SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 5, 1994, the Department of Commerce published in the 
Federal Register (59 FR 34410) its intent to revoke the countervailing 
duty order on leather wearing apparel from Uruguay (47 FR 31032; July 
17, 1982). Additionally, as required by 19 CFR 355.25(d)(4)(ii), the 
Department served certified written notice of its intent to revoke this 
countervailing duty order on each party listed on its most current 
service list. Domestic interested parties who might object to the 
revocation were provided 30 days to submit their comments.

Scope of the Order

    Imports covered by this order are shipments of Uruguayan leather 
wearing apparel and parts and pieces thereof. This product is currently 
classified under item numbers 4203.10.4030, 4203.10.4060, 4203.10.4085, 
and 4203.10.4095 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United 
States.

Determination To Revoke

    The Department may revoke a countervailing duty order if the 
Secretary of Commerce concludes that the order is no longer of interest 
to interested parties. We conclude that there is no interest in a 
countervailing duty order when no interested party has requested an 
administrative review for at least five consecutive review periods and 
when no domestic interested party objects to the revocation (19 CFR 
355.25(d)(4)(iii)).
    In this case, we received no request for review for five 
consecutive review periods. Furthermore, no domestic interested party 
as defined under Sec. 355.2 (i)(3), (i)(4), (i)(5), or (i)(6) of the 
Department's regulations, has expressed opposition to revocation. 
Therefore, we have concluded that the countervailing duty order 
covering leather wearing apparel from Uruguay is no longer of interest 
to interested parties, and we are revoking this countervailing duty 
order in accordance with 19 CFR 355.25(d)(4)(iii).
    This revocation applies to all shipments of leather wearing apparel 
from Uruguay exported on or after January 1, 1993. Shipments of this 
merchandise exported during the period January 1, 1993 through December 
31, 1993, will be subject to automatic assessment in accordance with 19 
CFR 355.22(g)(1). Further, as required by 19 CFR 355.25(d)(5), the 
Department is terminating the suspension of liquidation on the subject 
merchandise as of the effective date of this notice and will instruct 
the Customs Service to liquidate, without regard to countervailing 
duties, all unliquidated entries of this merchandise exported on or 
after January 1, 1994.
    This notice is published in accordance with 19 CFR 
355.25(d)(4)(iii).

    Dated: October 26, 1994.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
