Administrative Review.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (the Department) is extending the 
time limit for the final results of the first administrative review of 
the countervailing duty order on cut-to-length carbon steel plate from 
Belgium. The review covers one manufacturer/exporter and the period 
January 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996.

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 17, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher Cassel or Gayle Longest,

APPLICABLE STATUTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the 
Tariff Act of 1920, as amended (the Act) are to the provisions 
effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the amendments made to 
the Act by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA). In addition, unless 
otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department's regulations are 
to 19 CFR part 351 (1998).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Because it is not practicable to complete 
this review within the initial time limits established by section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the 
Department is extending the time limits for completion of the final 
results until no later than March 8, 1999. This extension is necessary 
due, in part, to the existence of complex, novel issues. (See
