Discontinuation of Suspension of

Liquidation

Although the aforementioned

ministerial error corrections affect the

rates for CATIC, Giant, Merida, CBC,

Chitech, and Overlord, in accordance

with section 735(c)(2) of the Act,

because of the negative determination

by the ITC, we have already directed the

Customs Service to discontinue

suspension of liquidation for entries of

bicycles imported from the PRC, entered

or withdrawn from warehouse, for

consumption between November 9,

1995 and May 7, 1996, and to release

any bond or other security, and refund

any cash deposit, posted to secure the

payment of estimated antidumping

duties with respect to these entries.

This determination is published

pursuant to section 735(d) of the Act (19

USC 1673(d)) and 19 CFR 353.20.

Dated: June 24, 1996.
