SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 24, 2007, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published a notice of initiation of administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on purified carboxymethylcellulose from the 
Netherlands, covering the period July 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007. 
See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 72 FR 48613 (August 24, 
2007). The preliminary results for this review are currently due no 
later than April 1, 2008.

Statutory Time Limits

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department to issue 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 and the 
final results of review within 120 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results are published in the Federal Register. If the 
Department determines that it is not practicable to complete the review 
within the specified time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 
allows the Department to extend these deadlines to a maximum of 365 
days and 180 days, respectively.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    The deadline for the preliminary results of this administrative 
review is currently April 1, 2008. The Department has determined that 
completion of the preliminary results within the statutory time period 
is not practicable. On January 16, 2008, the Department issued a 
section A-C supplemental questionnaire to respondent CP Kelco B.V. On 
February 15, 2008, the Department issued CP Kelco B.V. a supplemental 
cost questionnaire requesting additional information. CP Kelco B.V. 
submitted its sections A-C supplemental sales questionnaire response 
and its section D supplemental cost questionnaire response on February 
14, 2008, and February 29, 2008, respectively. The Department requires 
additional time to review and analyze CP Kelco B.V.'s questionnaire 
responses, and to determine whether to issue additional supplemental 
sales and cost questionnaires to CP Kelco B.V.
    Therefore, given the additional time needed to conduct a complete 
analysis for this administrative review, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is extending the time period 
for completion of the preliminary results to 365 days. Therefore, the 
preliminary results are now due no later than July 30, 2008. The final 
results continue to be due no later than 120 days after publication of 
the notice of the preliminary results.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: March 11, 2008.
