DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

International Trade Administration


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 16 expedited sunset reviews 
initiated on June 1, 1999 (64 FR 29261) 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 December 28, 1999.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 12, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eun W. Cho, Kathryn B. McCormick or 
Melissa G. Skinner, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone: (202) 
482-1698, 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-428-802  Industrial Belts Except Synchronous & V Belts from Germany
A-475-802  Synchronous and V-Belts from Italy
A-588-807  Industrial Belts from Japan
A-559-802  V-Belts from Singapore
A-351-804  Industrial Nitrocellulose from Brazil
A-427-009  Industrial Nitrocellulose from France
A-428-803  Industrial Nitrocellulose from Germany
A-588-812  Industrial Nitrocellulose from Japan
A-580-805  Industrial Nitrocellulose from Korea
A-570-802  Industrial Nitrocellulose from the People's Republic of 
China
A-412-803  Industrial Nitrocellulose from the United Kingdom
A-479-801  Industrial Nitrocellulose from Yugoslavia
A-122-804  Steel Rail from Canada
C-122-805  Steel Rail from Canada
A-588-810  Mechanical Transfer Presses from Japan

    Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the final results of these reviews until not later than 
December 28, 1999, in accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act.

    Dated: September 29, 1999.
Robert S. LaRussa,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
