(Sec. Sec.  325.14(b) of the Regulations, 15 CFR 325.14(b)). Failure to

325.10(a)(3) and 325.14(c)). On June 30, 2005, the Secretary of 
Commerce sent to Aires Group, Ltd., a letter containing Annual Report

file an annual report. The Secretary has sent a letter, dated April 28, 
2006 to notify the Aires Group, Ltd., of its final determination.
