FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elfi Blum-Page, Mark Hoadley, or 
Maureen Flannery, AD/CVD Enforcement, Import Administration, 
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th

The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the statute are 
references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective 
date of the amendments made to the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Act) by the 
Uruguay Round Agreements Act. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, 
all citations to the Department's regulations are to the current

Background

    On August 19, 1993, the Department published in the Federal 
Register (58 FR 44162) the antidumping duty orders on certain 
corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products and certain cut-to-
length carbon steel plate from Canada. Based on timely requests by 
petitioners and respondents in both proceedings, the Department 
published its initiation of these antidumping duty administrative 
reviews covering the period of August 1, 1997 through July 31, 1998 (63 
FR 51893) on September 29, 1998.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    Because of the complexities enumerated in the Memorandum from 
Joseph A. Spetrini to Robert S. LaRussa, Extension of Time Limit for 
the Preliminary Results of Antidumping Administrative Reviews: Certain 
Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat Products and Certain Cut-to-
Length Carbon Steel Plate From Canada, dated August 6, 1999, it is not 
practicable to complete these reviews within the time limits mandated 
by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time limits for the preliminary results 10 
days to August 16, 1999. The final results continue to be due 120 days 
after the publication of the preliminary results.

    Dated: August 6, 1999.
Richard O. Weible,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for AD/CVD Enforcement, Group III.
