SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 9, 2008, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the antidumping duty order on folding metal tables and chairs 
(``FMTCs'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See 
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended 
Investigation: Opportunity to Request Administrative Review, 73 FR 
32557 (June 9, 2008). On June 23, 2008, Meco Corporation (``Meco''), a 
domestic producer of the like product, requested that the Department 
conduct an administrative review of Dongguan Shichang Metals Factory 
Co. Ltd. (``Shichang''). The Department published a notice of 
initiation of the antidumping duty administrative review of FMTCs from 
the PRC for the period June 1, 2007, through May 31, 2008. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews, Request for Revocation in Part, and Deferral of Administrative 
Review, 73 FR 44220 (July 30, 2008).

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the 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. On 
August 11, 2008, Meco timely withdrew its request for an administrative 
review of Shichang (i.e., within 90 days of the publication of the 
notice of initiation of this review). Because Meco was the only 
requesting party of an administrative review with respect to Shichang, 
the Department hereby rescinds the administrative review of FMTCs with 
respect to Shichang, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). The 
Department intends to issue assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection 15 days after the publication of this notice of 
partial rescission of administrative review.

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their 
responsibility under section 351.402(f) of the Department's regulations 
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 
assumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and 
subsequent assessment of double antidumping duties.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
777(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: September 19, 2008.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
