SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On June 30, 1992, the Department published in the Federal Register
the antidumping duty order on high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from
Germany (57 FR 29062). On June 7, 1994, the Department published a
notice in the Federal Register notifying interested parties of the
opportunity to request an administrative review of high-tenacity rayon
filament yarn from Germany (59 FR 29441). On June 30, 1994, Akzo, a
producer/exporter, requested, in accordance with 19 CFR 353.22(a), that
we conduct an administrative review of exports to the United States by
Akzo Nobel Faser A.G. and Akzo Nobel Fibers, Inc., for the period June
1, 1993, through May 31, 1994. We published a notice of initiation of
the antidumping duty administrative review on July 15, 1994 (59 FR
36160). On July 12, 1995, the Department published in the Federal
Register the preliminary results of its administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from
Germany (60 FR 35896). The Department has now completed that review in
accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act).
Applicable Statutes and Regulations
Unless otherwise stated, all citations to the statutes and to the
Department's regulations are references to the provisions as they
existed on December 31, 1994.

Scope of the Review
The product covered by this administrative review is high-tenacity
rayon filament yarn from Germany. During the review period, such
merchandise was classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS)
item number 5403.10.30.40. High-tenacity rayon filament yarn is a
multifilament single yarn of viscose rayon with a twist of five turns
or more per meter, having a denier of 1100 or greater, and a tenacity
greater than 35 centinewtons per tax. The HTS item numbers are provided
for convenience and Customs purposes. The written description remains
dispositive as to the scope of this proceeding.
Final Results of the Review
We invited interested parties to comment on the preliminary
results. We received no comments. The final results are therefore
unchanged from those presented in the preliminary results, and we
determine that a margin of zero percent exists for Akzo for the period
June 1, 1993, through May 31, 1994.
Furthermore, the following deposit requirements will be effective
for all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of these
final results, as provided by section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) The
cash deposit rate for Akzo will be the rate established in the final
results of this review, which in this case, is a zero cash deposit
rate; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not listed
above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific
rate published for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a
firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original less than
fair value (LTFV) investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash
deposit rate will be the rate for the manufacturer of the merchandise;
and (4) if neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered
in this or any previous review by the Department, the cash deposit rate
will be 24.58 percent, the all other rate established in the LTFV
investigation.
These deposit requirements shall remain in effect until publication
of the final results of the next administrative review.
This notice serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 to file a certificate regarding the
reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the
relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this
requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility
concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under
APO in accordance with 19 CFR 353.34(d). Timely written notification of
return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation.
This administrative review and notice are in accordance with
section 751(a)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1)) and 19 CFR 353.22.
Dated: September 22, 1995.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
