Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results The Department of Commerce (the Department) has received a request to conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on Steel Wire Rope from Mexico. On May 21, 1997, the Department initiated this administrative review covering the period March 1, 1996 through February 28, 1997. Because of the complexity of certain issues in this case, it is not practicable to complete this review within the time limits mandated by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. See Memorandum from Joseph A. Spetrini to Robert S. LaRussa, Extension of Time Limit for the Administrative Review of Steel Wire Rope from Mexico, dated December 24, 1997. Therefore, in accordance with that section, the Department is extending the time limits for the preliminary results to March 31, 1998, and for the final results to 120 days after the publication of the preliminary results. These extensions of time limits are in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. Dated: December 24, 1997. Joseph A. Spetrini, Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement III.
