SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 30, 2008, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published the initiation of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on folding metal tables and chairs from the 
People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, Request for Revocation in 
Part, and Deferral of Administrative Review, 73 FR 44220 (July 30, 
2008). On July 7, 2009, the Department published the preliminary 
results of review. See Folding Metal Tables and Chairs from the 
People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 74 FR 32118 (July 7, 2009). This review covers 
the period June 1, 2007, through May 31, 2008.

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Review

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (``Act''), the Department shall make a final determination in 
an administrative review of an antidumping duty order within 120 days 
after the date on which the preliminary results are published. The Act 
further provides, however, that the Department may extend that 120-day 
period to 180 days after the preliminary results if it determines it is 
not practicable to complete the review within the foregoing time 
period.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the 
final results of the administrative review of folding metal tables and 
chairs from the PRC within the 120-day time limit due to complex issues 
the parties have raised related to surrogate financial statements and 
market economy purchases. We find that additional time is needed to 
complete these final results. Therefore, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is extending the time period 
for completion of the final results of this review, which is currently 
due on November 4, 2009, by 30 days to 150 days after the date on which 
the preliminary results was published. Therefore, the final results are 
now due no later than December 4, 2009.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: October 29, 2009.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
