POSTPONEMENT OF PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW: The 
Department initiated the administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings from Thailand on August 
27, 1998 (63 FR 45796). The current deadline for the preliminary 
results in this review is April 1, 1999. In accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the Act''), as amended, the 
Department finds that it is not practicable to complete this 
administrative review within the original time frame. (See memorandum 
from Holly Kuga to Robert LaRussa, dated March 3, 1999). Thus the 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the 
preliminary results until August 2, 1999, which is 365 days after the 
last day of the anniversary month of the order. The final determination 
will occur within 120 days of the publication of the preliminary 
results.

    Dated: March 4, 1999.
Holly A. Kuga,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
