Background
The Department published in the Federal Register on May 1, 2001 (66 FR 21740), a "Notice of Opportunity to Request Administrative Review" of the antidumping duty order on stainless steel plate in coils from the Republic of Korea. On May 31, 2001, POSCO requested that the Department conduct an administrative review of this order with respect to its sales of the subject merchandise. On June 19, 2001, the Department of Commerce initiated an administrative review for the period May 1, 2000 through April 30, 2001 (66 FR 32934). On July 5, 2001, POSCO, the only interested party to request a review in this case, withdrew its request for review. Since POSCO withdrew its request for review within 90 days of the date of publication of the notice of initiation, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Department is rescinding the review for the period May 1, 2000 through April 30, 2001.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with 19 C.F.R. 351.213(d)(4).
Dated: December 5, 2001.
