\1\ The companies listed were inadvertently omitted from the initiation
  notices that published on 06/30/04 (69 FR 39409) and 07/28/04 (69 FR
  45010).
\2\ On June 30, 2004 (69 FR 38409), we initiated a review on Specialties
  G.D.S. Inc. We inadvertently misspelled the company name in that
  notice. The correct spelling of the company name is listed above.
\3\ On July 28, 2004 (69 FR 45010), we initiated an administrative
  review on Folding Metal Tables and Chairs from the PRC. In that notice
  the period of review listed was incorrect. The correct POR is listed
  above.
\4\ If one of the above named companies does not qualify for a separate
  rate, all other exporters of saccharin from the People's Republic of
  China who have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed to be
  covered by this review as part of the single PRC entity of which the
  named exporters are a part.
\5\ If one of the above named companies does not qualify for a separate
  rate, all other exporters of sebacic acid from the People's Republic
  of China who have not qualified for a separate rate are deemed to be
  covered by this review as part of the single PRC entity of which the
  named exporters are a part.

    During any administrative review covering all or part of a period 
falling between the first and second or third and fourth anniversary of 
the publication of an antidumping order under section 351.211 or a 
determination under section 351.218(f)(4) to continue an order or 
suspended investigation (after sunset review), the Secretary, if 
requested by a domestic interested party within 30 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation of the review, will determine, 
consistant with FAG Italia v. United States, 291 F.3d 806 (Fed. Cir. 
202), as appropriate,

whether antidumping duties have been absorbed by an exporter or 
producer subject to the review if the subject merchandise is sold in 
the United States through an importer that is affiliated with such 
exporter or producer. The request must include the name(s) of the 
exporter or producer for which the inquiry is requested.

    Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under 
administrative protective orders in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305.
    These initiations and this notice are in accordance with section 
751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)) and 19 
CFR 351.221(c)(1)(i).
