SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 1, 2006, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
published in the Federal Register a

Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order on certain
preserved mushrooms from the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) covering the
period February 1, 2005, through
January 31, 2006. See Antidumping or

antidumping duty order on certain
preserved mushrooms from the PRC
with respect to these companies. See
Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Deferral of Administrative
Reviews, 71 FR 17077, 17079 (April 5,
2006) (‘‘Initiation Notice’’).
On April 26, 2006, Raoping CXF
withdrew its request for review. In
addition, in response to the
Department’s April 6, 2006, quantity
and value questionnaire, Blue Field,
Jiufa, and Raoping Yucun each stated
that it had no exports, sales or entries
of subject merchandise to the United
States during the period of review
(‘‘POR’’).3
On July 12, 2006, the Department
placed on the record a list of
manufacturers/exporters of the subject
merchandise for which the Department
initiated administrative reviews, and for
which U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (‘‘CBP’’) suspended
liquidation of subject entries during the
POR. See the July 12, 2006,
memorandum from Brian Smith to the
file entitled, ‘‘2005–2006 Administrative
Review of Certain Preserved Mushrooms
from the PRC: CBP List of Exporters’’
(‘‘July 12, 2006, Memorandum’’).
On August 2, 2006, the Department
stated that the information contained in
the July 12, 2006, Memorandum
corroborated Blue Field’s, Jiufa’s, and
Raoping Yucun’s no–shipment claims
for the POR, and that it intended to
rescind the administrative review with
respect to these companies. See the
August 2, 2006, memorandum from
Brian Smith to the file entitled, ‘‘Intent
to Rescind in Part the Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review on Certain
Preserved Mushrooms from the PRC’’
(‘‘August 2, 2006, Memorandum’’). The
Department also provided parties in this
review until August 9, 2006, to submit
comments on the August 2, 2006,
Memorandum. On August 9, 2006, Jiufa
stated that it did not oppose the
Department’s intention of rescinding
this review with respect to Jiufa. No
other parties submitted comments on
the August 2, 2006, Memorandum.
Partial Rescission of Review
Section 351.213(d)(1) of the
Department’s regulations stipulates that
the Secretary 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,
3 See Blue Field’s April 27, 2006, letter at page
1; Raoping Yucun’s April 26, 2006, letter at page 1;
and Jiufa’s April 18, 2006, letter at page 1.
PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\22AUN1.SGM
unless the Secretary decides that it is
reasonable to extend this time limit. In
this case, Raoping CXF withdrew its
request for review before the 90-day
deadline. Because Raoping CXF was the
only party to request the administrative
review of itself, we are rescinding, in
part, this review of the antidumping
duty order on certain preserved
mushrooms from the PRC with respect
to Raoping CXF.
Section 351.213(d)(3) of the
Department’s regulations states that the
Secretary may rescind an administrative
review, in whole or in part, with respect
to a particular exporter or producer, if
the Secretary concludes that, during the
period covered by the review, there
were no entries, exports, or sales of the
subject merchandise. Therefore, we are
also rescinding this review with respect
to Blue Field, Jiufa, and Raoping Yucun
because the record evidence indicates
that these companies did not export
subject merchandise to the United
States during the POR.
This review will continue with
respect to the other companies listed in
the Initiation Notice.
Assessment
The Department will instruct CBP to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. Antidumping duties
for the rescinded companies, where
applicable, shall be assessed at a rate
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
will issue appropriate assessment
instructions directly to CBP within 15
days of publication of this notice.
This notice is published in
accordance with sections 751 and
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: August 17, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 1, 2006, the Department
published a notice of ‘‘Opportunity to
Request Administrative Review’’ of the
antidumping duty order for the period
of May 1, 2005 through April 30, 2006.
See Antidumping or Countervailing
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation: Opportunity to Request
Administrative Review, 71 FR 25565
(May 1, 2006). On May 31, 2006,
respondent requested a review of the
antidumping duty order on SSPC from
Belgium. Respondent was the only party
to request an administrative review. In
response to this request, on July 3, 2006,
the Department initiated an
antidumping duty administrative review
on SSPC from Belgium. See Initiation
Notice.
On August 8, 2006, pursuant to
section 351.213(d)(1) of the
Department’s regulations, respondent
withdrew its request for an
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on SSPC from
Belgium. No other party requested an
administrative review of this
antidumping duty order.
Rescission of the Administrative
Review
Pursuant to section 351.213(d)(1) of
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
the Department’s regulations, the
Secretary will rescind an administrative
review, in whole or in part, if a party
that requested the review withdraws the
request within 90 days of the date of
publication of notice of initiation of the
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:34 Aug 21, 2006 Jkt 208001
requested review. The initiation notice
for this review was published on July 3,
2006. We received respondent’s
withdrawal request on August 8, 2006,
within 90 days after publication of the
initiation notice. Since respondent
withdrew its request for review of the
antidumping duty order in a timely
manner, and since it was the only party
that requested a review, the Department
is rescinding this administrative review.
Assessment
The Department will instruct U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries. For the company for
which this review is rescinded,
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). The Department will
issue appropriate assessment
instructions to CBP within 15 days of
publication of this notice.
Notification to Importers
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f) 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 the Secretary’s presumption
that reimbursement of antidumping
duties occurred and subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
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 section 351.305(a)(3) of the
Department’s regulation. 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 issued and published in
accordance with section 777(i) of the
Act and section 351.213(d)(4) of the
Department’s regulations.
Dated: August 16, 2006.
