Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 84 / Tuesday, May 3, 2005 / Notices
The petitions were submitted
pursuant to section 251 of the Trade Act
of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341). Consequently,
the United States Department of
Commerce has initiated separate
investigations to determine whether
increased imports into the United States
of articles like or directly competitive
with those produced by each firm
contributed importantly to total or
partial separation of the firm’s workers,
or threat thereof, and to a decrease in
sales or production of each petitioning
firm. Any party having a substantial
interest in the proceedings may request
a public hearing on the matter. A
request for a hearing must be received
by Office of Strategic Initiatives, Room
7812, Economic Development
Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce, Washington, DC 20230, no
later than the close of business of the
tenth calendar day following the
publication of this notice. The Catalog
of Federal Domestic Assistance official
program number and title of the
program under which these petitions are
submitted is 11.313, Trade Adjustment
Assistance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Extension of Final Results:
On January 3, 2005, the Department
initiated sunset reviews of the
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders on CTL plate from France, India,
Indonesia, Italy, Japan and Korea. See
Initiation of Five-year (Sunset) Reviews,
70 FR 75 (January 3, 2005). Based on
adequate responses from the domestic
interested parties and inadequate
responses from respondent interested
parties, the Department is conducting
expedited sunset reviews to determine
whether revocation of the antidumping
and countervailing duty orders on CTL
plate would lead to the continuation or
recurrence of dumping or a
countervailable subsidy. The
Department’s final results of these
reviews were scheduled for May 3,
2005; however, the Department needs

Notice of Change in Practice
Regarding Upcoming Sunset Reviews
Import Administration,
International Trade Administration,
Department of Commerce.
AGENCY:
Notification of Upcoming
Sunset Reviews—Change in Practice.
ACTION:
Every five years, pursuant to section
751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), the Department of
Commerce (the Department)
automatically initiates and conducts
reviews to determine whether
revocation of a countervailing or
antidumping duty order or termination
of an investigation suspended under
section 704 or 734 of the Act would be
likely to lead to continuation or
recurrence of dumping or a
countervailable subsidy and of material
injury. In conjunction with this activity,
the Department’s practice has been to
notify, in advance, by certified or
registered mail, all persons on the
service list for each proceeding subject
to a sunset review of the approximate
date of publication in the Federal
Register of the automatic initiation of
the sunset review. This notification is
not required by statute but is done as a
service to the international trading
community.
The Department is announcing its
intention to discontinue this practice.
Instead, beginning with sunset reviews
initiated in June 2005, the Department
will provide this advance notification of
upcoming sunset reviews through a
monthly notice published in the Federal
Register. This notice of upcoming
sunset reviews will be published in the
month prior to the month of initiation.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending
the time limit for its final results in the expedited sunset reviews of
the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on certain cut-to-length
carbon-quality steel plate (``CTL plate'') from France, India,
Indonesia, Italy, Japan and Korea. As a result of this extension, the
Department intends to issue final results of this sunset review on or
about August 1, 2005.
EFFECTIVE DATE: May 3, 2005.

Street & Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Extension of Final Results:
On January 3, 2005, the Department initiated sunset reviews of the
antidumping and countervailing duty orders on CTL plate from France,
India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan and Korea. See Initiation of Five-year
(Sunset) Reviews, 70 FR 75 (January 3, 2005). Based on adequate
responses from the domestic interested parties and inadequate responses
from respondent interested parties, the Department is conducting
expedited sunset reviews to determine whether revocation of the
antidumping and countervailing duty orders on CTL plate would lead to
the continuation or recurrence of dumping or a countervailable subsidy.
The Department's final results of these reviews were scheduled for May
3, 2005; however, the Department needs additional time for its
analysis.
In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (``the Act''), the Department may extend the period of time
for making its final determination in a sunset review by not more than
90 days, if it determines that the review is extraordinarily
complicated. As set forth in 751(c)(5)(C), the Department may, among
other reasons, treat a sunset review as extraordinarily complicated if:
(i) There are a large number of issues, (ii) the issues to be
considered are complex or (iii) there are a large number of firms
involved. In these proceedings, one or more of these reasons apply.
Specifically, the sunset reviews of the four countervailing duty orders
on CTL plate contain a large number of complex issues, including
privatization, directed credit and section 129 implementation, while
the sunset reviews of the six antidumping duty orders include complex
issues related to the appropriate margins likely to prevail if the
orders were revoked and, in some instances, involve a large number of
companies. The Department has determined, pursuant to section
751(c)(5)(C) of the Act that the sunset reviews of the antidumping and
countervailing duty orders of CTL plate from France, India, Indonesia,
Italy, Japan and Korea are extraordinarily complicated and require
additional time for the Department to complete its analysis. Therefore,
the Department will extend the deadlines in these proceedings, and, as
a result, intends to issue the final results of the sunset reviews of
the antidumping and countervailing duty orders of CTL plate from
France, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan and Korea on or about August 1,
2005, 90 days from the original scheduled date of the final results of
these reviews. This notice is issued and published in accordance with
sections 751(c)(5)(B) and (C) of the Act.
Dated: April 25, 2005.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
