SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 1, 2002, the Department published in the Federal 
Register (67 FR 4945) a notice of ``Opportunity To Request 
Administrative Review'' of the antidumping duty order on certain 
preserved mushrooms from Indonesia for the period February 1, 2001, 
through January 31, 2002 (third review period). On February 28, 2002, 
the respondents, PT Dieng Djaya (``Dieng'') and PT Surya Jaya Abadi 
Perkasa (``Surya'')\1\, PT Indo Evergreen Agro Business Corporation 
(``Evergreen''), and PT Zeta Agro Corporation (``Zeta'') requested an 
administrative review of their sales for the above-mentioned period. 
The petitioner, the Coalition for Fair Preserved Mushroom Trade,\2\ did 
not comment. On March 27, 2002, the Department published a notice of 
initiation of an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
certain preserved mushrooms from Indonesia with respect to these 
companies. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocations in Part, 67 FR 
14696.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In accordance with 19 CFR 351.401(f), PT Dieng Djaya and PT 
Surya Jaya Abadi Perkasa were determined to be affiliated companies 
in the original less-than-fair-value investigation and are 
henceforth referred to as Dieng/Surya.

American Mushroom Institute; L.K. Bowman, Inc.; Modern Mushrooms 
Farms, Inc.; Monterey Mushrooms, Inc.; Mount Laurel Canning Corp.;

Partial Recission of Review

    On May 20, 2002, Dieng/Surya withdrew its request for an 
administrative review of its sales for the third review period. Section 
351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations stipulates that the 
Secretary may permit a party that requests a review to withdraw the 
request within 90 days of the date of publication of

notice of initiation of the requested review. In this case, Dieng/Surya 
has withdrawn its request for review within the 90-day period. We have 
received no other submissions regarding Dieng/Surya's withdrawal of its 
request for review. Therefore, we are rescinding, in part, this 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain 
preserved mushrooms from Indonesia as to Dieng/Surya. This review will 
continue with respect to Evergreen and Zeta.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751 of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
