SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 30, 2025, Commerce published in the Federal Register a
notice of opportunity to request an administrative review of the CVD
order on rebar from T[uuml]rkiye.\1\ On July 30, 2025, the Rebar Trade
Action Coalition (the petitioner) timely requested that Commerce
conduct an administrative review of Habas Sinai ve Tibbi Gazlar
Istihsal Endustrisi A.S (Habas).\2\ We received no other requests for
review. On August 1, 2025, we received a no shipment certification from
Habas.\3\

\1\ See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative
Review and Join Annual Inquiry Service List, 90 FR 27841 (June 30,
2025).
\2\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Request for Administrative
Review,'' dated July 30, 2025.
\3\ See Habas' Letter, ``Haba[scedil] No Shipment Letter,''
dated August 1, 2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On August 22, 2025, Commerce published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of an administrative review with respect to
Habas.\4\ On September 3, 2025, Commerce issued an intent to rescind
memorandum notifying interested parties that import data issued by the
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) indicated that Habas did not
have reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the POR for which
liquidation is suspended.\5\ Accordingly, in the absence of reviewable,
suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR, Commerce is
rescinding this administrative review with respect to Habas. Commerce
provided all parties with an opportunity to comment. No parties
submitted comments.

Administrative Reviews, 90 FR 41043 (August 22, 2025).
\5\ See Memorandum, ``Intent to Rescind Review,'' dated
September 3, 2025.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rescission of Review
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to
rescind an administrative review of a CVD order where it concludes that
there were no reviewable entries of subject merchandise during the
POR.\6\ Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, the
suspended entries are liquidated at the CVD assessment rate for the
review period.\7\ Therefore, for an administrative review to be
conducted, there must be a reviewable, suspended entry that Commerce
can instruct CBP to liquidate at the calculated CVD assessment rate for
the review period.\8\ As noted above, CBP confirmed that there were no
entries of subject merchandise during the POR with respect to Habas,
the only company subject to this review. Accordingly, in the absence of
reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise during the POR, we
are rescinding this administrative review, in its entirety, in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).

\8\ See 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Deposit Requirements
As Commerce has proceeded to a final rescission of this
administrative review, no cash deposit rates will change. Accordingly,
the current cash deposit requirements shall remain in effect until
further notice.
Assessment
Commerce will instruct CBP to assess countervailing duties on all
appropriate entries. Because Commerce is rescinding this review in its
entirety, the entries to which this administrative review pertained
shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated
countervailing 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.
Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order
This notice serves as a final 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, which continues
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return or destruction of
the APO materials, or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby
requested. Failure to comply with regulations and terms of an APO is a
violation, which is subject to sanction.
