SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department may revoke an antidumping finding if the Secretary 
concludes that the finding is no longer of any interest to domestic 
interested parties. We conclude that there is no interest in an 
antidumping finding when no interested party has requested an 
administrative review for five consecutive review periods and when no 
domestic interested party objects to revocation (19 CFR 
353.25(d)(4)(iii)).
    On August 1, 1994, the Department published in the Federal Register 
(59 FR 38956) its notice of intent to revoke the antidumping findings 
on titanium sponge from Estonia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, 
Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and 
Uzbekistan (August 28, 1968).
    Additionally, as required by 19 CFR 353.25(d)(4)(ii), the 
Department served written notice of its intent to revoke these 
antidumping findings on each domestic interested party on the service 
list. Domestic interested parties who might object to the revocation 
were provided the opportunity to submit their comments not later than 
the last day of the anniversary month.
    In this case, we received no requests for review for five 
consecutive review periods. Furthermore, no domestic interested party, 
as defined under Sec. 353.2 (k)(3), (k)(4), (k)(5), or (k)(6) of the 
Department's regulations, has expressed opposition to revocation. Based 
on these facts, we have concluded that the antidumping findings on 
titanium sponge from Estonia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, 
Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan 
are no longer of any interest to interested parties. Accordingly, we 
are revoking these antidumping findings in accordance with 19 CFR 
353.25(d)(4)(iii).
