Rescission of Reviews

In accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d) the Department will rescind an
administrative review ``if a party that requested the review withdraws
the request within 90 days of the date of publication of notice of
initiation of the requested review.'' We received all of the above
withdrawal letters, except one, within the 90-day time limit. Although
Mori Seiki Co., Ltd., withdrew its request 91 days after initiation of
the review, we have honored this request because we have not expended
significant resources with regard to Mori Seiki Co., Ltd., and no party
has objected to Mori Seiki Co., Ltd.,'s late withdrawal of its request.
Because the Department received no other requests for review of these
firms, the Department is rescinding the reviews in part with respect to
ball bearings and parts thereof from France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and
the United Kingdom by these firms. The above rescissions are pursuant
to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1). The Department will issue appropriate
assessment instructions to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 15 days
after publication of this notice.

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 serves as a 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.
We are issuing and publishing these rescissions in accordance with
section 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR
351.213(d)(4).

Dated: November 7, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
