SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 29, 1997, the Department received a request from the 
respondent in this case, Mannesmannrohren-Werke AG (``MRW'') and 
Mannesmann Pipe & Steel Corporation (``MPS'') (collectively 
``Mannesmann''), to conduct an administrative review of Mannesmann, 
pursuant to section 19 CFR 351.213(b) of the Department's regulations. 
The period of review is August 1, 1996 through July 31, 1997. On 
September 25, 1997, the Department published in the Federal Register 
(62 FR 50292) a notice announcing the initiation of an administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on Small Diameter Circular 
Seamless Carbon and Alloy Steel Standard, Line and Pressure Pipe from 
Germany, covering the period August 1, 1996 through July 31, 1997.

Rescission of Review

    On October 7, 1997, we received a timely request for withdrawal of 
the request for administrative review from Mannesmann. Because there 
were no other requests for administrative review from any other 
interested party, in accordance with section 351.213 (d) (1) of the 
Department's regulations, we have rescinded this administrative review.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1675) and 19 CFR 351.213 (d) 
(4).

    Dated: October 29, 1997.

Deputy Assistant Secretary, Enforcement Group III.
