Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 142 / Tuesday, July 26, 2005 / Notices
Extension of Preliminary and Final
Results
On April 1, 2005, the Department
initiated a sunset review of the
suspended antidumping duty
investigation on ammonium nitrate from
Russia pursuant to section 751(c) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’). See Notice of Initiation of Fiveyear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews, 70 FR 16800,
(April 1, 2005). On the basis of notices
of intent to participate filed on behalf of
domestic interested parties and
adequate substantive comments filed on
behalf of domestic and respondent
interested parties, the Department is
conducting a full (240-day) review to
determine whether termination of the
suspension agreement on ammonium
nitrate would lead to the continuation
or recurrence of dumping. The
Department’s preliminary results of this
review were scheduled for July 20, 2005
and its final results of this review were
scheduled for November 29, 2005;
however, the Department needs
additional time for its analysis.
In accordance with section
751(c)(5)(B) of the Act, the Department
may extend the period of time for
making its preliminary determination in
a sunset review by not more than 90
days, if it determines that the review is
extraordinarily complicated. As set forth
in section 751(c)(5)(C), the Department
may, among other reasons, treat a sunset
review as extraordinarily complicated if:
(i) there are a large number of issues, (ii)
the issues to be considered are complex
or (iii) there are a large number of firms
involved. In this proceeding, the
Department has to consider complex
issues related to the likelihood of
continuation or recurrence of dumping,
the appropriate margins likely to prevail
if the suspension agreement is
terminated, and developments during
the administration of the suspension
agreement. Therefore, the Department
has determined, pursuant to section
751(c)(5)(C) of the Act, that the sunset
review of the suspension agreement on
ammonium nitrate from Russia is
extraordinarily complicated and
requires additional time for the
Department to complete its analysis.
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the deadline in this
proceeding, and, as a result, intends to
issue the preliminary results of the
sunset review of the suspension
agreement on ammonium nitrate from
Russia on or about October 18, 2005 and
the final results of the sunset review by
February 27, 2006.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(c)(5)(B)
and (C) of the Act.

Background
On December 10, 2001, the
Department published in the Federal
Register an antidumping duty order
covering honey from the PRC. See
Notice of Amended Final Determination
of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and
Antidumping Duty Order; Honey from
the People’s Republic of China, 66 FR
63670 (December 10, 2001). On
December 22, 2004, the Department
received a timely request from Kunshan
Xin’an Trade Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xinan’’) in
accordance with 19 CFR 351.214 (c), for
a new shipper review of the
antidumping duty order on honey from
the PRC, which has a December annual
anniversary month. On January 31,
2005, the Department initiated a review
for Xinan. See Honey from the People’s
Republic of China: Initiation of New
Shipper Antidumping Duty Review, 70
FR 6412 (February 7, 2005) (‘‘NSR
Xinan Initiation’’)
The Department has issued its
antidumping duty questionnaire, and
two supplementals to Xinan. The
deadline for completion of the
preliminary results is currently August
1, 2005.
results of a new shipper review within
180 days after the date on which the
new shipper review was initiated and
final results of a review within 90 days
after the date on which the preliminary
results were issued. The Department
may, however, extend the deadline for
completion of the preliminary results of
a new shipper review to 300 days if it
determines that the case is
extraordinarily complicated (19 CFR
351.214 (i)(2)).
Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214 (i)(2), we
determine that this review is
extraordinarily complicated and that it
is not practicable to complete this new
shipper review within the current time
limit. Specifically, the Department
requires additional time to analyze all
questionnaire responses and issues of
affiliation, and to conduct verification of
the responses submitted to date.
Accordingly, the Department is
extending the time limit for the
completion of the preliminary results by
45 days, to September 16, 2005, in
accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). The
final results will, in turn, be due 90 days
after the date of issuance of the
preliminary results, unless extended.
