    In accordance with sections 353.22(a) and 355.22(a) of the 
regulations, an interested party as defined by section 353.2(k) may 
request in writing that the Secretary conduct an administrative review. 
The Department has changed its requirements for requesting reviews for 
countervailing duty orders. Pursuant to 19 C.F.R. 355.22(a) of the 
Department's Interim Regulations (60 FR 25137 (May 11, 1995)), an 
interested party must specify the individual producers or exporters 
covered by the order for which they are requesting a review. Therefore, 
for both antidumping and countervailing duty reviews, the interested 
party must specify for which individual producers or exporters covered 
by an antidumping finding or an antidumping or countervailing duty 
order it is requesting a review, and the requesting party must state 
why it desires the Secretary to review those particular producers or 
exporters. If the interested party intends for the Secretary to review 
sales of merchandise by an exporter (or a producer if that producer 
also exports merchandise from other suppliers) which were produced in 
more than one country of origin, and each country of origin is subject 
to a separate order, then the interested party must state specifically, 
on an order-by-order basis, which exporter(s) the request is intended 
to cover.
    Seven copies of the request should be submitted to the Assistant 
Secretary for Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, Room B-099, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, 
D.C. 20230. The Department also asks parties to serve a copy of their 
requests to the Office of Antidumping Compliance, Attention: Pamela 
Woods, in room 3065 of the main Commerce Building. Further, in 
accordance with section 353.31(g) or 355.31(g) of the regulations, a 
copy of each request must be served on every party on the Department's 
service list.
    The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of 
``Initiation of Antidumping (Countervailing) Duty Administrative 
Review,'' for requests received by January 31, 1996. If the Department 
does not receive, by January 31, 1996, a request for review of entries 
covered by an order or finding listed in this notice and for the period 
identified above, the Department will instruct the Customs Service to 
assess antidumping or countervailing duties on those entries at a rate 
equal to the cash deposit of (or bond for) estimated antidumping or 
countervailing duties required on those entries at the time of entry, 
or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption and to continue to 
collect the cash deposit previously ordered.
    This notice is not required by statute, but is published as a 
service to the international trading community.

    Dated: January 22, 1996.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
