Postponement of Preliminary Results of Administrative Review

On October 2, 2000, the Department initiated a new shipper review (65 FR 58735) of the antidumping duty order on certain preserved mushrooms from the PRC. The current deadline for the preliminary results in this review is March 21, 2001.

In accordance with section 751 (a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (“the Act”), as amended, we determine that it is not practicable to complete this review of Green Fresh Foods (Zhangzhou) Co., Ltd. within the original time frame because of the additional time required to conduct verification. Thus, the Department is extending the time limit for completion of the preliminary results until May 31, 2001.

Dated: January 30, 2001.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
