FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Juanita Chen or Karla Whalen, AD/CVD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 25, 1999, the Department 
initiated this administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
welded ASTM A-312 Stainless Steel Pipe from Taiwan (64 FR 3682). Under 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 
the Department may extend the deadline for completion of the 
preliminary results of an administrative review if it determines that 
it is not practicable to complete the preliminary results within the 
statutory time limit of 245 days after the last day of the anniversary 
month for the relevant order. On July 21, 1999, the Department extended 
this case sixty days (64 FR 41382, July 30, 1999). However, the 
Department has determined that it is not practicable to complete the 
preliminary results of the administrative review within that statutory 
time limit. See Memorandum from Joseph A. Spetrini to Robert S. 
LaRussa, dated September 30, 1999.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time limit for the preliminary results 
until December 15, 1999.

    Dated: October 30, 1999.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, Enforcement Group III.
