SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On October 14, 2016, based on a timely request for review by 
Jiashan Superpower Tools Co., Ltd (``Superpower''), the Department 
published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on tow-behind lawn 
groomers and parts thereof from the PRC with respect to Superpower, 
covering the period August 1, 2015, through July 31, 2016.\1\ On 
October 19, 2016, Superpower timely withdrew its request for an 
administrative review.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 81 FR 71061 (October 14, 2016) (``Initiation 
Notice'').
    \2\ See Tow-Behind Lawn Groomers from the People's Republic of 
China, A-570-939; Withdrawal of Request for Administrative Review, 
dated October 19, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 party that requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the publication of 
the notice of initiation of the requested review. In this case, 
Superpower timely withdrew its review request by the 90-day deadline, 
and no other party requested an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order.\3\ As a result, we are rescinding the 
administrative review of tow-behind lawn groomers and parts thereof 
from the PRC for the period August 1, 2015, through July 31, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The 90-day deadline to withdraw a request for review was 
January 12, 2017.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assessment

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(``CBP'') to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. 
Because the Department is rescinding this administrative review in its 
entirety, the entries to which this administrative review pertained 
shall be assessed antidumping duties 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 to CBP 15 days after the 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

[[Page 20459]]

result in the Department's presumption that reimbursement of the 
antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled 
antidumping duties.
    This notice also serves as a final reminder to parties subject to 
administrative protective order (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, 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).

     Dated: April 25, 2017.
Gary Taverman,
Associated Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Operations.
