SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On January 30, 1995, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
published an antidumping duty order on glycine from the People's
Republic of China (60 FR 5620). On March 11, 1998, the Department
published in the Federal Register a notice of ``Opportunity to Request
an Administrative Review'' of the antidumping duty order on glycine
from the People's Republic of China (63 FR 11868).
On March 18, 1998, an exporter, Sinochem Tianjin Chemicals Import
and Export Corporation, and a producer, Yotech Chemical Industrial Co.,
Ltd., requested an administrative review of the antidumping order on
glycine from the People's Republic of China. In accordance with 19 CFR
351.221(b), we initiated the review on April 24, 1998 (63 FR 20378)
covering the period of March 1, 1997, through February 28, 1998. On
September 17, 1998, the exporter withdrew its request for
administrative review.

Applicable Statute and Regulations

Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are
references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective
date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the
Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA). In addition, unless otherwise
indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations refer to 19
CFR part 351 (62 FR 27296 (May 19, 1997)).

Rescission of Review

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations,
the Department will allow a party that requests an administrative
review to withdraw such request within 90 days of the date of
publication of the notice of initiation of the administrative review.
Furthermore, the Department may extend this time limit if the Secretary
decides it is reasonable to do so, per 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).
This request for withdrawal was made early in the review process
and there were no requests for review from other interested parties.
Additionally, the Petitioners have submitted comments on the record
supporting rescission. Therefore, the Department is rescinding this
review. This rescission of administrative review and notice are in
accordance with section 751(a)(1) of the Act 19 CFR 351.213(d).
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 353.34(d). Timely written notification of
the return or destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
This determination is issued and published in accordance with
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

Dated: October 14, 1998.
