Stainless Steel Plate in Coils from
Belgium: Notice of Extension of Time
Limit for Preliminary Results of
Administrative Review
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during the review period. Pursuant to 19
CFR 351.402(f)(3), failure to comply
with this requirement could result in
the Department’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of doubled antidumping duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective order (‘‘APO’’) of their
responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO as explained in
the administrative protective order
itself. Timely written notification of the
return/destruction of APO materials or
conversion to judicial protective order is
hereby requested. Failure to comply
with the regulations and the terms of an
APO is a sanctionable violation.
This notice of the final results of this
administrative review is issued and
published in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act.

information pertaining to the company’s
sales practices, manufacturing costs and
corporate relationships, which is
complicated due to recent changes in its
corporate structure. Furthermore, the
company subject to this review recently

resulted in a request for additional time
to submit its questionnaire response to
the Department. Given the number and
complexity of issues in this case, and in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act, we are extending the time
period for issuing the preliminary
results of review by 120 days. Therefore,
the preliminary results are now due no

continue to be due 120 days after
publication of the preliminary results.
We are issuing and publishing this
