    Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and 
    Antidumping Order: Gray Portland Cement and Clinker From Japan
    
    AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
    Department of Commerce.
    
    SUMMARY: The appeal period for the court decision in Nihon Cement Co., 
    Ltd. et al. v. United States, Slip Op. 95-53 has expired. Accordingly, 
    given that the decision was not appealed, the Department is amending 
    its final determination of sales at less than fair value and order in 
    the antidumping duty investigation of Gray Portland Cement and Clinker 
    from Japan (Cement from Japan) in accordance with that decision.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: August 1, 1995.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michelle Frederick or John Brinkmann, 
    Office of Antidumping Investigations, International Trade 
    Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C., 20230; 
    telephone (202) 482-0186 or 482-5288, respectively.
    
    BACKGROUND: On March 28, 1995, in the case of Nihon Cement Co., Ltd. et 
    al. v. United States, Slip Op. 95-53 (Nihon), the United States Court 
    of International Trade (CIT) affirmed the Department's redetermination 
    on remand of the investigation of sales at less than fair value of 
    Cement from Japan (56 FR 12156, March 22, 1991, as amended by 56 FR 
    21658, May 10, 1991). In that redetermination, the Department 
    recalculated the deposit rates of Onoda Cement Co. (Onoda), Nihon 
    Cement Co., Ltd.(Nihon), and the ``All Others'' rate. On May 10, 1995, 
    the Department published notice of the court decision and the new rates 
    (60 FR 24832, May 10, 1995). In that notice the Department stated that 
    it must continue to suspend liquidation until a ``conclusive'' decision 
    in this action is reached. Because none of the parties appealed the 
    CIT's decision and the opportunity to appeal has expired, the 
    Department is amending the rates calculated in the final determination 
    and order. The new rates are: 70.52 for Onoda; 69.89 for Nihon; and 
    70.23 for ``All Others''. We will instruct Customs to continue to 
    suspend liquidation, and collect cash deposits, at the new rates for 
    Nihon and ``All Others''. The effective cash deposit rate for Onoda has 
    been determined by a subsequent administrative review, and is therefore 
    not affected by the recalculation of these rates.
    
        Dated: July 25, 1995.
    Paul L. Joffe,
    Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
