SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Applicable Statute and Regulations

Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of

1930, as amended (``the Act'') are references to the provisions

effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the amendments made to

the Act by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act. In addition, unless

otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations are

references to the provisions codified at 19 CFR 351.101, et seq. (62 FR

Extension of Final Results

The Department initiated this administrative review on August 28,

1997 (62 FR 45621). Under section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the

Department may extend the deadline for completion of an administrative

review if it determines that it is not practicable to complete the

review within the statutory time limit of 365 days. Because of the

complexity of an issue in this case, it is not practicable to complete

this review within the statutory time limit of 365 days. The

Department, therefore, is extending the time limit for the final

results of the aforementioned review to February 3, 1999. See

memorandum from Holly A. Kuga to Robert S. LaRussa, which is on file in

Room B-099 at the Department's headquarters.

This extension of time limit is in accordance with section

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and Sec. 351.213(h)(2) of the Department's

regulations.

Dated: November 3, 1998.

Holly A. Kuga,

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, AD/CVD Enforcement Group II.
