*Order revoked effective 01/01/2000, as a result of sunset review.
**This 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 section 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 for which 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.
    Six 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 section 
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 September 2000. If the Department does not receive, 
by the last day of September 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 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: September 14, 2000.
Thomas F. Futtner,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, Group II for Import Administration.
