SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Extension of Time Limits

    On November 1, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated sunset reviews of the antidumping duty (``AD'') 
orders on certain corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products 
(``CORE'') from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and South 
Korea and the countervailing duty order (``CVD'') on CORE from South 
Korea, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(``the Act''). See Initiation of Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews, 70 FR 
65884 (November 1, 2005). Based on an adequate responses from the 
domestic interested parties and inadequate responses from respondent 
interested parties, the Department is conducting expedited sunset 
reviews to determine whether revocation of the AD orders on CORE from 
Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and South Korea would lead 
to the continuation or recurrence of dumping and whether revocation of 
the CVD order on CORE from South Korea would lead to continuation or 
recurrence of a countervailable subsidy. See section 19 CFR 
351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C) of the Act.
    In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act, the Department 
may extend the period of time for

making its determination in a sunset review by not more than 90 days, 
if it determines that the review is extraordinarily complicated. As set 
forth in section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the Department may treat a 
sunset review as extraordinarily complicated if it is a review of a 
transition order. The sunset reviews subject to this notice are reviews 
of transition orders. Therefore, the Department has determined, 
pursuant to section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, that the sunset reviews 
of the AD orders on CORE from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, 
Japan, and South Korea and the sunset review of the CVD order on CORE 
from South Korea are extraordinarily complicated and require additional 
time for the Department to complete its analysis. Accordingly, the 
Department will extend the deadlines in these proceedings, and, as a 
result, intends to issue the final results of the expedited sunset 
reviews on CORE from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and 
South Korea on or about May 30, 2006, 90 days from the original 
scheduled date of the expedited final sunset reviews.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(c)(5)(B) and (C) of the Act.

    Dated: February 21, 2006.

Deputy Assistant Secretaryfor Import Administration.
