September 13, 2017, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of initiation of an administrative 

review covering each of the nineteen 

producers or exporters named by Mid 

Continent Steel & Wire, Inc. in its July 

31, 2017 review request.4 On September 

28, 2017, Mid Continent Steel & Wire, 

Inc. timely withdrew its administrative 

review request for each of the nineteen 

companies specified in its July 31, 2017 

request.5

Rescission of Review 

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

Commerce will rescind an 

administrative review, in whole or in 

part, if the party, or parties, that 

requested a review withdraws the 

request/s within 90 days of the 

publication of the notice of initiation of 

the requested review. As noted above, 

Mid Continent Steel & Wire, Inc. 

withdrew its request for review by the 

90-day deadline, and no other party 

requested an administrative review of 

this order. Therefore, in response to the 

timely withdrawal of the request for 

review, and in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding 

this review. 

Assessment 

Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) to assess 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. 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 the 

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 POR. 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 Order 

This notice also serves as the only 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

return or destruction 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 terms of an 

APO is a sanctionable violation. 

This notice is published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 

777(i)(1) of the Act, and 19 CFR 

351.213(d)(4).

respectively. 

Period of Investigation 

The period of investigation (POI) is 

April 1, 2016, through September 30, 

2016. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 16, 2017, Commerce 

published in the Federal Register the 

Final Determination that hardwood 

plywood from China is being, or is 

likely to be, sold in the United States at 

less than fair value (LTFV), as provided 

in section 735 of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended (the Act).1 From November 

16, 2017, to November 27, 2017, Cosco 

Star International Co., Ltd. and 

Highland Industries Inc. (Cosco and 

Highland), Linyi Chengen Import and 

Export Co., Ltd. (Chengen), and the 

Coalition for Fair Trade in Hardwood 

Plywood and its individual members 

(collectively, the petitioners) submitted 

ministerial error allegations and rebuttal 

comments concerning the Final 

Determination.2 On December 8, 2017, 

Commerce issued its findings related to 

the ministerial error allegations.3 On 

December 20, 2017, the ITC notified 

Commerce of its final affirmative 

determination that an industry in the 

United States is materially injured 

within the meaning of section 

735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by reason of 

the LTFV imports of hardwood plywood 

from China.4 The ITC also notified 

Commerce of its determination that 

critical circumstances do not exist with 

respect to imports of hardwood 

plywood from China subject to 

Commerce’s final affirmative critical 

circumstances finding. 

Scope of the Order 

For a complete description of the 

scope of the order, see the Appendix to 

this notice. 

Amendment to Final Determination 

Consistent with Commerce’s 

December 8, 2017, findings regarding 

the interested parties’ ministerial error 

allegations, and pursuant to section 

735(e) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.224(e) 

and (f), Commerce is amending the 

Final Determination to reflect the 

correction of ministerial errors it made 

in spelling the name of Cosco’s 

producer, Feixian Xingying Wood Co., 

Ltd (Feixian), and Highland’s producer, 

Weifang Hanlin Timber Products Co., 

Ltd. (Weifang), on the exporter/producer 

list for separate rate recipients.5

As a result of this amended final 

determination, we have corrected the 

spelling of Feixian and Weifang on the 

exporter/producer list as follows: 

Exporter Producer 

Weightedaverage

Cosco Star International Co., Ltd ................................. Feixian Xingying Wood Co., Ltd ................................... 183.36 171.55 

Antidumping Duty Order 

In accordance with section 735(d) of 

the Act, the ITC notified Commerce of 

its final determination in this 

investigation, in which it found that an 

industry in the United States is 

materially injured, within the meaning 

of section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, by 

reason of imports of hardwood plywood 

from China. The ITC also notified 

Commerce of its determination that 

critical circumstances do not exist with 

respect to imports of hardwood 

plywood from China subject to 

Commerce’s final affirmative critical 

circumstances finding. Therefore, in 

accordance with section 735(c)(2) of the 

Act, we are publishing this antidumping 

duty order. Because the ITC determined 

that imports of hardwood plywood from 

China are materially injuring a U.S. 

industry, unliquidated entries of such 

merchandise from China entered or 

withdrawn from warehouse for 

consumption, are subject to the 

assessment of antidumping duties.
