SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 2, 2003, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published a notice of opportunity to request an administrative review 
of the antidumping duty order on top-of-the-stove stainless steel 
cooking ware (Cookware) from the Republic of Korea (Korea) (68 FR 
9048).
    On February 27, 2003, pursuant to a request made by Dong Won Metal 
Co., Ltd. (Dong Won), a producer and exporter of Cookware, the 
Department initiated an administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on Cookware from Korea. On March 23, 2003, Dong Won withdrew its 
request for an administrative review of Cookware from Korea.

Rescission of Review

    Section 351.213(d)(1) of the Department's regulations provides that 
a party that requests an administrative review may withdraw the request 
within 90 days after the date of publication of the notice of 
initiation of the requested administrative review. The Department is 
rescinding the administrative review of the order on Cookware from 
Korea for the period January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002, because 
the requesting party has withdrawn its request for this administrative 
review within the 90-day time limit, and no other interested parties 
have requested a review of Cookware from Korea for this time period.
    This notice is in accordance with section 777(i)(1) of the Act and 
19 CFR 251.213(d)(4).

    Dated: April 1, 2003.
Holly A. Kuga,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
