SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 9, 1996, the Department published the preliminary results 
of this review (see Aramid Fiber Formed of Poly Para-Phenylene 
Terephthalamide from the Netherlands; Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Administrative Review, 61 FR 15766). The review covers the 
period December 16, 1993, through May 31, 1995.
    It is not practicable to complete this review within the time 
limits mandated by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act (see Memorandum for 
Paul Joffe from Joe Spetrini, Extension of Time Limits for 1993-95 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Aramid Fiber Formed of Poly 
Para-Phenylene Terephthalamide from the Netherlands, May 9, 1996). 
Therefore, in accordance with that section, the Department is extending 
the time limits for the final results to September 25, 1996. The 
Department adjusted the time limits by 28 days due to the government 
shutdowns, which lasted from November 14, 1995, to November 20, 1995, 
and from December 15, 1995, to January 6, 1996. See Memorandum to the 
file from Susan G. Esserman, Assistant Secretary for Import 
Administration, January 11, 1996. These extensions are in accordance 
with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

    Dated: May 16, 1996.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
