date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the 
Uruguay Rounds Agreements Act (URAA).

Postponement of Preliminary Determination

    We have determined that this investigation is extraordinarily 
complicated within the meaning of section 733(c)(1)(B)(i) of the Act, 
due to the large number of potential respondents in this investigation, 
and a request that we consider the PRC crawfish tail meat industry to 
be a market-oriented industry.
    Furthermore, we have determined that the parties concerned are 
cooperating, as required by section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Act, and that 
additional time is necessary to make this preliminary determination in 
accordance with section 733(c)(1)(B) of the Act.
    For these reasons, the deadline for issuing the preliminary 
determination in this case is now no later than March 19, 1997.
    This notice is published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) of the Act.

    Dated: February 7, 1997.

Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement III.
