Foreign-Trade Zone 39—Dallas-Fort

Worth, Texas Application for Subzone

Fossil Partners L.P. (Watches, Sun

Glasses and Leather Goods); Dallas,

TX

An application has been submitted to

the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the

Board) by the Dallas/Fort Worth

International Airport Board, grantee of

FTZ 39, requesting subzone status for

the distribution facility of Fossil

Partners L.P. (Fossil), located in

Richardson, Texas, some 8 miles north

of Dallas. The application was

submitted pursuant to the provisions of

the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as

amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and the

regulations of the Board (15 CFR part

400). It was formally filed on March 12,

1997.

The Fossil facility (156,000 sq. ft. on

20.41 acres; 437 employees) is located at

2280 North Greenville Avenue in

Richardson. It is used to distribute a

wide range of consumer products,

including fashion watches and

accessories, sunglasses and leather

goods, some of which are sourced from

abroad (duty rate range—2.6%–14%).

The products are distributed throughout

the U.S. and abroad.

Zone procedures would exempt Fossil

from Customs duty payments on the

foreign products that are reexported. On

its domestic sales, it would be able to

defer Customs duty payments on

merchandise that is sourced from

abroad. The application indicates that

zone savings would help improve the

international competitiveness of the

facility.

In accordance with the Board’s

regulations, a member of the FTZ staff

has been appointed examiner to

investigate the application and report to

the Board.

Public comment is invited from

interested parties. Submissions (original

and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the

Board’s Executive Secretary at the

address below. The closing period for

their receipt is May 20, 1997. Rebuttal

comments in response to material

submitted during the foregoing period

may be submitted during the subsequent

15-day period June 4, 1997.

A copy of the application and

accompanying exhibits will be available

for public inspection at each of the

following locations:

Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel

Plate From Germany; Notice of

Rescission of Antidumping Duty

Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of Rescission of

Antidumping Duty Administrative

Review.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 21, 1997.

SUMMARY: On September 17, 1996, the

Department of Commerce (‘‘the

Department’’) published in the Federal

Register (61 FR 48882) a notice

announcing the initiation of an

administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on Certain Cutto-Length Carbon Steel Plate from

Germany. This review covered the

period August 1, 1995 through July 31,

1996. This review has now been

rescinded as a result of the absence of

entries into the U.S. of subject

merchandise during the period of

review.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Nancy Decker or Linda Ludwig, Group

III, Import Administration, International

Trade Administration, U.S. Department

of Commerce, 14th Street and

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington,

DC 20230; telephone (202) 482–1324 or

482–3833, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August

30, 1996, petitioners requested a review

of A.G. der Dillinger Huettenwerke

(Dillinger). The Department initiated

this review on September 17, 1996. On

that same date, Dillinger filed a letter

certifying to the Department that it did

not export any subject merchandise that

was entered for consumption into the

United States during the period of

review (POR). The Department sent a

no-shipment inquiry regarding Dillinger

to U.S. Customs on October 30, 1996.

Customs did not indicate that there

were any such entries.

Because the only firm for which a

review was requested made no entries

into the customs territory of the United

States during that POR, the Department

is rescinding this review. This

determination is consistent with the

Department’s practice. See Antidumping

Duties; Countervailing Duties; Notice of

Proposed Rulemaking, 61 FR 7308,

7317, 7365 (February 27, 1996) (section

351.213(d)(3)).

This notice is published in

accordance with section 751 of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 19 U.S.C.

§ 1675 (1995), and 19 CFR 353.22

(1996).

Dated: March 12, 1997.

Joseph A. Spetrini,

Deputy Assistant Secretary, Enforcement

Group III.
