Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    The Department of Commerce (the Department) has received a request 
to conduct an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
electrolytic manganese dioxide from Greece. On May 29, 1998, the 
Department initiated this administrative review covering the period

    Because it is not practicable to complete this review within the 
time limits mandated by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act (see Memorandum 
from Richard W. Moreland to Robert S. LaRussa, Extension of Time Limit 
for Administrative Review of Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide from 
Greece, December 30, 1998), the Department is extending the time limit 
for the preliminary results to April 29, 1999. The Department intends 
to issue the final results of review 120 days after the publication of 
the preliminary results. This extension of the time limit is in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213 
(h)(2).

    Dated: December 23, 1998.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, Import Administration.
