Postponement of Preliminary Results of Administrative Review

    The Department issued the initiation of the thirteenth 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on frozen 
concentrated orange juice from Brazil on June 30, 2000 (65 FR 41942 
(July 7, 2000)). The current deadline for the preliminary results in 
this review is January 30, 2001. In accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and 19 
CFR 351.213(h)(2), the Department finds that the preliminary results 
cannot be issued within the original time frame due to the 
extraordinarily complicated nature of certain cost issues in this 
review.
    Because it is not practicable to complete the administrative review 
within the time limits mandated by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act 
(245 days from the last day of the anniversary month for preliminary 
results), pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, and 19 CFR 
351.213(h)(2), the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the preliminary results of the administrative review 
until May 30, 2001.
    This extension is in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act.

    Dated: January 16, 2001.
Richard W. Moreland,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
