Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Full Five-Year

Reviews

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of extension of time limit for preliminary results of

full five-year (``Sunset'') Reviews.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending

the time limit for the preliminary results of seven full sunset reviews

initiated on August 2, 1999 (64 FR 41915) covering various antidumping

and countervailing duty orders and suspended investigations. Based on

adequate responses from domestic and respondent interested parties, the

Department is conducting full sunset reviews to determine whether

revocation of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders or

termination of the suspended investigations would be likely to lead to

continuation or recurrence of dumping or a countervailable subsidy. As

a result

of these extensions, the Department intends to issue its preliminary

results not later than February 18, 2000.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 30, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mark D. Young or Melissa G. Skinner,

Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S.

Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW,

Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-3207, or (202) 482-1560

respectively.

Extension of Preliminary Results

In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Tariff Act of

1930, as amended (``the Act''), the Department may treat a sunset

review as extraordinarily complicated if it is a review of a transition

order (i.e., an order in effect on January 1, 1995). The Department has

determined that the sunset reviews of the following antidumping and

countervailing duty orders and suspended investigations are

extraordinarily complicated:

A-201-802 Grey Portland Cement and Cement Clinker from Mexico

A-307-803 Grey Portland Cement and Cement Clinker from Venezuela

C-122-815 Pure Magnesium from Canada

C-122-815 Alloy Magnesium from Canada

A-122-814 Pure Magnesium from Canada

A-821-802 Uranium from Russia

A-844-802 Uranium from Uzbekistan

Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for

completion of the preliminary results of these reviews until not later

than February 18, 2000, in accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the

Act.

Dated: November 22, 1999.

Joseph A. Spetrini,

Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
