Notice of Commission Decisions To Extend Deadlines for
Determining Whether To Review Two Initial Determinations and Notice
That Three Initial Determinations Have Become Final
AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade
Commission has decided to extend by 15 business days the administrative
deadlines for determining whether to review two initial determinations
(IDs) issued by the presiding administrative law judges in the above-
captioned Salinomycin and Magnets investigations and to declare the
Salinomycin investigation ``more complicated.'' These actions are
necessary because of the recent loss of 15 business days due to the
partial government-wide shutdown, snow emergency days, and an agency
furlough. The loss of these 15 business days is an ``other significant
factor'' within the meaning of Commission rule 210.22(a), 59 F.R. 39049
(Aug. 1, 1994), which governs the Salinomycin investigation. Notice is
also hereby given that three IDs issued in the above-captioned Fish
Cakes, Electrical Connectors, and Microprocessors investigations have
become final by operation of Commission rule 210.42(h)(3), 19 C.F.R.
210.42(h)(3).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lyle Vander Schaaf, Esq., Office of
the General Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, telephone
202-205-3107.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission was closed 11 business days
(December 18, 1995--January 7, 1996) due to the partial government-wide
shutdown. Following this shutdown, the agency was closed for three days
due to a snow emergency (January 8-10, 1996). The Commission opened for
one day, then closed again on January 12, 1996, for a Commission
furlough. As a result, the Commission was closed for a total of 15
business days during which time no work could be performed by
Commissioners and staff on the IDs in the Salinomycin and Magnets
investigations. In order to recoup this time, the Commission has
decided to extend by 15 business days the administrative deadlines for
deciding whether to review the IDs issued by the presiding ALJs in
those two investigations. The following are the IDs to which the
extensions apply and their new deadlines:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investigation ALJ order No. Old deadline New deadline
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inv. No. 337-TA-370.................. Final order............ Jan. 19, 1996.......... Feb. 9, 1996.
Inv. No. 337-TA-372.................. Final order............ Jan. 26, 1996.......... Feb. 16, 1996.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Commission decided not to exercise its authority to extend
retroactively the review deadlines for
[[Page 3463]]
three IDs issued in the Fish Cakes, Electrical Connectors, and
Microprocessors investigations because those IDs were not controversial
and were not the subject of any petitions for review. The following are
the IDs that became final and the dates on which they became final:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date ID became
Investigation ALJ order No. final
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inv. No. 337-TA-374............. Order No. 35...... Jan. 11, 1996.
Inv. No. 337-TA-377............. Order No. 5....... Jan. 16, 1996.
Inv. No. 337-TA-378............. Order No. 5....... Jan. 9, 1996.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S.C. Sec. 1337, and Commission rules
