Notification of Interested Parties

This notice serves as a final reminder

to importers of their responsibility

under 19 CFR § 353.26 to file a

certificate regarding the reimbursement

of antidumping duties prior to

liquidation of the relevant entries

during this review period. Failure to

comply with this requirement could

result in the Secretary’s presumption

that reimbursement of antidumping

duties occurred and subsequent

assessment of double antidumping

duties.

This notice also serves as a reminder

to parties subject to administrative

protective order (APO) of their

responsibility concerning the

disposition of proprietary information

disclosed under APO in accordance

with 19 CFR § 353.34(d). Timely written

notification of return/destruction of

APO materials or conversion to judicial

protective order is hereby requested.

Failure to comply with the regulations

and the terms of an APO is sanctionable

violation. Timely written notification of

the return/destruction of APO materials

or conversion to judicial protective

order is hereby requested.

This administrative review and notice

are in accordance with Section 751(a)(1)

of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1))

and 19 CFR § 353.22.

Business Centers in Russia

AGENCY: International Trade

Administration, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The International Trade

Administration (ITA) is soliciting

competitive applications to establish

and operate American Business

Centers (ABCs) in Volgograd and

Chelyabinsk, Russia for a two (2) year

multi-year award period. ABCs will

encourage the export of U.S. goods and

services and stimulate trade and

investment in Russia’s regions. Funds to

support new ABC Awards are not

currently available. All awards resulting

from this announcement are contingent

upon the availability of appropriated

funds.

ABCs will provide, on a user fee

basis, a broad range of business

development and facilitation services to

United States companies in Russia’s

regions. Services provided by the

ABCs will be designed to encourage

more U.S. firms to explore opportunities

for trade and investment in Russia’s

regions and to help them conduct

business there more effectively. The

core services to be provided by the

ABCs include: international telephone,

fax, and data transmission; temporary

office space; space for meetings, small

seminars, and small product exhibitions

or demonstrations; secretarial support

(e.g. word processing, typing, message

taking); translator/interpreters;

photocopying; market research;

counseling on local business conditions;

and arranging appointments with

Russian business contacts. The Centers

also will work closely with Russian

businesses to help them become more

attractive trading partners; identify and

report obstacles to trade and investment;

and serve as a link between financial

institutions, U.S. companies, and

Russian enterprises.

In addition to these core services,

ABCs will support U.S. Government

activities under the Regional Investment

Initiative (RII). This will include

providing, at cost, support for the

activities of the RII coordinators. Such

support may include office space,

computers, telecommunications

equipment and secretarial and

translation services.
