Brass Sheet and Strip From Canada, Brass Sheet and Strip From the 
Netherlands, Porcelain-on-Steel Cooking Ware From Mexico, Porcelain-on-
Steel Cooking Ware From Mexico: Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 
Results of Five-Year Reviews

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

ACTION: Notice of extension of time limit for preliminary results of 
five-year (``Sunset'') reviews.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending 
the time limit for the preliminary results of the sunset reviews on the 
antidumping duty orders on brass sheet & strip from Canada, brass sheet 
& strip from the Netherlands, and porcelain-on-steel cooking ware from 
Mexico, and on the countervailing duty order on porcelain-on-steel 
cooking ware from Mexico. Based on adequate responses from domestic and 
respondent interested parties, the Department is conducting full sunset 
reviews to determine whether revocation of the antidumping duty orders 
would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and 
whether revocation of the countervailing duty order would be likely to 
lead to continuation or recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. As a 
result of these extensions, the Department intends to issue its 
preliminary results not later than August 20, 1999.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 28, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Martha Douthit or Melissa G. Skinner,

Department of Commerce, Pennsylvania Avenue and 14th Street, N.W.,

respectively.

Extension of Preliminary Results

    The Department has determined that the sunset reviews of the 
antidumping duty orders on brass sheet & strip from Canada, brass sheet 
& strip from the Netherlands, and porcelain-on-steel cooking ware from 
Mexico, and on the countervailing duty order on porcelain-on-steel 
cooking ware from Mexico are extraordinarily complicated. In accordance 
with section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(``the Act''), the Department may treat a review as extraordinarily 
complicated if it is a review of a transition order (i.e., an order in 
effect on January 1, 1995). See section 751(c)(6)(C) of the Act. The 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the 
preliminary results of these reviews until not later than August 20, in 
accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act. The final results of 
these reviews will, therefore, be due not later than December 28, 1999.

    Dated: May 21, 1999.
Richard W. Moreland,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
