a review withdraws the request within 90 days of the publication date 
of the notice of initiation of the requested review. As noted above, 
Petitioner withdrew its request for review within 90 days of the 
publication date of the Initiation Notice. No other parties requested

antidumping duties.

administrative protective orders (``APO'') of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information
