Background

    On August 31, 2005, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
received timely requests from respondents Dongkuk Steel Mill Co., Ltd. 
(DSM) and INI Steel Company (INI) along with petitioners, Nucor Corp., 
Nucor-Yamato Steel Co., Steel Dynamics, Inc., and Chaparral Steel Inc. 
(collectively, petitioners) to conduct an administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on structural steel beams from the Republic of 
Korea. On September 28, 2005, the Department published a notice of 
initiation of this administrative review, covering the period of August 
1, 2004 to July 31, 2005. See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation 
in Part, 70 FR 56631 (September 28, 2005). The preliminary results are 
currently due no later than May 3, 2006.

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Tariff Act), requires the Department to complete the preliminary 
results of an administrative review within 245 days after the last day 
of the anniversary month of an order for which a review is requested. 
However, if it is not practicable to complete the review within these 
time periods, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act allows the 
Department to extend the time limit for the preliminary results to a 
maximum of 365 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an 
order for which a review is requested.
    The Department has determined that it is not practicable to 
complete this administrative review within the time limit mandated by 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act. We require additional time to 
develop the record and examine DSM's cost of production data and issues 
of affiliation. Regarding INI, further analysis is necessary with 
respect to certain movement expenses. Accordingly, the Department is 
extending the time limit for completion of the preliminary results of 
this administrative review to August 31, 2006, which is 365 days from 
the last day of the anniversary month. We intend to issue the final 
results no later than 120 days after publication of the preliminary 
results notice.
