    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 and suspension agreements. Pursuant to 19 
CFR 355.22(a) of the regulations, an interested party must specify the 
individual producers or exporters covered by the order or suspension 
agreements for which they are requesting a review, (Interim 
Regulations, 60 FR 25130, 25137 (May 11, 1995)). Therefore, for 
antidumping and countervailing duty reviews, and suspension agreements, 
the interested party must specify for which individual producers or 
exporters covered by an antidumping finding, antidumping or 
countervailing duty order or suspension agreement 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

[[Page 56664]]

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, 14th Street & 
Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230. The Department also 
asks parties to serve a copy of their requests to the Office of 
Antidumping/Countervailing Enforcement, Attention: Sheila Forbes, 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 to every party on the Department's service list.
    The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of 
``Initiation of Administration Review of Antidumping or Countervailing 
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation,'' for requests 
received by November 30, 1996. If the Department does not receive, by 
November 30, 1996, a request for review of entries covered by an order, 
finding, or suspended investigation 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: October 28, 1996.
Jeffrey P. Bialos,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
