covered in this or any previous review

or the LTFV investigation conducted by

the Department, the cash deposit rate

will be 8.29 percent, the ‘‘All Others’’

rate established in the LTFV

investigation.

These cash deposit requirements,

when imposed, shall remain in effect

until publication of the final results of

the next administrative review.

This notice serves as a preliminary

reminder to importers of their

responsibility under 19 CFR

351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate

regarding the reimbursement of

antidumping duties prior to liquidation

of the relevant entries during this

review period. Failure to comply with

this requirement could result in the

Secretary’s presumption that

reimbursement of antidumping duties

occurred and the subsequent assessment

of double antidumping duties.

This determination is issued and

published in accordance with sections

751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Dated: June 4, 2001.

Assistant Secretary for Import

From Canada: Extension of Time Limit

for Preliminary Determination in

Countervailing Duty Investigation

AGENCY: Import Administration,

International Trade Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of extension of time limit

for preliminary determination in

countervailing duty investigation.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce

is extending the time limit of the

preliminary determination in the

countervailing duty (CVD) investigation

of certain softwood lumber products

from Canada from June 27, 2001 until

no later than July 27, 2001. This

extension is made pursuant to section

703(c)(1)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as

amended by the Uruguay Round

Agreements Act.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 11, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

B. Greynolds at 202–482–6071, Office of

AD/CVD Enforcement VI, Group II,

Trade Administration, U.S. Department

of Commerce, 14th Street and

Constitution Ave, NW., Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Applicable Statute and Regulations

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.

In addition, unless otherwise indicated,

all citations to the Department’s

regulations are to the regulations

codified at 19 CFR part 351 (2001).

Extension of Due Date for Preliminary

Determination

On April 23, 2001, the Department of

Commerce (the Department) initiated

the CVD investigation of certain

softwood lumber products from Canada.

See Notice of Initiation of

Countervailing Duty Investigation:

Certain Softwood Lumber Products from

Canada, 66 FR 21332 (April 30, 2001).

Currently, the preliminary

determination is due no later than June

27, 2001. However, pursuant to section

703(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we have

determined that this investigation is

‘‘extraordinarily complicated’’ and are

therefore extending the due date for the

preliminary determination by 30 days to

no later than July 27, 2001.

Under section 703(c)(1)(B), the

Department can extend the period for

reaching a preliminary determination

until not later than the 130th day after

the date on which the administering

authority initiates an investigation if:

(B) The administering authority

concludes that the parties concerned are

cooperating and determines that

(i) The case is extraordinarily

complicated by reason of

(I) The number and complexity of the

alleged countervailable subsidy

practices;

(II) The novelty of the issues

presented;

(III) The need to determine the extent

to which particular countervailable

subsidies are used by individual

manufacturers, producers, and

exporters; or

(IV) The number of firms whose

activities must be investigated; and

(ii) Additional time is necessary to

make the preliminary determination.

We find that all concerned parties are

cooperating. Moreover, we find that this

case is extraordinarily complicated

because of the number of alleged

programs, and the complexity of each

program. As a consequence, we

determine that additional time is

necessary to complete the preliminary

determination. Therefore, pursuant to

section 703(c)(1)(B) of the Act, we are

postponing the preliminary

determination in this investigation to no

later than July 27, 2001.

This notice is issued and published

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act.
