    Applicable Statute and Regulations
    
        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

    Background
    
        The Department of Commerce (Department) has received a timely 
    request from Atlas Tube, Inc. (Atlas), to conduct a new shipper 
    administrative review of the antidumping duty order on oil country 
    tubular goods from Canada in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of 
    the Act, and 19 CFR 351.214(b) of the Department's regulations.
    
    Initiation of Review
    
        In its request of December 30, 1998, Atlas certified that it did 
    not export the subject merchandise to the United States during the 
    period of investigation (POI), and it has not been affiliated with any 
    exporter or producer who exported the subject merchandise to the United 
    States during the POI. Accompanying its request, Atlas provided 
    certifications which indicate the date the merchandise was first 
    entered for consumption in the United States, the volume of the first 
    and the subsequent shipments and the date of the first sale to an 
    unaffiliated customer in the United States.
        In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 
    351.214(d), we are initiating a new shipper review of the antidumping 
    duty order on oil country tubular goods from Canada. Since this new 
    shipper review was requested in the six-month period following the 
    anniversary month of the order and is being initiated in the month 
    immediately following the semiannual anniversary month, the period of 
    review will be June 1, 1998 to November 30, 1998. See 19 CFR 
    351.214(g)(1). We intend to issue the preliminary results of the review 
    not later than 180 days from the publication of this notice.
