Certain Fresh Cut Flowers From Colombia: Extension of Time Limit 
of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce is extending the time limit for the 
final results in the 11th administrative review of the antidumping duty 
order on certain fresh cut flowers from Colombia. The period of review 
is March 1, 1997, through February 28, 1998. This extension is made 
pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 26, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rosa Jeong or Marian Wells, Import 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone (202) 482-
3853 or 482-6309, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Commerce (the Department) 
initiated the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
certain fresh cut flowers from Colombia on April 21, 1998 (63 FR 
19709). On December 7, 1998, we extended the deadline for these 
preliminary results until February 10, 1999 (63 FR 6754). On February 
18, 1999, we published in the Federal Register the preliminary results 
of this administrative review (64 FR 8059).
    Due to the complexity of the issues present in this case, the 
Department has determined that it is not practicable to complete this 
review within the original time limit set forth in section 751(a)(3)(A) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act), as amended by the Uruguay Round 
Agreements Act. Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit 
for completion of the final results until August 17, 1999.
    As a result of the extension of the final results, the Department 
is also postponing the briefing schedule. Case briefs will be due on 
June 3, 1999, rebuttal briefs will be due on June 10, 1999.
    This extension is in accordance with the section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act.

    Dated: March 19, 1999.
Robert S. LaRussa,
Assistant Secretary, Import Administration.
