THIS ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER/FINDING AND PUBLISHED THE
REVOCATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ON NOVEMBER 24, 1995.

2. EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 24, 1995, TERMINATE SUSPENSION OF
LIQUIDATION OF CLEAR SHEET GLASS FROM TAIWAN AND FOR ALL
ENTRIES ENTERED, OR WITHDRAWN FROM WAREHOUSE, ON OR AFTER

TO ANTIDUMPING DUTIES. LIQUIDATE ENTRIES MADE DURING THE
PERIOD AUGUST 1, 1994, THROUGH JULY 31, 1995, AT THEIR
ENTERED RATE.

3. THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BY THE CUSTOMS SERVICE
ON ENTRIES OF THIS MERCHANDISE IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS
OF SECTION 778 OF THE TARIFF ACT OF 1930. SECTION 778
REQUIRES THAT CUSTOMS PAY INTEREST ON OVERPAYMENTS, OR
ASSESS INTEREST ON UNDERPAYMENTS, OF THE REQUIRED AMOUNTS
DEPOSITED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES. THE INTEREST
PROVISIONS ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO CASH OR BONDS POSTED AS

INTEREST SHALL BE CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF PAYMENT OF
ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES THROUGH THE DATE OF LIQUIDATION.
THE RATE AT WHICH SUCH INTEREST IS PAYABLE IS THE RATE

1954 FOR SUCH PERIOD.

4. UPON ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES, CUSTOMS SHOULD
REQUIRE THAT THE IMPORTER PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT

STATEMENT PRIOR TO LIQUIDATION OF THE ENTRY. IF THE

ABOVE-REFERENCED REGULATION. ADDITIONALLY, IF THE IMPORTER
FAILS TO RESPOND TO YOUR FORMAL REQUEST (VIA CF 28 OR 29)
FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT STATEMENT PRIOR TO LIQUIDATION,
CUSTOMS SHOULD PRESUME REIMBURSEMENT AND DOUBLE THE
ANTIDUMPING DUTIES DUE.
