vinegar or acetic acid, but may contain

oil or other additives.

The merchandise subject to this

review is classifiable under subheadings

Preliminary Rescission of Review

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the

Department may rescind an

administrative review, in whole or only

with respect to a particular exporter or

producer, if the Secretary concludes

that, during the period covered by the

review, there were no entries, exports,

or sales of the subject merchandise.

Since the evidence shows that there

were no entries of certain preserved

mushrooms made by any exporter or

producer from Chile during the POR, we

are preliminarily rescinding this review

in accordance with 19 CFR

351.213(d)(3). The cash-deposit rate for

NFP and ‘‘All Other’’ producers/

exporters of the subject merchandise

will remain at 148.51 percent, the rate

established in the most recent segment

of this proceeding (63 FR 56613,

October 22, 1998).

This notice is published in

accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(4).
