Parts Thereof From Italy; Amended Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Reviews

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

ACTION: Notice of Amended Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Reviews.

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

SUMMARY: On April 16, 1998, the Department of Commerce published in the 
Federal Register (63 FR 18877) a notice of final court decision and 
amended final results of administrative reviews of the antidumping duty 
orders on antifriction bearings (other than tapered roller bearings) 
and parts thereof from France, et al for the period May 1, 1991, 
through April 30, 1992. After publication of the amended final results, 
we discovered that due to a ministerial error the weighted-average 
margins published for FAG Italia S.p.A. in the Italian case are 
incorrect. We are amending those results to correct this error.

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 18, 1998.

Background

    On April 16, 1998, the Department published in the Federal Register 
(63 FR 18877) amended final results of administrative reviews of the 
antidumping duty orders on antifriction bearings (other than tapered 
roller bearings) and parts thereof from France, et al covering the 
period May 1, 1991, through April 30, 1992. Subsequent to

the publication of the amended final results, we discovered a 
ministerial error with regard to the weighted-average margins published 
for FAG Italia S.p.A. in the Italian case. Specifically, for this 
company we published the weighted-average margins from prior remand 
results. The final weighted-average margins for FAG Italia S.p.A. were 
established in FAG Kugelfischer Georg Schafer KgaA., FAG Italia S.p.A, 
FAG (U.K.) Limited, Barden Corporation Limited, FAG Bearings 
Corporation and The Barden Corporation v. United States, Slip Op. 96-
108 (July 10, 1996). The Court of International Trade affirmed those 
rates on December 12, 1996.

Amendment to Final Results

    In accordance with section 735(e) of the Act, we are now amending 
the final results of administrative reviews of the antidumping duty 
orders on antifriction bearings (other than tapered roller bearings) 
and parts thereof from Italy for the period May 1, 1991, through April 
30, 1992. The revised weighted-average margin is as follows:

                    Company                         BBs          CRBs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
FAG Italia S.p.A..............................         5.19        21.90
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, the Department will determine and the Customs Service 
will assess appropriate antidumping duties on entries of the subject 
merchandise made by FAG Italia S.p.A. Individual differences between 
United States price and foreign market value may vary from the 
percentages listed above. The Department will issue appraisement 
instructions to the Customs Service after publication of these amended 
final results of reviews.
    We are issuing and publishing this determination in accordance with 
sections 751(h) and 777(i) of the Act and 19 CFR 353.28(c).

    Dated: December 14, 1998.

Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
