THIS REVOCATION WAS PUBLISHED IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ON 12/29/2010 (75 FR 81966). THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE REVOCATION IS 11/22/2010.

CBP IS DIRECTED TO TERMINATE THE SUSPENSION OF LIQUIDATION FOR ALL SHIPMENTS OF TOP OF THE STOVE STAINLESS STEEL COOKING WARE ENTERED, OR WITHDRAWN FROM WAREHOUSE, FOR CONSUMPTION ON OR AFTER 11/22/2010. ALL ENTRIES OF SUBJECT MERCHANDISE THAT WERE SUSPENDED ON OR AFTER 11/22/2010 SHOULD BE LIQUIDATED WITHOUT REGARD TO COUNTERVAILING DUTIES (I.E., RELEASE ALL BONDS AND REFUND ALL CASH DEPOSITS, WITH INTEREST).

3. ENTRIES OF THE SUBJECT MERCHANDISE ENTERED, OR WITHDRAWN FROM WAREHOUSE, PRIOR TO 11/22/2010 SHOULD NOT BE LIQUIDATED UNTIL SEPARATE AND SPECIFIC LIQUIDATION INSTRUCTIONS ARE RECEIVED.

5. THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTIDUMPING DUTIES BY CBP ON SHIPMENTS OR ENTRIES OF THIS MERCHANDISE IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 778 OF THE TARIFF ACT OF 1930. SECTION 778 REQUIRES THAT CBP PAY INTEREST ON OVERPAYMENTS, OR ASSESS INTEREST ON UNDERPAYMENTS, OF THE REQUIRED AMOUNTS DEPOSITED AS ESTIMATED ANTIDUMPING DUTIES.
