Industrial Nitrocellulose From the United Kingdom: Rescission of 
Antidumping Administrative Review

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

SUMMARY: On August 30, 1999, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on industrial nitrocellulose from the United Kingdom for 
Imperial Chemical Industries PLC (``ICI''), a manufacturer and exporter 
of industrial nitrocellulose. This administrative review was requested 
by ICI and is for the period July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999. The 
Department is rescinding this review after receiving a timely 
withdrawal from ICI of its request for review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 27, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas Futtner or Ron Trentham, Group 
II, Office 4, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, US Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution 
Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone (202) 482-3814 and (202) 
482-6320, respectively.

The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (``the Act''), are references to the provisions 
effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the Uruguay Round 
Agreements Act (``URAA''). In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all 
citations to the Department's regulations are to the regulations at 19 
CFR part 351 (1998).

Background

    On July 26, 1999, ICI requested that the Department conduct an 
administrative review of the subject merchandise it exported from the 
United Kingdom for the period July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999.
    On August 30, 1999, the Department published in the Federal 
Register (64 FR 47167) a notice of initiation of administrative review 
with respect to ICI for the period July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999. 
On September 29, 1999, ICI requested that it be allowed to withdraw its 
request for a review and that the review be terminated.

Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department will rescind an 
administrative review if a party that requested the review withdraws 
the request within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of 
initiation of the requested review. Because ICI's request for 
termination was submitted within the 90-day time limit, and there were 
no requests for review from other interested parties, we are rescinding 
this review. We will issue appropriate appraisement instructions 
directly to the US Customs Service.
    This notice is in accordance with section 771(i) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
