The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') has received timely
requests, in accordance with section 353.22(a) (1), (2), and (3) of the
Department's regulations, for administrative reviews of antidumping
duty orders covering antifriction bearings (other than tapered roller
bearings) and parts thereof. The orders cover three classes or kinds of
merchandise: ball bearings (ball), cylindrical roller bearings
(cylindrical), and spherical plain bearings (spherical). Pursuant to

regulations, we are initiating administrative reviews of the following
antidumping duty orders. We intend to issue the final results of these
