SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 3, 2019, Commerce published a notice of opportunity to 
request an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on CR 
Steel from the UK for the period of review (POR) September 1, 2018, 
through August 31, 2019.\1\ On September 30, 2019, the petitioners \2\

with respect to Liberty Performance Steels Ltd., and Tata Steel UK 
Ltd.\3\ On November 12, 2019, in accordance with section 751(a) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), 
we initiated an administrative review of the order on CR Steel from the

Products from the United Kingdom/Request For Administrative

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

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.'' The 
petitioners withdrew their request for review within 90-days of the 
publication date of the Initiation Notice. Because we received no other 
requests for review of Liberty Performance Steels Ltd. and Tata Steel 
UK Ltd., and no other requests for the review of the order on CR Steel 
from the UK with respect to other companies subject to the order, we 
are rescinding the administrative review of the order in its entirety, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Assessment

    Commerce intends to instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries of CR 
Steel products from the UK 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 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: February 18, 2020.
James Maeder,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
