Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party, or parties, 
that requested a review withdraw the request/s within 90 days of the 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. As 
noted above, Steel Dynamics and SSAB Enterprises withdrew their request 
for review by the 90-day deadline, and no other party requested an 
administrative review of this order. Therefore, in response to the 
timely withdrawal of the request for review, and, in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding this administrative review in 
its entirety.

Assessment

    Commerce 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). Commerce intends to issue appraisement instructions 
to

[[Page 37627]]

CBP 15 days after the publication of this notice in the Federal 
Register.

Notification to Importers

    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 POR. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in Commerce's presumption that reimbursement 
of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as the only 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(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 terms of an APO is a sanctionable 
violation.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 771(i)(1) of 
the Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4)

    Dated: July 22, 2019.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
