The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (the Act), are references to the provisions in effect 
as of January 1, 1995, the effective date of the Uruguay Round 
Agreements Act. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all citations 
to the Department of Commerce's (the Department's) regulations are to 
the regulations at 19 CFR part 351 (2001).

Background

    On August 31, 2001, Bergerac, N.C. (Bergerac), SNPE North America, 
Inc. (SNPE), and Tevco, Inc. (Tevco), requested that the Department 
conduct an administrative review of Bergerac's shipments of industrial 
nitrocellulose from France for the period August 1, 2000, through July 
31, 2001. On October 1, 2001, the Department published in the Federal 
Register a notice of initiation of this administrative review. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part (66 FR 49924).
    On October 15, 2001, Bergerac, SNPE, and Tevco withdrew their 
request for a review and asked the Department to rescind the 
administrative review.

Rescission of Reviews

    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 Bergerac, SNPE, and Tevco 
submitted their request for rescission within the 90-day time limit and 
there were no requests for a review from other interested parties, we 
are rescinding this review. As such, we will issue appropriate 
appraisement instructions directly to the Customs Service.
    This notice is in accordance with section 777(i) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(4).

    Dated: November 28, 2001.
Richard W. Moreland,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, Import Administration.
