Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Five-Year Reviews

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of extension of time limit for final Results of Five-
Year (``Sunset'') Reviews.

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

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending 
the time limit for the final results of 18 expedited sunset reviews 
initiated on July 1, 1999 (64 FR 35588) covering various antidumping 
and countervailing duty orders. Based on adequate responses from 
domestic interested parties and inadequate responses from respondent 
interested parties, the Department is conducting expedited sunset 
reviews to determine whether revocation of the antidumping and 
countervailing duty orders 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 final results not 
later than January 27, 2000.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 16, 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, D.C. 20230; telephone: (202) 482-3207, or (202) 482-1560 
respectively.

Extension of Final 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 are extraordinarily complicated:

A-570-805  Sulfur Chemicals (Sodium Thiosulfate) from the People's 
Republic of China
A-428-807  Sulfur Chemicals (Sodium Thiosulfate) from Germany
A-412-805  Sulfur Chemicals (Sodium Thiosulfate) from the United 
Kingdom
A-533-808  Stainless Steel Wire Rods from India
A-351-819  Stainless Steel Wire Rods from Brazil
A-427-811  Stainless Steel Wire Rods from France
C-469-004  Stainless Steel Wire Rods from Spain
A-580-810  Welded Stainless Steel Pipes from Korea
A-583-815  Welded Stainless Steel Pipes from Taiwan
A-403-801  Fresh & Chilled Atlantic Salmon from Norway
C-403-802  Fresh & Chilled Atlantic Salmon from Norway
A-580-807  Polyethylene Terephthalate Film from Korea
A-570-804  Sparklers from the People's Republic of China
A-588-702  Stainless Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings from Japan
A-580-813  Stainless Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings from Korea

A-583-816  Stainless Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings from Taiwan
A-570-803  Heavy Forged Hand Tools (Axes and Adzes) from the 
People's Republic of China
A-570-803  Heavy Forged Hand Tools (Picks and Mattocks) from the 
People's Republic of China

    Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the final results of these reviews until not later than 
January 27, 2000, in accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act.

    Dated: October 18, 1999.
Richard W. Moreland,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
