and Tube and its individual members 2

(collectively, the petitioners), timely 

requested that Commerce conduct an 

administrative review of this 

antidumping duty order with respect to 

Golden Dragon Precise Copper Tube 

Group, Inc. (Golden Dragon).3 On 

January 11, 2018, Commerce initiated an 

administrative review with respect to 

Golden Dragon, in accordance with 

section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 

351.221(c)(1)(i).4 On March 29, 2018, 

the petitioners timely withdrew their 

request for an administrative review.5

Rescission of Administrative Review 

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

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the party that requested a review 

withdraws the request within 90 days of 

the date of publication of the notice of 

initiation of the requested review. In 

this case, the petitioners withdrew their 

request for review by the 90-day 

deadline. Because Commerce received 

no other request for a review of the 

antidumping duty order with respect to 

Golden Dragon, and no other requests 

were made for a review of the 

antidumping duty order with respect to 

other companies, we are rescinding this 

administrative review covering the 

period November 1, 2016, through 

October 31, 2017, in accordance with 19 

CFR 213(d)(1). 

Assessment 

Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries of copper pipe and tube from 

China during the POR. 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 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as the only 

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 

presumption that reimbursement of 

antidumping duties occurred and the 

subsequent assessment of double 

antidumping duties. 

Notification Regarding Administrative 

Protective Orders 

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), which 

continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. 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 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).

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

International Trade Administration 

Annual U.S. Industry Program at the 

International Atomic Energy Agency 

(IAEA) General Conference; Meeting 

AGENCY: International Trade 

Administration, U.S. Department of 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of 11th Annual U.S. 

Industry Program at the International 

Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) General 

Conference. 

Mission Description 

The United States Department of 

Commerce’s (DOC) International Trade 

Administration (ITA), with participation 

from the U.S. Departments of Energy 

and State, is organizing the 11th Annual 

U.S. Industry Program at the 

International Atomic Energy Agency 

(IAEA) General Conference, to be held 

September 16–19, 2018, in Vienna, 

Austria. The IAEA General Conference 

is the premier global meeting of civil 

nuclear policymakers and typically 

attracts senior officials and industry 

representatives from all 162 Member 

States. The U.S. Industry Program is 

part of the U.S. Department of 

Commerce’s (DOC) Civil Nuclear Trade 

Initiative, a U.S. Government effort to 

help U.S. civil nuclear companies 

identify and capitalize on commercial 

civil nuclear opportunities around the 

world. The purpose of the program is to 

help the U.S. nuclear industry promote 

its services and technologies to an 

international audience, including senior 

energy policymakers from current and 

emerging markets as well as IAEA staff. 

Representatives of U.S. companies 

from across the U.S. civil nuclear 

supply chain are eligible to participate. 

In addition, organizations providing 

related services to the industry, such as 

universities, research institutions, and 

U.S. civil nuclear trade associations, are 

eligible for participation. The mission 

will help U.S. participants gain market 

insights, make industry contacts, 

solidify business strategies, and identify 

or advance specific projects with the 

goal of increasing U.S. civil nuclear 

exports to a wide variety of countries 

interested in nuclear energy. 

The schedule includes: Meetings with 

foreign delegations and discussions 

with senior U.S. Government officials 

on important civil nuclear topics 

including regulatory, technology and 

standards, liability, public acceptance, 

export controls, financing, infrastructure 

development, and R&D cooperation. 

Past U.S. Industry Programs have 

included participation by the U.S. 

Secretary of Energy, the Chairman of the 

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

(NRC) and senior U.S. Government 

officials from the Departments of 

Commerce, Energy, State, the ExportImport Bank of the United States and 

the National Security Council. 

There are significant opportunities for 

U.S. businesses in the global civil 

nuclear energy market. With 55 reactors 

currently under construction in 15 

countries and 160 nuclear plant projects 

planned in 27 countries over the next 8– 

10 years, this translates to a market 

demand for equipment and services 

totaling $500–740 billion over the next 

ten years. This mission contributes to 

DOC’s Civil Nuclear Trade Initiative by 

assisting U.S. businesses in entering or 

expanding in international markets.

Mission Setting 

The IAEA General Conference is the 

premier global meeting of civil nuclear 

policymakers, and typically attracts over 

1,200 senior officials and industry 

representatives from all 162 IAEA 

Member States. As such, it is an 

opportunity to highlight the breadth and 

depth of the U.S. civil nuclear sector to 

foreign energy policymakers and 

potential customers. The U.S. Industry 

Program will provide opportunities for 

U.S. industry representatives to meet 

with U.S. Government representatives 

and discuss key issues of interest for 

civil nuclear exporters. The program 

will also feature briefings from foreign 

government representatives, providing 

opportunities for participants to develop 

contacts in potential export markets. 

Mission Goals 

The purpose of the U.S. Industry 

Program is to highlight the benefits of 

U.S. civil nuclear technology to foreign 

decision makers in key export markets 

and to enable representatives from the 

U.S. public and private sector to discuss 

U.S. industry’s role in the safe and 

secure expansion of civil nuclear power 

worldwide. U.S. participants will also 

have the opportunity to network and 

build relationships in the global civil 

nuclear sector, interact with foreign 

government and industry officials, and 

learn more about current and future 

project opportunities. Foreign 

government participants will hear about 

the expertise that U.S. industry has 

amassed in this sector and may learn 

how to better partner with U.S. industry 

on future nuclear power projects. 

Mission Scenario 

On Sunday September 16, trade 

mission participants will have one-onone meetings with visiting ITA staff 

from top export markets as part of ITA’s 

Showtime Program (meetings are subject 

to availability of visiting ITA staff) and 

an evening U.S. Industry Welcome 

Reception. On Monday, September 17, 

mission participants will begin with a 

Policymaker’s Roundtable and an 

interagency U.S. Government briefing 

featuring discussion sessions and 

remarks by senior officials from the U.S. 

Departments of Commerce, Energy and 

State, and the NRC. In addition, on 

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, 

meetings with foreign delegation 

officials from some of the top markets 

for U.S. civil nuclear exports will be 

scheduled. Approximately ten such 

meetings will be planned throughout 

the duration of the event. Throughout 

the weeklong conference, participants 

can attend IAEA side meetings using 

their official IAEA badges, which will 

be provided as part of the program.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) is conducting an 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on aluminum 

extrusions from the People’s Republic of 

China (China) for the period of review 

(POR) May 1, 2016, through April 30, 

2017. We determine that 25 of the 

companies for which an administrative 

review was requested, and not 

withdrawn, failed to demonstrate 

eligibility for a separate rate; therefore, 

each is part of the China-wide entity. 

We also determine that Guangdong Xin 

Wei Aluminum Products Co., Ltd., Xin 

Wei Aluminum Company Limited, and 

Xin Wei Aluminum Co. Ltd. made no 

entries, exports, or sales of the subject 

merchandise during the POR covered by 

this administrative review.
