SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

The International Trade

Administration’s Business Information

Service for the Newly Independent

States offers business intelligence and

counseling to U.S. companies seeking to

export or invest in the countries of the

former Soviet Union. One of the

essential components of BISNIS’s

services is assisting companies in

locating suitable financing for exports.

Often, official sources, such as the

Export-Import Bank of the United

States, cannot handle all requests for a

variety of reasons. FinanceLink is an

internet-based service to facilitate

contact between exporters and financing

agencies. Exporters fill out a form giving

relevant details about the desired

transaction and submit it via Internet to

BISNIS; BISNIS will, in turn, distribute

the information collected to potential

financing agencies. The intention is to

provide a service that benefits both

exporters and financing agencies.

II. Method of Collection

The request is sent via Internet to

Department of Commerce, BISNIS

Information Service for the Newly

Independent States, Trade Finance

Specialist.

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.

In addition, unless otherwise indicated,

all citations to the Department’s

regulations are to the current

regulations, codified at 19 CFR part 351

Background

Based on timely requests by

petitioners and respondents in both

proceedings, the Department published

its initiation of this antidumping duty

administrative review covering the

period of August 1, 1999 through July

31, 2000 (65 FR 58733) on October 2,

2000.

Extension of Time Limits for

Preliminary Results

Due to the complex issues involved

with this case, we find that it is not

practicable to make a preliminary

determination by the current deadline of

May 3, 2001. Therefore, in accordance

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

section 351.213(h)(2) of the

Department’s regulations, the

Department is extending the time limits

for the preliminary results for 120 days,
