Certain Agricultural Tillage Tools From Brazil; Termination of

Countervailing Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Termination of Countervailing Duty Administrative

Review.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On November 27, 1992, the Department of Commerce (the

Department) initiated an administrative review of the countervailing

duty administrative review of certain agricultural tillage tools from

Brazil. The Department has now decided to terminate this review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 10, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dawn Carroll or Kelly Parkhill, Office

of Countervailing Compliance, Import Administration, International

Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and

Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C., 20230; telephone: (202)

482-2786.

Background

On October 9, 1992, the Department received a request for an

administrative review of this countervailing duty order from Marchesan

Implementos Agricolas, S.A., an importer of the subject merchandise,

for the period January 1, 1991, through December 31, 1991. No other

interested party requested a review. On November 27, 1992, the

Department published in the Federal Register (57 FR 56318) a notice of

``Initiation of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review'' initiating

the administrative review for that period. On August 19, 1994,

Marchesan Implementos Agricolas, S.A., submitted a withdrawal of its

request for review.

Section Sec. 355.22(a)(3) of the Department's regulations

stipulates that the Secretary may permit a party that requests a review

to withdraw the request not later than 90 days after the date of

publication of the notice of initiation of the requested review. This

regulation also provides that the Secretary may extend the time limit

for withdrawal of a request if it is reasonable to do so.

Because no significant work has been completed on this review, the

aforementioned importer's request does not unduly burden the

Department. Moreover, we have received no objections to terminating

this review from other interested parties. Therefore, under the

circumstances presented in this review, we are waiving the 90-day

requirement in 19 CFR 355.22(a)(3). Accordingly, we are terminating

this review. This notice is published in accordance with 19 CFR

355.22(a)(3).

Dated: November 1, 1994.

Joseph A. Spetrini,

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
