SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending

cold-rolled and corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products from 
Korea. These reviews cover the period August 1, 1997 through July 31,

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

The Applicable Statute

    Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of 1930 
(``the Act'') are references to the provisions effective January 1, 
1995, the effective date of the amendments made to the Act by the 
Uruguay Rounds Agreements Act.

Postponement of Final Results

    On September 8, 1999, the Department published the preliminary 
results for this review. See 64 FR 48767. Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act requires the Department to complete an administrative review within 
120 days of publication of the preliminary results. However, if it is 
not practicable to complete the review within the 120-day time limit, 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend the 
time limit to180 days from the date of

publication of the preliminary results. The Department has determined 
that it is not practicable to issue its final results within the 
original 120-day time limit (See Decision Memorandum from Joseph A. 
Spetrini to Robert LaRussa dated October 21, 1999). We are therefore 
extending the deadline for the final results in this review to 180 days 
from the date on which the notice of preliminary results was published. 
The fully extended deadline for the final results is March 6, 2000.

    Dated: October 28, 1999.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary Enforcement Group III.
