(Vita). See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 71 FR 51573 (August 30, 2006).

The period of review for both companies is July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006. Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), and section 351.213(h)(1) of the Department’s regulations require the Department to issue the preliminary results of a review within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of the order or suspension agreement for which the administrative review was requested, and final results of the review within 120 days after the date on which the notice of the preliminary results is published in the Federal Register. However, if the Department determines that it is not practicable to complete the review within the aforementioned specified time limits, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and section 351.213(h)(2) of the Department’s regulations allow the Department to extend the 245–day period to 365 days and to extend the 120–day period to 180 days. Due to the initiation of a cost investigation for Trofco, together with the need for further analysis of Vita’s questionnaire response, the Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the preliminary results of this review within the original time limit. Therefore, the Department is extending the deadline for completion of the preliminary results of this administrative review of the antidumping duty order on canned pineapple fruit from Thailand by 120 days from April 2, 2007 until no later than July 31, 2007. This notice is issued and published pursuant to sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: March 26, 2007. Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 17, 2004, the Department 
published in the Federal Register its final determination in the above-
referenced investigation covering the period of April 1, 2003, through

Than Fair Value: Carbazole Violet Pigment 23 from the People's Republic 
of China, 69 FR 67304 (November 17, 2004) (``Final Determination''). In 
the Final Determination, the Department (1) Applied total adverse facts 
available (``AFA'') to Tianjin Hanchem International Trading Co., Ltd. 
(``Hanchem''); (2) determined that the subsidies received by Pidilite 
Industries, Ltd. (``Pidilite''), an Indian producer of CVP 23, did not 
distort Pidilite's financial ratios; (3) valued benzene sulfonyl 
chloride using HTS number 2904.10.10; (4) valued calcium chloride based

benzene sulfonyl chloride, calcium chloride and steam; (4) explained 
why it is not appropriate to include terminal charges and brokerage 
fees in movement costs; and (5) calculated a surrogate value for steam. 
Thus, the Department recalculated the antidumping duty rates applicable 
to Goldlink Industries Co., Ltd., Trust Chem Co., Ltd., Hanchem, 
Nantong Haidi Chemicals Co., Ltd., and the PRC-wide entity. On December 
8, 2006, the CIT sustained the Department's final redetermination. See

for the Federal Circuit in Timken Company v. United States and China 
National Machinery and Equipment Import and Export Corporation, 893 
F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990), on January 4, 2007, the Department published
