The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are

date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the 
Uruguay Round Agreements Act.

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    The Department of Commerce (the Department) received a request to 
conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
certain fresh cut flowers from Ecuador for the period March 1, 1997 
through February 28, 1998. On April 16, 1999, the Department published 
preliminary results of this administrative review (64 FR 18878).
    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. Therefore, in accordance with that 
section, the Department is extending the time limits for the final 
results to October 13, 1999 (see Memorandum from Richard W. Moreland to 
Robert S. LaRussa, Extension of Final Results), which is 180 days after 
the publication of the preliminary results.
    This extension of the time limit is in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

    Dated: July 15, 1999.
Richard W. Moreland,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
