Supplementary Information
Background
On August 31, 1995, Du Pont de Nemours & Company (Du Pont), a domestic producer of PTFE resin, requested that the Department conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on granular PTFE resin from Japan with respect to one manufacturer/exporter, Daikin Industries, Ltd. and Daikin America, Inc. (collectively Daikin). The review period is August 1, 1994, through July 31, 1995. On October 12, 1995, the Department published in the Federal Register (60 FR 53164) a notice of initiation of an administrative review of the order with respect to Daikin and the period August 1, 1994, through July 31, 1995. On October 18, 1995, Du Pont withdrew its request for a review and requested that the review be terminated. The Department's regulations at 19 CFR 353.22(a)(5) (1994) state that ``the Secretary may permit a party that requests a review under paragraph (a) of this section to withdraw the request no later than 90 days after the date of publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. The Secretary may extend this time limit if the Secretary decides that it is reasonable to do so.'' The withdrawal of the request for review was made within 90 days of the notice of initiation. Because there were no requests for review from other interested parties, we are terminating this review. This notice serves as a reminder to parties subject to administrative protective orders (APOs) of their responsibility concerning disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with section 353.34(d) of the Department's regulations. 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 the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. This notice is in accordance with section 353.22(a)(5) of the Department's regulations (19 CFR 353.22(a)(5)).
