Background

    On October 30, 2000, the Department published a notice of 
initiation of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order 
on Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils from Italy, covering the 
period January 4, 1999 through June 30, 2000 (65 FR 64662). The 
preliminary results are currently due no later than April 2, 2001.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results

    Because of the complex issues enumerated in the Memorandum from 
Edward C. Yang to Joseph A. Spetrini, Extension of Time Limit for the 
Preliminary Results of Administrative Review of Certain Stainless Steel 
Sheet and Strip in Coils from Italy, dated January 2, 2001, and on file 
in the Central Records Unit (CRU) of the Main Commerce Building, Room 
B-099, we find that it is not practicable to complete this review by 
the scheduled deadline. Therefore, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is extending the time period 
for issuing the preliminary results of review by 90 days (i.e., until 
July 2, 2001).

    Dated: January 2, 2001.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, AD/CVD Enforcement Group III.
