Duty Order.

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

ACTION: Notice of final results and revocation of antidumping duty 
order on engineered process gas turbo-compressor systems from Japan.

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

SUMMARY: On May 1, 2002, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated a sunset review of the antidumping duty order 
on engineered process gas turbo-compressor systems from Japan (67 FR 
21632). Because no domestic interested party responded to the sunset 
review notice of initiation by the applicable deadline, the Department 
is revoking this antidumping duty order.

EFFECTIVE DATE:  June 16, 2002

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Applicable Statue

    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 amendments made to 
the Act by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (``URAA''). In addition, 
unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department of 
Commerce's (``Department'') regulations are to 19 CFR part 351 (2001).

Background

    On June 16, 1997, the Department issued an antidumping duty order 
on engineered process gas turbo-compressor systems from Japan. Pursuant 
to section 751(c) of the Act, the Department initiated a sunset review 
of this order by publishing a notice of the initiation in the Federal 
Register, 67 FR 21632 (May 1, 2002). In addition, as a courtesy to 
interested parties, the Department sent letters, via certified and 
registered mail, to each party listed on the Department's most current 
service list for this proceeding to inform them of the automatic 
initiation of the sunset review of this order.
    Because the Department did not receive a response from any domestic 
interested party to the sunset review notice of initiation by the 
applicable deadline, May 16, 2002, the Department notified the 
International Trade Commission on May 24, 2002, that it intended to 
issue a final determination revoking this antidumping duty order.

Determination to Revoke

    Pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.218(d)(1)(iii)(B)(3) of the Sunset Regulations, if no domestic 
interested party responds to the notice of initiation, the Department 
shall issue a final determination, within 90 days after the initiation 
of the sunset review, revoking the order or terminating the suspended 
investigation. Because no domestic interested party filed a response to 
the notice of initiation, the Department finds that no domestic 
interested party is participating in this review, and it is revoking 
this antidumping duty order.

Effective Date of Revocation

    Pursuant to sections 751(c)(3)(A) and 751(d)(2) of the Act and 19 
CFR 351.222(i)(2)(i), the Department will instruct the Customs Service 
to terminate the suspension of liquidation of the merchandise subject 
to this order entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, on or after June 
16, 2002. Entries of subject merchandise prior to the effective date of 
revocation will continue to be subject to suspension of liquidation. 
The Department will complete any pending administrative reviews of this 
order and will conduct administrative reviews of subject merchandise 
entered prior to the effective date of revocation in response to 
appropriately filed requests for review.

    Dated: June 6, 2002
Faryar Shirzad,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
