Postponement of Final Results

On February 6, 1998, the Department of Commerce (the Department)

published the preliminary results in this review (63 FR 6155). Section

751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act) requires

the Department to complete an administrative review within 120 days

after publication of the preliminary results. However, if it is not

practicable to complete the review within the statutory time limit,

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend the

time limit for completion of an administrative review. Because we have

determined that it is not practicable to complete this review within

the statutory time limit, we are extending the deadline for completion

of the final results of this review to 180 days after the date on which

the notice of the preliminary results was published. The extended

deadline for completion of the final results is August 5, 1998.

Dated: June 5, 1998.
