    Because of the complex issues enumerated in the Memorandum from 
Edward C. Yang to Joseph A. Spetrini, Request to Extend Preliminary 
Results in the Administrative Review of the Antidumping Order on

period for issuing the preliminary results of review by 90 days until 
July 2, 2001.

    Dated: January 25, 2001.
