In accordance with section 351.213 of the regulations, an
interested party as defined by section 771(9) of the Act may request in
writing that the Secretary conduct an administrative review. The
Department has changed its requirements for requesting reviews for
countervailing duty orders. Pursuant to 771(9) of the Act, an
interested party must specify the individual producers or exporters
covered by the order or suspension agreement for which they are
requesting a view (Interim Regulations, 60 FR 25130, 25137 (May 11,
1995)). Therefore, for both antidumping and countervailing duty
reviews, the interested party must specify for which individual
producers or exporters covered by an antidumping finding or an
antidumping or countervailing duty order it is requesting a review, and
the requesting party must state why it desires the Secretary to review
those particular producers or exporters. If the interested party
intends for the Secretary to review sales of merchandise by an exporter
(or a producer if that producer also exports merchandise from other
suppliers) which were produced in more than one country of origin and
each country of origin is subject to a separate order, then the
interested party must state specifically, on an order-by-order basis,
which exporter(s) the request is intended to cover.
Seven copies of the request should be submitted to the Assistant
Secretary for Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, Room 1870, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street &
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230. The Department also
asks parties to serve a copy of their requests to the Office of
Antidumping/
[[Page 51629]]
Countervailing Enforcement, Attention: Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of
the main Commerce Building. Further, in accordance with section
351.303(f)(1)(i) of the regulations, a copy of each request must be
served on every party on the Department's service list.
The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of
``Initiation of Administrative Review of Antidumping or Countervailing
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation'' for requests received
by the last day of October 1997. If the Department does not receive, by
the last day of October 1997, a request for review of entries covered
by an order, finding, or suspended investigation listed in this notice
and for the period identified above, the Department will instruct the
Customs Service to assess antidumping or countervailing duties on those
entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit (or bond for) estimated
antidumping or countervailing duties required on those entries at the
time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption and to
continue to collect the cash deposit previously ordered.
This notice is not required by statute but is published as a
service to the international trading community.
Dated: September 26, 1997.
Jeffrey P. Bialos,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
