    SUMMARY: On May 17, 1994, the Department of Commerce published the 
    preliminary results of its administrative review of the countervailing 
    duty order on leather wearing apparel from Mexico (59 FR 25612). We 
    have now completed the review and determine the net subsidy to be zero 
    for the 65 companies listed in the Appendix and 13.35 percent ad 
    valorem for all other companies for the period January 1, 1992 through 
    December 31, 1992.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: August 25, 1994.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background
    
        On May 17, 1994, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
    published in the Federal Register (59 FR 25612) the preliminary results 
    of its administrative review of the countervailing duty order on 
    leather wearing apparel from Mexico (46 FR 21357; April 10, 1981). The 
    Department has now completed this administrative review in accordance 
    with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The 
    review period is January 1, 1992 through December 31, 1992. The review 
    involves 65 companies and eight programs.
    
    Scope of Review
    
        Imports covered by this review are shipments of Mexican leather 
    wearing apparel. These products include leather coats and jackets for 
    men, boys, women, girls, and infants, and other leather apparel 
    products including leather vests, pants, and shorts. Also included are 
    outer leather shells and parts and pieces of leather wearing apparel. 
    This merchandise is currently classifiable under Harmonized Tariff 
    Schedule (HTS) item numbers 4203.10.4030, 4203.10.4060, 4203.10.4085 
    and 4203.10.4095. The HTS item numbers are provided for convenience and 
    Customs purposes. The written description remains dispositive.
    
    Analysis of Comment Received
    
        We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the 
    preliminary results. We received a written comment from the Amalgamated 
    Clothing and Textile Workers Union (ACTWU), whose members produce 
    leather wearing apparel. The ACTWU's comment supported the preliminary 
    results of this review.
    
    Final Results of Review
    
        Since the comment received did not oppose any aspect of the 
    preliminary results, we determine the net subsidy for these final 
    results to be the same as in the preliminary results: zero for the 65 
    companies listed in the Appendix and 13.35 percent ad valorem for all 
    other companies for the period January 1, 1992 through December 31, 
    1992.
        Therefore, the Department will instruct the Customs Service to 
    assess countervailing duties as follows for subject merchandise 
    exported on or after January 1, 1992, and on or before December 31, 
    1992: zero on shipments from any of the 65 companies listed in the 
    Appendix; and 13.35 percent of the f.o.b. invoice price on shipments 
    from all other companies.
        Further, the Department will instruct the Customs Service to 
    continue to suspend liquidation on all shipments of this merchandise 
    entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the 
    date of publication of this notice. As provided by section 751(a)(1) of 
    the Act, the Customs Service will collect cash deposits of estimated 
    countervailing duties on such shipments as follows: zero on shipments 
    of this merchandise from the companies listed in the Appendix, and 
    13.35 percent of the f.o.b. invoice price on shipments from all other 
    companies. These instructions shall remain in effect until publication 
    of the final results of the next administrative review.
        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 355.22.
    
        Dated: August 13, 1994.
    Susan G. Esserman,
    Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
