Leather Wearing Apparel From Mexico; Partial Termination of 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Review and Termination of New 
Shipper Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of partial termination of countervailing duty 
administrative review and termination of new shipper countervailing 
duty administrative review.

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

SUMMARY: On May 15, 1995, in response to a request from the Government 
of 

[[Page 53586]]
Mexico (GOM), the Department of Commerce (the Department) initiated an 
administrative review of the countervailing duty order on leather 
wearing apparel from Mexico for 115 producers, covering the period 
January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1994 (60 FR 25885) (amended 
September 1, 1995; 60 FR 45697). We are now terminating that review for 
the 112 producers listed in the appendix hereto because the GOM is no 
longer interested in the review of these companies.
    On June 1, 1995 (60 FR 28576), also in response to a request from 
the GOM, the Department initiated a new shipper review, under the same 
order, for Comercial de Artesanias, S.A. de C.V. The review covered the 
period November 1, 1994 through April 30, 1995. Because the GOM 
withdrew its request for review, we are now terminating this review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 16, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 28, 1995, the Department received a request from the GOM 
for an administrative review of the countervailing duty order on 
leather wearing apparel from Mexico in accordance with Sec. 751(a)(1) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), covering the period 
January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1994. On June 19, 1995, in order 
to comply with the requirements of the Department's Interim Regulations 
(May 11, 1995; 60 FR 25130), the GOM submitted an amended request for 
review which listed 115 companies. No other party requested a review of 
these companies. On May 15, 1995, the Department published in the 
Federal Register (60 FR 25885) a notice of ``Initiation of 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Review,'' which was amended on 
September 1, 1995 (60 FR 45967) to list the names of the companies 
requested to be reviewed.
    On May 1, 1995, the Department received from the GOM a request for 
a new shipper review in accordance with Sec. 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act, 
under this countervailing duty order, to be conducted for Comercial de 
Artesanias, S.A. de C.V. On June 1, 1995, the Department published in 
the Federal Register (60 FR 28576) a notice of ``Initiation of New 
Shipper Countervailing Duty Administrative Review'' of Comercial de 
Artesanias, S.A., covering the period November 1, 1994 through April 
30, 1995.
    On September 6, 1995, the GOM attempted to withdraw its request for 
an administrative review of 111 companies listed in the appendix and 
its request for a new shipper review of Comercial de Artesanias, S.A. 
On September 21, 1995, the GOM attempted to withdraw its request for an 
administrative review of Exclusivos Baez, also listed in the appendix. 
The Department's regulations stipulate that the Secretary may permit a 
party that requests a review to withdraw the request not later than 90 
days after the date of publication of the notice of initiation of the 
requested review. 19 CFR 355.22(a)(3)(1995). While the withdrawal 
deadline for the GOM's request of administrative and new shipper 
reviews expired in August, the regulation also provides that the 
Secretary may extend the time limit for withdrawal of a request if it 
is reasonable to do so.
    Because no significant work has been completed on these reviews, 
extending the time limit for the GOM to withdraw its requests for 
reviews does not unduly burden the Department. Moreover, we have 
received no objections to terminating these reviews from other 
interested parties. Therefore, under the circumstances presented in 
these cases, we are waiving the 90-day requirement of section 
355.22(a)(5). Accordingly, based on the GOM's withdrawals, we are 
terminating the 1994 administrative review with respect to the 
companies listed in the appendix and the new shipper review of 
Comercial de Artesanias, S.A.
    This notice is published in accordance with 19 CFR 
Sec. 355.22(a)(5).

    Dated: October 6, 1995.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
