Determination Not to Revoke Antidumping Duty Orders and Findings

Nor to Terminate Suspended Investigations

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Determination not to revoke antidumping duty orders and

findings nor to terminate suspended investigations.

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

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: August 13, 1997.

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

Sec. 353.25(d)(4)(iii), if no interested party has requested an

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 April 7, 1997, May 9, 1997, and June 17, 1997, 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.
