In accordance with section 351.213(b)
of the regulations, an interested party as
defined by section 771(9) of the Act may
request in writing that the Secretary
conduct an administrative review. The
Department changed its requirements
for requesting reviews for countervailing
duty orders. For both antidumping and
countervailing duty reviews, the
interested party must specify the
individual producers or exporters
covered by an antidumping finding or
an antidumping or countervailing duty
order or suspension agreement for
which it is requesting a review, and the
requesting party must state why it
desires the Secretary to review those
particular producers or exporters.2 If the
interested party intends for the
Secretary to review sales of merchandise
by an exporter (or a producer if that
producer also exports merchandise from
other suppliers) which were produced
in more than one country of origin and
each country of origin is subject to a
separate order, then the interested party
must state specifically, on an order-byorder basis, which exporter(s) the
request is intended to cover.
Please note that, for any party the
Department was unable to locate in
prior segments, the Department will not
accept a request for an administrative
review of that party absent new
information as to the party’s location.
Moreover, if the interested party who
files a request for review is unable to
locate the producer or exporter for
which it requested the review, the
interested party must provide an
explanation of the attempts it made to
locate the producer or exporter at the
same time it files its request for review,
in order for the Secretary to determine
if the interested party’s attempts were
reasonable, pursuant to section
351.303(f)(3)(ii) of the regulations.
As explained in Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68
FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the Department
has clarified its practice with respect to
the collection of final antidumping
duties on imports of merchandise where
intermediate firms are involved. The
public should be aware of this
clarification in determining whether to
request an administrative review of
merchandise subject to antidumping
findings and orders. See also the Import
2 If
the review request involves a non-market
economy and the parties subject to the review
request do not qualify for separate rates, all other
exporters of subject merchandise from the nonmarket economy country who do not have a
separate rate will be covered by the review as part
of the single entity of which the named firms are
a part.

Six copies of the request should be
submitted to the Assistant Secretary for
Import Administration, International
Trade Administration, Room 1870, U.S.
Department of Commerce, 14th Street &
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington,
DC 20230. The Department also asks
parties to serve a copy of their requests
to the Office of Antidumping/
Countervailing Operations, Attention:
Sheila Forbes, in room 3065 of the main
Commerce Building. Further, in
accordance with section 351.303(f)(l)(i)
of the regulations, a copy of each
request must be served on every party
on the Department’s service list.
The Department will publish in the
Federal Register a notice of ‘‘Initiation
of Administrative Review of
Antidumping or Countervailing Duty
Order, Finding, or Suspended
Investigation’’ for requests received by
the last day of January 2009. If the
Department does not receive, by the last
day of January 2009, a request for
review of entries covered by an order,
finding, or suspended investigation
listed in this notice and for the period
identified above, the Department will
instruct the CBP to assess antidumping
or countervailing duties on those entries
at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or
bond for) estimated antidumping or
countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or
withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect
the cash deposit previously ordered.
This notice is not required by statute
but is published as a service to the
international trading community.

Revocation of Antidumping Duty
Order: Certain Steel Concrete
Reinforcing Bars from Turkey
AGENCY: Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
SUMMARY: On February 1, 2008, the
Department of Commerce (the
Department) initiated a sunset review of
the antidumping duty order on certain
steel concrete reinforcing bars (rebar)
PO 00000

from Turkey. See Initiation of Five-year
(‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 73 FR 6128 (Feb. 1,
2008). Pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
the International Trade Commission
(ITC) determined that revocation of this
order would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to an industry in the United
States within a reasonably foreseeable
time. See Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar
From Turkey; Determination, 73 FR
77841 (Dec. 19, 2008) (ITC Final).
Therefore, pursuant to section 751(d)(2)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.222(i)(1)(iii),
the Department is revoking the
antidumping duty order on rebar from
Turkey.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 26, 2008.

Administration, International Trade
Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution
Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230;
telephone: (202) 482–3874.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
all stock deformed steel concrete
reinforcing bars sold in straight lengths
and coils. This includes all hot–rolled
deformed rebar rolled from billet steel,
rail steel, axle steel, or low–alloy steel.
It excludes (i) plain round rebar, (ii)
rebar that a processor has further
worked or fabricated, and (iii) all coated
rebar. Deformed rebar is currently
classifiable under subheadings
7213.10.000 and 7214.20.000 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTSUS). The HTSUS
subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes. The
written description of the scope of this
order is dispositive.
Background
On April 17, 1997, the Department
issued the antidumping duty order on
rebar from Turkey. See Antidumping
Duty Order: Certain Steel Concrete
Reinforcing Bars From Turkey, 62 FR
18748 (Apr. 17, 1997).
On February 1, 2008, the Department
initiated, and the ITC instituted, a
sunset review of the antidumping duty
order on rebar from Turkey. See
Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Reviews, 73 FR 6128 (Feb. 1, 2008). As
a result of its sunset review of this
order, the Department found that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would be likely to lead to the
continuation or recurrence of dumping.
