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.

Background
On June 30, 2000, the Department of Commerce (the Department) received a request from Kawasaki Steel Corporation ("Kawasaki") for an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on hot-rolled flat-rolled carbon-quality steel products from Japan. On July 31, 2000, the Department published a notice of initiation of this administrative review, covering the period of February 19, 1999 through May 31, 2000 (65 FR 46687).
Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results
Because of the complexities enumerated in the Memorandum from Barbara E. Tillman to Joseph A. Spetrini, Extension of Time Limit for the Administrative Review of Hot-Rolled Flat-Rolled Carbon-Quality Steel Products from Japan , dated January 3, 2001, it is not practical to complete this review 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 limit for the preliminary results of review until June 29, 2001. The final results continue to be due 120 days after the publication of the preliminary results.
Dated: January 3, 2001.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, AD/CVD Enforcement Group III
