E8–180 Filed 1–8–08; 8:45 am] Billing Code: 3510–DS–S DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Background Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), requires the Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) to issue the preliminary results of an administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which a review is requested and the final results of review within 120 days after the date on which the preliminary results are published. If it is not practicable to complete the review within the time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the VerDate Aug<31>2005 Department to extend these deadlines to a maximum of 365 days and 180 days, respectively. Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results This administrative review is extraordinarily complicated due to the nature of the countervailable subsidy practices and the fact that we have not conducted an administrative review of the countervailing duty order on stainless steel plate in coils from Belgium since 2001. Because the Department requires additional time to review, analyze, and possibly verify the information, and to issue supplemental questionnaires, it is not practicable to complete this review within the originally anticipated time limit (i.e., by January 31, 2008). Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for completion of the preliminary results to not later than May 30, 2008, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. 17:53 Jan 08, 2008 Jkt 214001 Proposed Information Collection; Comment Request; High Seas Fishing Permit Application Information National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.
