SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 2, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register a 
notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on tin mill products from Japan for the period 
August 1, 2018, through July 31, 2019.\1\ On August 30, 2019, United 
States Steel Corporation (U.S. Steel), the petitioner, timely filed a 
request for review, in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(b).\2\ Pursuant to 
this request, and in accordance with section 751(a) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), we initiated an administrative review of 11 
companies.\3\ On October 29, 2019, the petitioner timely filed a 
withdrawal of request for the administrative review with respect to all 
11 companies.\4\

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

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested 
the review withdraws the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. As 
noted above, the petitioner, the only party to file a request for 
review, withdrew its request by the 90-day deadline. Accordingly, we 
are rescinding the administrative review of the antidumping duty order 
on tin mill Products from Japan for the period August 1, 2018, through 
July 31, 2019, in its entirety.

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to 
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of tin mill 
products from Japan. 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 
appropriate assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the date of 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register.

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 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 Orders

    This notice also serves as a reminder to all 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. 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 Act, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: November 12, 2019.
James Maeder,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
