The Applicable Statute

Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of

1930, as amended (the Act) are to the provisions effective January 1,

1995, the effective date of the amendments made to the Act by the

Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA). In addition, unless otherwise

indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations are to 19 CFR

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

The Department of Commerce has received a request to conduct an

administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain

corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products and certain cut-to-

length carbon steel plate from Canada. On September 25, 1997 (62 FR

50292), the Department initiated this antidumping administrative review

covering the period August 1, 1996 through July 31, 1997.

Because these cases involve a number of complex issues and the

Department must review data and comments recently placed on the record,

it is not practicable to complete this review within the time limits

mandated by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. Therefore, in accordance

with that section, the Department is extending the time limits for the

final results to January 2, 1999. See ``Extension of Time Limit for the

Review of Certain Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Plate Flat Products

and Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel Plate from Canada.'' This

extension of time limits is in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of

the Act.

Dated: December 17, 1998.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement III
