Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), are references to the provisions effective in 1992. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations are to the regulations at 19 CFR Part 353 (1992).
Postponement of Final Determination
On January 28, 1999, the Republic of Kazakhstan (ROK) requested a 60-day postponement of the date for the Department to make its final determination in this investigation pursuant to section 735(a)(2) of the Act. Because our preliminary determination was affirmative, because the Republic of Kazakhstan represents the totality of the respondents, and because no compelling reasons for denial exist, we are granting the respondent's request to postpone the final determination. As the Notice of Resumption of Antidumping Investigation was published on January 19, 1999, the new deadline for the final determination will be June 3, 1999. Suspension of liquidation will be extended accordingly. On January 22, 1999, USEC, Inc., and its subsidiary, the United States Enrichment Corporation, an interested party in the proceeding, requested a hearing. On January 29, 1999, the Ad Hoc Committee of Domestic Uranium Producers, a Petitioner in the proceeding, requested a hearing. Finally, on February 1, 1999, the Paper, Allied-Industrial- Chemical and Energy Workers International Union (PACE), formerly the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers Union, a Petitioner in the proceeding, also requested a hearing. As a result of the postponement of the final determination, the Department is also postponing the date of the hearing to May 12, 1999. Case briefs will be due on May 3, 1999, with rebuttal briefs being due on May 10, 1999. This notice of postponement is published pursuant to 19 CFR 353.20(b)(2)(1992).
