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 review (Department of Commerce Regulations, 62 FR 27295,
27424 (May 19, 1997)). 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
[[Page 69694]]
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/Countervailing Enforcement, Attention: Sheila Forbes, in
room 3065 of the main Commerce Building. Further, in accordance with
section 351.303(f)(l)(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 December 1999. If the Department does not receive,
by the last day of December 1999, 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 of (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: December 6, 1999.
Holly A. Kuga,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Group II, AD/CVD Enforcement.
