RE: REVOCATION OF ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER ON AMORPHOUS
SILICA FILAMENT FARBIC FROM JAPAN (A-588-607)


1. AS A RESULT OF THE DOMESTIC INDUSTRY NO LONGER BEING
INTERESTED IN THE ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER ON AMORPHOUS SILICA
FILAMENT FABRIC FROM JAPAN, THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE HAS
REVOKED THIS ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER AND PUBLISHED THE
REVOCATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER OF NOVEMBER 14, 1995.

2. THEREFORE, CUSTOMS IS DIRECTED TO TERMINATE THE SUSPENSION
OF LIQUIDATION FOR ALL SHIPMENTS OF JAPANESE AMORPHOUS
SILICA FILAMENT FABRIC ENTERED, OR WITHDRAWN FROM WAREHOUSE,
FOR CONSUMPTION ON OR AFTER SEPTEMBER 1, 1995, TO LIQUIDATE
SUSPENDED ENTRY SUMMARIES WITHOUT REGARD TO ANTIDUMPING
DUTIES, AND TO REFUND ANY ANTIDUMPING DUTIES COLLECTED WITH
RESPECT TO THOSE ENTRIES. ENTRIES MADE DURING THE PERIOD
SEPTEMBER 1, 1994 THROUGH AUGUST 31, 1995 WILL BE SUBJECT TO
AUTOMATIC ASSESSMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH 19 CFR 353.22(e).

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
ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BEFORE THE DATE OF PUBLICATION
OF THE ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER (9/23/87). 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 IN EFFECT UNDER SECTION
6621 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1954 FOR SUCH PERIOD.

4. IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS MATTER BY CUSTOMS
OFFICERS, PLEASE CONTACT VIA E-MAIL, THROUGH THE APPROPRIATE
SUPERVISORY CHANNELS, IMPORT OPERATIONS,
