Pasta From Italy and Turkey
AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
EFFECTIVE DATE: February 1, 1996.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

POSTPONEMENT OF FINAL DETERMINATIONS AND TERMINATION OF SUSPENSION OF
LIQUIDATION: On October 17, 1995, we published the preliminary
affirmative countervailing duty determinations with respect to certain
pasta from Italy (60 FR 53739) and Turkey (60 FR 53747). On October 26,
1995, we published a notice of alignment of the final countervailing
duty determinations with the final antidumping duty determinations of
certain pasta from Italy and Turkey (60 FR 54847). The notice stated
that the final countervailing duty determinations would be made on
February 21, 1996.
On January 19, 1996, the notices of preliminary determination of
sales at less than fair value and postponement of final determination
for certain pasta from Italy and Turkey were published in the Federal
Register. These notices stated that the final determinations in the
antidumping duty investigations and the companion countervailing duty
investigations would be made 135 days after the date of publication of
the Department's preliminary determination in the antidumping cases,
i.e., June 3, 1996. Accordingly, the date for the final countervailing
duty determinations for certain pasta from Italy and Turkey will be
June 3, 1996.

In accordance with section 703(d) of the Act, the Department will
direct the U.S. Customs Service to terminate the suspension of
liquidation in the countervailing duty investigations on February 14,
1996, which is four months (120 days) from the date of publication of
the preliminary determinations in these countervailing duty
investigations. No cash deposits or bonds for potential countervailing
duties will be required for merchandise which enters on or after
February 14, 1996. The suspension of liquidation will not be resumed
unless and until the Department publishes countervailing duty orders.
We will also direct the U.S. Customs Service to continue to suspend
liquidation of entries made between October 17, 1995, through February
13, 1996 until the conclusion of these investigations.
The U.S. International Trade Commission is being advised of this
postponement of final determinations in accordance with section 705(d)
of the Act and the termination of suspension of liquidation in
accordance with section 703(f) of the Act. This notice is published
pursuant to section 705(d) of the Act and 19 C.F.R. 355.20(c)(3).
Dated: January 24, 1996.
Barbara R. Stafford,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
