    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background
    
        The Department of Commerce has received requests to conduct a new 
    shippers review of the antidumping duty order on certain welded carbon 
    steel standard pipes and tubes from India. On June 27, 1996, the 
    Department initiated this new shippers review covering the period May 
    1, 1995, through April 31, 1996, in accordance with 751(a)(2)(B) of the 
    Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). The Department has initiated 
    a sales-below-cost investigation of the respondents in this review. We 
    would not be able to complete this sales-below-cost investigation and 
    incorporate that analysis in the margin calculations for our 
    preliminary results of review within the deadline contained in section 
    751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act. For this reason, we conclude that this new 
    shippers review is extraordinarily complicated (see Memorandum from 
    Laurie Parkhill to Barbara R. Stafford, Recommendation to Extend New 
    Shippers Review Schedule, December 19, 1996). Therefore, in accordance 
    with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act, the Department is extending 
    the time limit for completing the preliminary results of review until 
    April 23, 1997.
        This extension is in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of 
    the Act.
    
        Dated: December 19, 1996.
    Barbara R. Stafford,
    Deputy Assistant Secretary of AD/CVD Enforcement.
