Antidumping Duty Order

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

ACTION: Notice of Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order.

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

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is notifying the 
public of its revocation of the antidumping duty order on certain 
forged steel crankshafts from Germany because it is no longer of any 
interest to domestic interested parties.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 30, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy Wei or Michael Panfeld, Import 
Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 14th Street & Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 
20230, telephone (202) 482-4737.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department may revoke an antidumping duty order if the 
Secretary concludes that the duty order is no longer of any interest to 
domestic interested parties. We conclude that there is no interest in 
an antidumping duty order 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 
Sec. 353.25(d)(4)(iii)).
    On September 3, 1996, the Department published in the Federal 
Register (61 FR 46437) its notice of intent to revoke the antidumping 
duty order on certain forged steel crankshafts from Germany (September 
23, 1987). Additionally, as required by 19 CFR Sec. 353.25(d)(4)(ii), 
the Department served written notice of its intent to revoke this 
antidumping duty order 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 duty order on 
certain forged steel crankshafts from Germany is no longer of any 
interest to interested parties. Accordingly, we are revoking this 
antidumping duty order in accordance with 19 CFR 
Sec. 353.25(d)(4)(iii).

Scope of the Order

    Imports covered by the revocation are shipments of certain forged 
steel crankshafts from Germany. This merchandise is currently 
classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedules (HTS) item numbers 
8483.10.10, 8483.10.10.30, 8483.10.30.10, and 8483.10.30.50. The HTS 
numbers are provided for convenience and customs purposes. The written 
description remains dispositive.
    This revocation applies to all unliquidated entries of certain 
forged steel crankshafts from Germany entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after September 1, 1996. Entries made 
during the period September 1, 1995, through August 31, 1996, will be 
subject to automatic assessment in accordance with 19 CFR 
Sec. 353.22(e). The Department will instruct the Customs Service to 
proceed with liquidation of all unliquidated entries of this 
merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or 
after September 1, 1996, without regard to antidumping duties, and to 
refund any estimated antidumping duties collected with respect to those 
entries. This notice is in accordance with 19 CFR Sec. 353.25(d).

    Dated: October 15, 1996.
Barbara R. Stafford,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement.
