SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On February 27, 1998, the Department received a request from the

American Melamine Institutional Tableware Association (AMITA), the

petitioner in the original investigation, and its member companies,

Carlisle Food Service Products and Prolon, Inc., to conduct an

administrative review of its entries, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(b) of

the Department's regulations. The period of review is August 22, 1996,

through January 31, 1998. On March 23, 1998, the Department published

in the Federal Register (63 FR 13837) a notice announcing the

initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on

melamine institutional dinnerware products from Indonesia, covering the

period August 22, 1996, through January 31, 1998.

Termination of Review

On June 16, 1998, we received a timely request for withdrawal of

the request for administrative review from AMITA and its member

companies.

[[Page 35911]]

Because there were no other requests for administrative review from any

other interested party, in accordance with section 351.213(d) of the

Department's regulations, we have rescinded this administrative review.

This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1675) and 19 CFR

351.213(d)(4).

Dated: June 25, 1998.

Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
