We received no comments regarding the preliminary results. We are now revoking the order based on the fact that the order is no longer of interest to domestic interested parties.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Matthew Blaskovich or Jim Terpstra, AD/CVD Enforcement, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone (202) 482- 5831/3965. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On January 7, 1997, the North American Rayon Corporation (petitioner) requested that the Department conduct a changed circumstances administrative review to determine whether to revoke the order on high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from Germany (57 FR 29062, June 30, 1992). Petitioner states that it has no further interest in the order. Based on available information and petitioner's affirmative statement of no interest, we preliminarily determined, pursuant to 19 CFR 353.25(d)(2), to conduct a changed circumstances review. Consequently, on March 26, 1997, we published a notice of initiation and preliminary results of changed circumstances antidumping duty administrative review (62 FR 14398), in which we preliminarily determined to revoke this order. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the preliminary results of this changed circumstances review. We received no comments. 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 tex. The HTS item numbers are provided for convenience and Customs purposes. The written description remains dispositive as to the scope of the product coverage. This changed circumstances administrative review covers all manufacturers/exporters of high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from Germany. Final Results of Review: Revocation of Antidumping Duty Order The lack of further interest by domestic interested parties constitutes changed circumstances sufficient to warrant revocation of this order. See 19 CFR 353.25(d)(1)(i). Therefore, we are revoking the order on high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from Germany, in accordance with sections 751 (b) and (d) and 782(h) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) and 19 CFR 353.25(d)(1)(i). This revocation applies to all entries of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 1, 1995, consistent with petitioner's request. The Department will instruct the U.S. Customs Service (Customs) to proceed with liquidation, without regard to antidumping duties, of all unliquidated entries of high-tenacity rayon filament yarn from Germany entered, or withdrawn from ware-house, for consumption on or after June 1, 1995, in accordance with 19 CFR 353.25(d)(5). The Department will further instruct Customs to refund with interest any estimated duties collected with respect to unliquidated entries of high-tenacity rayon filament yarn entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after June 1, 1995, in accordance with section 778 of the Act. 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 the return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. This changed circumstances administrative review, revocation of the antidumping duty order, and notice are in accordance with sections 751 (b) and (d) and 782(h) of the Act and sections 353.22(f) and 353.25(d) of the Department's regulations.
