the Department published in the Federal 
Register a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of 
the antidumping duty order on certain magnesia carbon bricks from 
Mexico for the POR.\1\ The Department received a timely request from 
the Magnesia Carbon Bricks Fair Trade Committee (the petitioner), in 
accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b), to conduct an administrative review 
of this antidumping duty order.\2\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Administrative 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 the notice of initiation of the requested review. The 
petitioner withdrew its request for review by the 90-day deadline, and 
no other party requested an administrative review of this order. 
Therefore, we are rescinding the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on magnesia carbon bricks from Mexico covering 
the period September 1, 2015, through August 31, 2016.

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 41 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 may result in the presumption that reimbursement 
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Orders

    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 777(i)(1) of 
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: February 10, 2017.

Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
