The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are 
references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective 
date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the 
Uruguay Round Agreements Act.

Background

    The Department of Commerce (the Department) received a request from 
petitioners and respondents to conduct an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat 
products and cut-to-length carbon steel plate from Canada. On September 
25, 1997 (62 FR 50292), the Department published its initiation of this 
administrative review covering the period August 1, 1996 through July 
31, 1997.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    Because of the complexity of certain issues of 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 Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat Products and Cut-to-
Length Carbon Steel Plate from Canada, dated February 12, 1998.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time limits for the preliminary results 
sixty days to July 3, 1998. The final determination continues to be due 
120 days after the publication of the preliminary results.

    Dated: February 12, 1998.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement III.
