Limit for Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

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

ACTION: Notice of extension of time limits for final results of 
antidumping administrative review.

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

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 27, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mike Strollo or Maureen Flannery, AD/
CVD Enforcement, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
5255 or (202) 482-3020, respectively.

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. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, 
all citations to the Department's regulations are to the current 
regulations, codified at 19 CFR Part 351 (1999).

Background

    On August 19, 1993, the Department published in the Federal 
Register (58 FR 44162) the antidumping duty orders on certain 
corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products and certain cut-to-
length carbon steel plate from Canada. Based on timely requests by 
petitioners and respondents in both proceedings, the Department 
published its initiation of these antidumping duty administrative 
reviews covering the period of August 1, 1997 through July 31, 1998 on 
September 29, 1998 (63 FR 51893). On August 19, 1999, the Department 
published the preliminary results of review (64 FR 45228).

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Because of the complexities enumerated in the Memorandum from 
Joseph A. Spetrini to Robert S. LaRussa, Extension of Time Limit for 
the Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Reviews of Certain 
Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat Products and Certain Cut-to-
Length Carbon Steel Plate From Canada, dated December 17, 1999, it is 
not practical to complete these reviews within the time limits mandated 
by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time period for issuing the final results 
of review until February 15, 2000.

    Dated: December 17, 1999.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, AD/CVD Enforcement Group III.
