SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The Department may revoke a countervailing duty order if the

Secretary of Commerce concludes that it is no longer of interest to

interested parties. Accordingly, as required by the Department's

regulations (at 19 C.F.R. 355.25(d)(4)), we are notifying the public of

our intent to revoke the countervailing duty orders listed below, for

which the Department has not received a request to conduct an

administrative review for the most recent four consecutive annual

anniversary months.

In accordance with Sec. 355.25(d)(4)(iii) of the Department's

regulations, if no domestic interested party (as defined in

Sec. 355.2(i)(3), (i)(4), (i)(5), and (i)(6) of the regulations)

objects to the Department's intent to revoke these orders pursuant to

this notice, and no interested party (as defined in Sec. 355.2(i) of

the regulations) requests an administrative review in accordance with

the Department's notice of opportunity to request administrative

review, we shall conclude that the countervailing duty orders are no

longer of interest to interested parties and proceed with the

revocations. However, if an interested party does request an

administrative review in accordance with the Department's notice of

opportunity to request administrative review, or a domestic interested

party does object to the Department's intent to revoke pursuant to this

notice, the Department will not revoke the order.
