SUMMARY:
On June 29, 2000, the two respondents in this proceeding agreed to waive the time limits in order that the Department of Commerce may conduct the fourth new shipper review concurrent with the third annual administrative review of the antidumping duty order on brake rotors from the People's Republic of China.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On June 2, 2000, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(d) and 351.213(b), the Department initiated the fourth new shipper review and third administrative review of the antidumping duty order on brake rotors from the People's Republic of China (“PRC”), respectively. (See 65 FR 35322 and 65 FR 35320, respectively.) On June 29, 2000, Hongfa Machinery (Dalian) Co., Ltd. (“Hongfa”) and Luoyang Haoxiang Brake Disc Factory (“Luoyang”) agreed to waive the time limits in order that the Department, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(j)(3), may conduct the fourth new shipper review concurrent with the third annual administrative review of this order for the period April 1, 1999 through March 31, 2000. Because the date which is 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month falls on a weekend, we intend to issue the preliminary results, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(j)(3) and 351.213(h)(1), on the following business day, January 2, 2001. We also intend to publish the final results 120 days after the date on which notice of the preliminary results is published in the Federal Register.
This notice is in accordance with section 751(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)) and 19 CFR 351.214(d).
