SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 2, 2024, Commerce published in the Federal Register a notice 
of opportunity to request an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on SS plate in coils from Taiwan.\1\ On May 31, 2024, North 
American Stainless and Outokumpu Stainless USA, LLC, (the domestic 
interested parties) submitted a timely request that Commerce conduct an 
administrative review.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or 
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity to Request Administrative 
Review and Join Annual Inquiry Service List, 89 FR 35778 (May 2, 
2024).
    \2\ See Domestic Interested Parties' Letter, ``Domestic 
Interested Parties' Request for Initiation of Administrative 
Review,'' dated May 31, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On July 5, 2024, Commerce published in the Federal Register a 
notice of initiation of administrative review with respect to imports 
of SS plate in coils exported and/or produced by the companies listed 
in the domestic interested parties' request for review, in accordance 
with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 
and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i).\3\ On July 30, 2024, we placed on the 
record U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data for entries of SS 
plate in coils from Taiwan during the POR, showing no reviewable 
entries, and invited interested parties to comment.\4\ No interested 
party submitted comments to Commerce.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews, 89 FR 55567 (July 5, 2024).
    \4\ See Memorandum, ``Customs Entry Data from U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection,'' dated July 30, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On July 22, 2024, Commerce tolled certain deadlines in this 
administrative proceeding by seven days.\5\ On October 1, 2024, 
Commerce notified all interested parties of its intent to rescind the 
instant review in full because there were no suspended entries of 
subject merchandise by any of the companies subject to this review 
during the POR and invited interested parties to comment.\6\ No 
interested party submitted comments to Commerce. Additionally, on 
December 9, 2024, Commerce tolled the deadline to issue the preliminary 
results in this administrative review by 90 days.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated July 22, 2024.
    \6\ See Commerce's Letter, ``Notice of Intent to Rescind 
Review,'' dated October 1, 2024.
    \7\ See Memorandum, ``Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Proceedings,'' dated December 9, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to 
rescind an administrative review of an antidumping duty order when 
there are no reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR 
for which liquidation is suspended.\8\ Normally, upon completion of an 
administrative review, the suspended entries are liquidated at the 
antidumping duty assessment rate calculated for the review period.\9\ 
Therefore, for an administrative review to be conducted, there must be 
at least one reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce can instruct CBP 
to liquidate at the antidumping duty assessment rate calculated for the 
review period.\10\ As noted above, there were no entries of subject 
merchandise for any of the companies subject to this review during the 
POR. Accordingly, in the absence of suspended entries of subject 
merchandise during the POR, we are hereby rescinding this 
administrative review, in its entirety, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(3).

Assessment

    Commerce will instruct 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 
assessment instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 days after the date 
of publication of this rescission notice in the Federal Register.

administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under

notification of the return or destruction of APO materials or 
conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to
