Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) is
extending the time limit for the final
results of the changed circumstances
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain hot–rolled carbon steel flat
products (‘‘hot–rolled steel’’) from
Thailand. The period of review is July
1, 2006, through June 30, 2007. This
extension is made pursuant to 19 CFR
351.216(e) and 19 CFR 351.302(b).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 29, 2001, the
Department published the antidumping
duty order on hot–rolled steel from
Thailand. See Antidumping Duty Order:
Certain Hot–Rolled Carbon Steel Flat
Products From Thailand, 66 FR 59562
(November 29, 2001) (‘‘Hot–Rolled Steel
Order’’). In November 2004, in the
course of the 2003 - 2004 administrative
review, Sahaviriya Steel Industries
Public Company Limited (‘‘SSI’’)

29APN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 81 / Wednesday, April 29, 2009 / Notices
pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
requested revocation of the Hot–Rolled
Steel Order with respect to its sales of
subject merchandise. See Certain Hot–
Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products From
Thailand; Preliminary Results of
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review and Intent to Revoke and
Rescind in Part, 70 FR 73197 (December
9, 2005).
In its revocation request, SSI agreed to
immediate reinstatement in the Hot–
Rolled Steel Order, so long as any
producer or reseller is subject to the
order, should the Department determine
that SSI ‘‘sold the subject merchandise
at less than normal value.’’ See SSI’s
November 30, 2004, letter to the
Department requesting revocation. On
May 17, 2006, the Department revoked
the antidumping duty order with
respect to SSI after having determined
that SSI sold the merchandise at not less
than normal value for a period of at least
three consecutive years.1 See
Revocation.
As the result of an adequate allegation
from a domestic interested party in this
proceeding (i.e., United States Steel
Corporation), the Department, pursuant
to section 751(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), is now
conducting a changed circumstances
review to determine whether SSI has
resumed dumping hot–rolled steel and
whether the antidumping order should
be reinstated for hot–rolled steel from
Thailand manufactured and exported by
SSI. See Initiation of Antidumping Duty
Changed Circumstances Review: Certain
Hot–Rolled Carbon Steel Flat Products
from Thailand, 73 FR 18766 (April 7,
2008).
‘‘On October 29, 2008, based upon the
complexity of the issues presented in
this review, we extended the time limit
for completion of this changed
circumstances review until April 22,
2009. See Certain Hot–Rolled Carbon
Steel Flat Products from Thailand:

was being manufactured in the United
States at the time the instruments were

instrument is an electron microscope
and is intended for research or scientific
educational uses requiring an electron
microscope. We know of no electron
microscope, or any other instrument
suited to these purposes, which was
being manufactured in the United States
at the time of order of each instrument.
As the Department stated in both the
Extension Notice and the Preliminary
Results, the Department intended to
issue the final results of this
antidumping duty changed
circumstances review on hot–rolled
steel from Thailand by April 22, 2009.
However, it is not practicable to
complete the review within this time
period. In order to evaluate fairly the
issues raised by all interested parties in
their respective case and rebuttal briefs,
we are extending the time frame for
completion of this review. As a result,
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.302(b), we are
extending the time limit for completion
of the review by 15 days. See Certain
