Republic of China (PRC) (60 FR 49572). The period of review (POR) is
June 1, 1993, through May 31, 1994. Based on three years of sales at
not less than foreign market value, we intend to revoke the order with
respect to one company if the preliminary results of this and the two

Applicable Statute and Regulations
The Department is conducting this administrative review in
accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act). Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute and to
the Department's regulations are references to the provisions as they
existed on December 31, 1994.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 26, 1995, the Department published the preliminary
results of its administrative review of the antidumping duty order on
tapered roller bearings and parts thereof, finished and unfinished
(TRBs), from the People's Republic of China (PRC) (60 FR 49572). The
POR is June 1, 1993 through May 31, 1994.
For a detailed description of the products covered by this review,
please see the notice of preliminary results referenced above.
Intent To Revoke
Shanghai General Bearing Company (Shanghai) requested, pursuant to
19 CFR 353.25(b), revocation of the order with respect to its sales of
the merchandise in question and submitted the certification required by
19 CFR 353.25(b)(1). In addition, in accordance with 19 CFR
353.25(a)(2)(iii), Shanghai has agreed in writing to its immediate
reinstatement in the order, as long as any producer or reseller is
subject to the order, if the Department concludes under 19 CFR
353.22(f) that Shanghai, subsequent to revocation, sold merchandise at
less than FMV. Based on the preliminary results in this review and the
two preceding reviews (see Tapered Roller Bearings and Parts Thereof,
Finished and Unfinished, From the People's Republic of China;
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Administrative Reviews, 60 FR 44302
(August 25, 1995)), Shanghai has demonstrated three consecutive years
of sales at not less than foreign market value (FMV).
If the final results of this and the two preceding reviews
demonstrate that Shanghai sold the merchandise at not less than FMV,
and if the Department determines that it is not likely that Shanghai
will sell the subject merchandise at less than FMV in the future, we
intend to revoke the order with respect to merchandise produced and
exported by Shanghai.
Interested parties may submit written comments (case briefs) within
15 days of the date of publication of this notice. Rebuttal comments
(rebuttal briefs), which must be limited to issues raised in the case
briefs, may be filed no later than 19 days after the date of
publication.
The Department will instruct the Customs Service to collect cash
deposits of estimated antidumping duties on all appropriate entries in
accordance with the procedures discussed in the notice of preliminary
results. Those deposit requirements will be effective upon publication
of the final results of this administrative review for all shipments of
the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for
consumption on or after the publication date, as provided for by
section 751(a)(1) of the Act, and will remain in effect until
publication of the final results of the next administrative review.
This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 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 presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This administrative review and notice are in accordance with
section 751(a)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1)) and 19 CFR 353.22.
Dated: March 4, 1996.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
