See, Initiation of Antidumping and

Countervailing Duty Administrative

Reviews, 65 FR 4228 (January 26, 2000).

On April 25, 2000, Petitioner requested

that it be allowed to withdraw its

request for a review and that the review

be terminated.

Rescission of Review

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the

Department will rescind an

administrative review if a 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. Because the

submitted within the 90-day time limit,

and there were no requests for review

from other interested parties, we are

rescinding this review. We will issue

appropriate appraisement instructions

directly to the U.S. Customs Service.

Background

On January 11, 2000, the Department

published in the Federal Register (65

FR 1597) the preliminary results and

partial rescission of its administrative

on stainless steel wire rod from India

timely requests for withdrawal of their

review requests. We invited parties to

comment on our preliminary results of

review.

We have now completed the

administrative review in accordance

Analysis of Comments Received

All issues raised in the case and

rebuttal briefs by parties to this

administrative review are addressed in

the ‘‘Issues and Decision Memorandum’’

(‘‘Decision Memorandum’’) from Joseph

A. Spetrini, Deputy Assistant Secretary,

Import Administration, to Troy H.

Cribb, Acting Assistant Secretary for

Import Administration, dated May, 10,

2000, which is hereby adopted in this

notice. A list of the issues which parties

have raised and to which we have

responded, all of which are in the

Decision Memorandum, is attached to

this notice as an Appendix. Parties can

find a complete discussion of all issues

raised in this review and the

corresponding recommendations in this

public memorandum which is on file in

the Central Records Unit, Room B–099

of the main Department building. In

addition, a complete version of the

Decision Memorandum can be accessed

directly on the Web at www.ita.doc.gov/

import—admin/records/frn. The paper

copy and electronic version of the

Decision Memorandum are identical in

content.

Changes Since the Preliminary Results

Based on our analysis of comments

received, we have changed our results

from the preliminary results of review.

For the final results of review, Viraj’s

duty drawback claims have not been

allowed.

Final Results of Review

We determine that the following

percentage margin exists for the period

December 1, 1997, through November

30, 1998:

Manufacturer/exporter/reseller Margin

(percent)

Viraj Impoexpo, Ltd .................. 11.88

The Department shall determine, and

Customs shall assess, antidumping

duties on all appropriate entries. The

Department will issue appraisement

instructions directly to the Customs

Service. In accordance with 19 CFR

351.212(b), we have calculated exporter/

importer-specific assessment rates. We

divided the total dumping margins for

the reviewed sales by the entered

quantity of those reviewed sales for

Viraj. We will direct Customs to assess

the resulting unit margins against the

entered quantity for the subject

merchandise on each of Viraj’s entries

during the review period.

Cash Deposit Requirements

The following deposit requirements

will be effective upon publication of

this notice of final results of

administrative review for all shipments

of stainless steel wire rod from India

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,

for consumption on or after the date of

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 96 / Wednesday, May 17, 2000 / Notices 31303

publication, as provided by section

751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) The cash deposit

rate for Viraj will be the rate shown

above; (2) for previously reviewed or

investigated companies not listed above,

the cash deposit rate will continue to be

the company-specific rate published for

the most recent period; (3) if the

exporter is not a firm covered in this

review, a prior review, or the original

less-than-fair-value (LTFV)

investigation, but the manufacturer is,

the cash deposit rate will be the rate

established for the most recent period

for the manufacturer of the

merchandise; and (4) if neither the

exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm

covered in these or any previous

reviews conducted by the Department,

the cash deposit rate will be the ‘‘all

others’’ rate, which is 48.80 percent.

The cash deposit rate has been

determined on the basis of the selling

price to the first unaffiliated U.S.

customer. These deposit requirements

shall remain in effect until publication

of the final results of the next

administrative review.

Notification of Interested Parties

This notice also 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 the

Secretary’s presumption that

reimbursement of the antidumping

duties occurred and the subsequent

assessment of double antidumping

duties.

This notice also serves as a reminder

to parties subject to administrative

protective orders (‘‘APOs’’) of their

responsibility concerning the return or

destruction of proprietary information

disclosed under APO in accordance

with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues

to govern business proprietary

information in this segment of the

proceeding. 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.

We are issuing and publishing this

determination and notice in accordance

with sections 751(a)(1) and 771(i) of the

Act.

Dated: May 10, 2000.
