Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 28 / Friday, February 10, 2006 / Notices
of the publication of the initiation
notice. See section 751(c)(5)(A) of the
Act. The U.S. Department of Commerce,
(‘‘the Department’’) may extend the
period of time for issuing the final
results of an expedited sunset review if
it determines that the review is
extraordinarily complicated. This
deadline may be extended by 90 days
under section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act if
the Department determines that the
review is extraordinarily complicated.
We determine that these reviews are
extraordinarily complicated under
subsections 751(c)(5)(C) (i) (‘‘there are a
large number of issues’’), (ii) (‘‘the
issues to be considered are complex’’)
and (v) (‘‘it is a review of a transition
order’’) of the Act. Thus, it is
appropriate to extend the final results of
review by not more than 90 days. As
such, our final results are now due on
or before September 27, 2006.
With respect to the preliminary
results of these sunset reviews, the
Department’s regulations, at section
351.218(f)(3), provide that the
Department normally will issue its
preliminary results in a full sunset
review not later than 110 days after the
initiation, in these cases, by February
19, 2006. However, due to the reasons
cited above, we require additional time
to conduct the analysis required for the
preliminary results. Therefore, we are
extending the deadline for the
preliminary results of these full sunset
reviews of the countervailing duty
orders on cut–to-length carbon steel
plate from Belgium, Sweden, and the
United Kingdom to no later than July
14, 2006.
This notice is issued in accordance
with sections 751(c)(5)(B) and
751(c)(5)(C) of the Act.
Dated: February 6, 2006.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration.

Background
On November 1, 2005, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
published in the Federal Register the
notice of initiation of the sunset reviews
of the countervailing duty orders on
cut–to-length carbon steel plate (‘‘CTL
steel plate’’) from Brazil and Spain. See
Initiation of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Reviews, 70 FR 65884 (November 1,
2005). Based on adequate responses
from the domestic interested parties and
inadequate responses from respondent
interested parties, the Department is
conducting expedited sunset reviews of
these countervailing duty orders.
Extension of Time Limit for Final
Results of Reviews
In accordance with section
751(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘the Act’’), the U.S.
Department of Commerce, (‘‘the
Department’’) may extend the period of
time for issuing the final results of an
expedited sunset review if it determines
that the review is extraordinarily
complicated. As set forth in subsection
751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the
Department may treat a sunset review as
extraordinarily complicated if it is a
review of a transition order, as is the
case in these proceedings. A transition
order is defined as including
countervailing duty orders which were
in effect on January 1, 1995, the date on
which the WTO Agreement’s provisions
on sunset reviews went into effect.
Transition orders are treated as issued
on January 1, 1995. See section
751(c)(6)(D) of the Act. The
countervailing duty orders on CTL steel
plate from Brazil and Spain were issued
prior to January 1, 1995; as such they
are deemed transition orders for
purposes of the sunset proceeding.
In accordance with section
751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the
Department has determined that the
sunset reviews of the countervailing
duty orders on CTL steel plate from
Brazil and Spain require additional time
for the Department to complete its
analysis. The Department’s final results
of these sunset reviews were scheduled
for completion on March 1, 2006. The
Department will extend the deadlines in
these proceedings by 90 days and, as a
result, issue the final results of these

Background
On November 1, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``the
Department'') published in the Federal Register the notice of
initiation of the sunset reviews of the countervailing duty orders on
cut-to-length carbon steel plate (``CTL steel plate'') from Brazil and

(November 1, 2005). Based on adequate responses from the domestic
interested parties and inadequate responses from respondent interested
parties, the Department is conducting expedited sunset reviews of these
countervailing duty orders.
Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Reviews
In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended (``the Act''), the U.S. Department of Commerce, (``the
Department'') may extend the period of time for issuing the final
results of an expedited sunset review if it determines that the review
is extraordinarily complicated. As set forth in subsection
751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the Department may treat a sunset review as
extraordinarily complicated if it is a review of a transition order, as
is the case in these proceedings. A transition order is defined as
including countervailing duty orders which were in effect on January 1,
1995, the date on which the WTO Agreement's provisions on sunset
reviews went into effect. Transition orders are treated as issued on
January 1, 1995. See section 751(c)(6)(D) of the Act. The
countervailing duty orders on CTL steel plate from Brazil and Spain
were issued prior to January 1, 1995; as such they are deemed
transition orders for purposes of the sunset proceeding.
In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the
Department has determined that the sunset reviews of the countervailing
duty orders on CTL steel plate from Brazil and Spain require additional
time for the Department to complete its analysis. The Department's
final results of these sunset reviews were scheduled for completion on
March 1, 2006. The Department will extend the deadlines in these

these expedited sunset reviews no later than May 30, 2006.
This notice is issued in accordance with sections 751(c)(5)(B) and
751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act.
