SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

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 Act by the Uruguay Rounds

Agreements Act.

Background

On May 13, 1997 (62 FR 27720, May

21, 1997) the Department initiated an

administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on roller chain,

other than bicycle, from Japan, covering

the period April 1, 1996, through March

31, 1997. In our notice of initiation, we

stated that we intended to issue the final

results of this review no later than April

30, 1998. On August 1, 1997, the

American Chain Association (ACA),

submitted a request for postponement of

the preliminary determination on roller

chain, other than bicycle from Japan,

due to the large number of respondents

and the complexity of issues presented

by the review.

Postponement of Preliminary and Final

Results of Review

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act

requires the Department to make a

preliminary determination within 245

days after the last day of the anniversary

month of an order for which a review

is requested and a final determination

within 120 days after the date on which

the preliminary determination is

published. However, if it is not

practicable to complete the review

within the time period, section

751(a)(3)(A) allows the Department to

extend this time period to 365 days and

180 days, respectively.

We determine that it is not practicable

to complete this review within the

original time frame because of the large

number of respondents and the

complexity of the legal and

methodological issues in this review.

Accordingly, the deadline for issuing

the preliminary results of this review is

now no later than April 30, 1998. The

deadline for issuing the final results of

this review will be no later than 180

days from the publication of the

preliminary results.

These extensions are in accordance

with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act (19

U.S.C. 1675(a)(3)(A)).

Dated: August 14, 1997.

Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for

Import Administration.
