Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bars From Turkey; Notice of Extension 
of Time Limits for Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

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

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce is extending the time limits of the 
preliminary results of the antidumping duty administrative review on 
steel concrete reinforcing bars from Turkey. The review covers four 
producers/exporters of the subject merchandise to the United States. 
The period of review is April 1, 1999, through March 31, 2000.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 10, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Irina Itkin at (202) 482-0656, Office 
of AD/CVD Enforcement, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Because it is not practicable to complete 
this administrative review within the time limits mandated by section 
751(a)(3)(A) of Tariff Act of 1930, as amended by the Uruguay Round 
Agreements Act, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the preliminary results. This review involves a number of 
complicated issues including high inflation in Turkey during the period 
of review. Moreover, the petitioners requested that the Department 
conduct verification, pursuant to section 782(i)(3)(A) of the Act. 
Therefore, we intend to verify the sales and cost information submitted 
by the four respondents. Because the Department will not be able to 
conduct verification before the scheduled preliminary results, we have 
extended the deadline until April 30, 2001.
    This extension is in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act (19
