AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Determination not to revoke antidumping duty orders and

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

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce is notifying the public of its

determination not to revoke the antidumping duty orders and findings

nor to terminate the suspended investigations listed below.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 27, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael Panfeld or the analyst listed under Antidumping Proceeding at:

Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S.

Department of Commerce, 14th Street & Constitution Avenue, N.W.,

Washington, D.C. 20230.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Commerce (the Department)

may revoke an antidumping duty order or finding or terminate a

suspended investigation, pursuant to 19 CFR 353.25(d)(4)(iii), if no

interested party has requested an

[[Page 60260]]

administrative review for four consecutive annual anniversary months

and no domestic interested party objects to the revocation or requests

an administrative review.

We had not received a request to conduct an administrative review

for the most recent four consecutive annual anniversary months.

Therefore, pursuant to Sec. 353.25(d)(4)(i) of the Department's

regulations, on July 1, 1996, and on October 1, 1996, we published in

the Federal Register a notice of intent to revoke these antidumping

duty orders and findings and to terminate the suspended investigations

and served written notice of the intent to each domestic interested

party on the Department's service list in each case. Within the

specified time frame, we received objections from domestic interested

parties to our intent to revoke these antidumping duty orders and

findings and to terminate the suspended investigations. Therefore,

because domestic interested parties objected to our intent to revoke or

terminate, we no longer intend to revoke these antidumping duty orders

and findings or to terminate the suspended investigations.
