SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 4, 2017, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
stainless steel wire rod (SSWR) from India for the period of review 
(POR) December 1, 2016, through November 30, 2017.\1\ On December 29, 
2017, in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b), Isinox Limited (Isinox) 
requested an administrative review of the order with respect to its 
exports of subject merchandise to the United States.\2\ On February 23, 
2018, in accordance with section 751(a) the Act and 19 CFR 
351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative review of the order on 
SSWR from India with respect to Isinox.\3\ On April 6, 2018, Isinox 
timely withdrew its request for an administrative review.\4\ No other 
party requested a review.

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce 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.'' Isinox 
withdrew its request for review within the 90-day time limit. Because 
Commerce received no other requests for review of Isinox, and no other 
requests for the review of the order on SSWR from India, we are 
rescinding the administrative review of the order in full, in 
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of SSWR products 
from India during the POR at rates equal to the cash deposit rate 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). Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment 
instructions to CBP 15 days after publication of this notice in the 
Federal Register.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility

[[Page 17803]]

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 Commerce's presumption that reimbursement 
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled 
antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    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: April 19, 2018.
James Maeder,
Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
