period February 1, 1999, through

January 31, 2000:

Manufacturer/exporter Margin

(percent)

Panchmahal Steel Limited ........ 19.54

Assessment Rates

The Department will issue

appraisement instructions directly to

the Customs Service to assess

antidumping duties on appropriate

entries by applying the assessment rate

to the entered value of the merchandise.

Cash Deposit Rates

The following deposit requirements

will be required on all shipments of

stainless steel bar from India entered, or

withdrawn from warehouse, for

consumption, effective on or after the

publication date of the final results of

this administrative review, as provided

by section 751(a)(1) of the Act: (1) The

cash deposit rate for the reviewed

company will be the rate indicated

above; (2) for merchandise exported by

manufacturers or exporters not covered

in this review but covered in the

original less-than-fair-value

investigation or a previous review, the

cash deposit will continue to be the

most recent rate published in the final

determination or final results for which

the manufacturer or exporter received

an individual rate; (3) if the exporter is

not a firm covered in this review, the

previous review, or the original

investigation, but the manufacturer is,

the cash deposit rate will be the rate

established for the most recent period

for the manufacturer of the

merchandise; and (4) if neither the

exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm

covered in this or any previous reviews,

the cash deposit rate will be 12.45

percent, the ‘‘all others’’ rate established

in the less-than-fair-value investigation

(see Stainless Steel Bar from India; Final

Determination of Sales at Less Than

Fair Value, 59 FR 66915 (December 28,

1994)).

These cash deposit requirements,

when imposed, shall remain in effect

until publication of the final results of

the next administrative review.

Notification to Importers

This notice serves as a final 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 doubled antidumping

duties.

Notification Regarding APOs

This notice also serves as a reminder

to parties subject to administrative

protective orders (‘‘APOs’’) of their

responsibility concerning the return or

destruction of proprietary information

disclosed under APO in accordance

with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues

to govern business proprietary

information in this segment of the

proceeding. Timely written notification

of the return/destruction of APO

materials or conversion to judicial

protective order is hereby requested.

Failure to comply with the regulations

and terms of an APO is a violation

which is subject to sanction.

We are issuing and publishing this

determination and notice in accordance

with sections section 751(a)(1) and

777(i)(1) of the Act.

Dated: June 6, 2001.

Time Limits

Statutory Time Limits

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

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires

the Department to make a preliminary

determination within 245 days after the

last day of the anniversary month of an

order/finding 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 these time periods, section

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

Department to extend the time limit for

the preliminary determination to a

maximum of 365 days and for the final

determination to 180 days (or 300 days

if the Department does not extend the

time limit for the preliminary

determination) from the date of

publication of the preliminary

determination.

Background

On November 30, 2000, the

Department published a notice of

initiation of administrative review of the

antidumping duty order on stainless

steel wire rod from the Republic of

Korea, covering the period September 1,

1999, through August 31, 2000 ( 65 FR

71299). The preliminary results are

currently due no later than June 2, 2001.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary

Results of Review

We determine that it is not practicable

to complete the preliminary results of

this review within the original time

limit. Therefore the Department is

extending the time limit for completion

of the preliminary results until no later

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 112 / Monday, June 11, 2001 / Notices 31211

than September 30, 2001. See Decision

Memorandum from Holly A. Kuga to

Bernard T. Carreau dated concurrently

with this notice, which is on file in the

Central Records Unit, Room B–099 of

the main Commerce building. We

intend to issue the final results no later

than 120 days after the publication of

the preliminary results notice.

This extension is in accordance with

section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Dated: May 22, 2001.

Deputy Assistant Secretary, Import

Administration, Group II.

Welded Large Diameter Line Pipe From

Determination of Antidumping Duty

Investigation

AGENCY: Import Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of postponement of

preliminary determination of

antidumping duty investigation.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 25, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick

Statutory Time Limits

Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires

the Department of Commerce (the

Department) to issue the preliminary

determination of an antidumping duty

investigation within 140 days after the

date of initiation. However, if the case

is extraordinarily complicated and

additional time is necessary to make the

preliminary determination, and the

parties concerned are cooperating in the

investigation, section 733(c)(1)(B) of the

Act allows the Department to extend the

time limit for the preliminary

determination until not later than 190

days after the date of initiation.

Background

On January 30, 2001, the Department

initiated the above-referenced

investigation. See Notice of Initiation of

Antidumping Duty Investigations:

Welded Large Diameter Line Pipe from

Mexico and Japan, 66 FR 11266

(February 23, 2001). The preliminary

determinations are currently due no

later than June 19, 2001.

Extension of Preliminary Determination

The Department has now concluded,

consistent with section 733(c)(1)(B) of

the Act, that this investigation is

extraordinarily complicated, and that

additional time is necessary to issue the

preliminary determination due to the

complexity of certain issues raised in

these cases, including the complexity of

the transactions to be investigated and

adjustments to be considered and the

novelty of the issues presented.

Specifically, the Department must

investigate complicated matters of

affiliation between the respondent and

another producer. Simultaneously, it

must analyze and respond to

petitioners’ recent allegation of salesbelow-cost.

Therefore, in light of the fact that the

parties to this proceeding have been

cooperating, pursuant to section

733(c)(1) of the Act, and that additional

time is necessary to make this

preliminary determination in

accordance with section 733(c)(1)(B)(ii)

of the Act, the Department is postponing

the deadline for issuing this

determination until August 8, 2001.

Dated: June 4, 2001.

acquisition, processing and storage in

the mammalian brain under

physiological and pathological

conditions. A main focus will be on

brain structures involved in sensory
