SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On July 5, 1994, the Department published in the Federal Register

(59 FR 34410) its intent to revoke the countervailing duty order on

sugar from the EC (43 FR 33237; July 31, 1978). Under 19 CFR

355.25(d)(4)(iii), the Secretary of Commerce will conclude that an

order is no longer of interest to interested parties and will revoke

the order if no domestic interested party objects to revocation and no

interested party requests an administrative review by the last day of

the fifth anniversary month.

Within the specified time frame, we received objections from

domestic interested parties to our intent to revoke this countervailing

duty order. Therefore, because the requirements of 19 CFR

355.25(d)(4)(iii) have not been met, we will not revoke the order.

This determination is in accordance with 19 CFR 355.25(d)(4).

Dated: October 4, 1994.

Joseph A. Spetrini,

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
