SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 3, 2019, Commerce published in the Federal Register a
notice of ``Opportunity to Request an Administrative Review'' of the
antidumping duty (AD) order on cold drawn mechanical tubing from Italy
for the period November 22, 2017, through May 31, 2019.\1\ On July 29,
2019, in accordance with section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i), Commerce initiated an
administrative review of the AD order on cold drawn mechanical tubing
from Italy with respect to seven companies.\2\ On October 8, 2019,
ArcelorMittal Tubular Products LLC, Michigan Seamless Tube, LLC, PTC
Alliance Corp., and Webco Industries, Inc.(collectively, the
petitioners), timely withdrew their requests for an administrative
review of all six companies for which they had requested a review.\3\

Partial Rescission
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the party that requested
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the publication date
of the notice of initiation of the requested review. The petitioners
timely withdrew their review requests for six companies. Because
Commerce received no other requests for review of these six
[[Page 59358]]
companies for which a review was initiated, we are rescinding the
review of cold drawn mechanical tubing from Italy for the period
November 22, 2017, through May 31, 2019, in part, with respect to these
six companies, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). These six
companies are: Alessio Tubi S.p.A, Arvedi Tubi Acciaio S.p.A,
Italsempione S.p.A, Marcegaglia Novero S.p.A, Metalfer, S.p.A, and
Pipex Italia S.p.A. The review will continue with respect to Dalmine
S.p.A.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to
assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For the companies
for which this review is rescinded, antidumping duties shall be
assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit rate 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 whose entries
will be liquidated as a result of this rescission notice, 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 the 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 disposition 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.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 751
and 777(i)(l) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: October 29, 2019.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Operations.
