Extension of Time Limit for Final Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires the Department to issue the final results of an administrative review within 120 days after the date on which the preliminary results were published. However, if it is not practicable to complete the review within this time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend the time limit for the final results up to 180 days from the date of publication of the preliminary results.
We determine that it is not practicable to complete the final results of this review within current statutory limits. The Department requires additional time to evaluate the extensive comments provided by parties on the level of trade issue. Therefore, we are extending the deadline for the final results of this review by 35 days, until not later than December 12, 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), 751(a)(3)(A), and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: October 17, 2008.
Gary Taverman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
