*-1AOrder revoked effective 01/01/2000 as a result of sunset review.
**-1AThis order is currently undergoing a ``sunset'' review pursuant to
  section 751(c) of the Act. If, subsequent to publication of this
  opportunity notice the order should be revoked pursuant to ``sunset,''
  any review (if requested) or automatic liquidation instruction (if no
  review is requested) will only cover through the last day prior to the
  effective date of revocation.

    In accordance with Sec. 351.213(b) of the regulations, an 
interested party as defined by section 771(9) of the Act may request in 
writing that the Secretary conduct an administrative review. For both 
antidumping and countervailing duty reviews, the interested party must 
specify for which individual producers or exporters covered by an 
antidumping finding or an 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 
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 1870, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street & 
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 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 
Sec. 351.303(f)(l)(i) of the regulations, a copy of each request must 
be served on every party on the Department's service list.
    The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of 
``Initiation of Administrative Review of Antidumping or Countervailing 
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation'' for requests received 
by the last day of June 2000. If the Department does not receive, by 
the last day of June 2000, 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

[[Page 38244]]

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: June 14, 2000.
Holly A. Kuga,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, Group II, for Import Administration.
