67116 (November 8, 2013). 

Department published a notice of 

initiation of administrative review with 

respect to 153 companies.3 On August 

27, 2013, Hong Kong Gree notified the 

Department that it had no shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the period of review 

(POR).4 On November 8, 2013, we 

published a notice of intent to rescind 

this administrative review with respect 

to Hong Kong Gree, and invited 

interested parties to comment.5 We 

received no comments, and have 

determined that the review of Hong 

Kong Gree should be rescinded. 

Partial Rescission of Review 

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the 

Department may rescind an 

administrative review, 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 to the United 

States by that producer. Hong Kong Gree 

submitted a letter to the Department 

certifying that it had no shipments of 

subject merchandise to the United 

States during the POR. No parties 

commented on Hong Kong Gree’s claim 

of no shipments. 

Previously, on August 2, 2013, we 

released the results of a U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) data query, 

which indicated that Hong Kong Gree 

had no suspended entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR.6 After 

receipt of Hong Kong Gree’s no 

shipment certification, we sent a ‘‘no 

shipments inquiry’’ message to CBP, 

which posted the message on September 

20, 2013.7 The Department did not 

receive any information from CBP 

contrary to Hong Kong Gree’s claim of 

no shipments of subject merchandise to 

the United States during the POR. 

Based on our analysis of all the 

information on the record, we determine 

that Hong Kong Gree had no shipments 

or entries of subject merchandise to the 

United States during the POR. 

Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(3), and consistent with our 

practice,8 we are rescinding the review 

for Hong Kong Gree. We will continue 

this administrative review with respect 

to those companies for which a review 

was requested and not subsequently 

withdrawn.9

We are issuing this notice in 

accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 

CFR 351.213(d)(4).

and publishing information relevant to 

the function of markets for consumer

and civil rights, and consumer financial 

products or services and representatives 

of depository institutions that primarily 

serve underserved communities, and 

representatives of communities that 

have been significantly impacted by 

higher-priced mortgage loans, and seek 

representation of the interests of 

covered persons and consumers, 

without regard to party affiliation.’’ The 

determinants of ‘‘expertise’’ shall

to consumers.

review applications and will not answer

given consideration for review of 

membership on the Board and Councils.
