Postponement of Preliminary Determination

    The Department of Commerce (the Department) is postponing the 
preliminary determination in the antidumping duty investigation of 
fresh Atlantic Salmon from Chile. The deadline for issuing the 
preliminary determination in this investigation is now no later than 
January 8, 1998.
    On July 2, 1997, the Department initiated an antidumping 
investigation of fresh Atlantic salmon from Chile. The notice stated we 
would issue our preliminary determination on November 19, 1997.
    On October 17, 1997, pursuant to section 733(c) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended, the Coalition for Fair Atlantic Salmon Trade and 
certain individual members thereof, the petitioners, requested that the 
Department postpone until January 8, 1998, the issuance of the 
preliminary determination in this investigation. The petitioners' 
request for postponement was timely, and the Department finds no 
compelling reason to deny the request. Therefore, we are postponing the 
deadline for issuing this determination until no later than January 8, 
1998.
    This extension is in accordance with section 733(c)(1)(A) of the 
Act and 19 CFR 353.15(d).

    Dated: October 23, 1997.
Richard W. Moreland,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
