Korea: Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 20, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Shane Subler at (202) 482-0189 or 
David Neubacher at (202) 482-5823; AD/CVD Operations, Office 1, Import 
Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 
20230.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 22, 2009, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') published a notice of initiation of administrative review 
of the countervailing duty order on dynamic random access memory 
semiconductors from the Republic of Korea, covering the period January 
1, 2008 through August 10, 2008. See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests for Revocation 
in Part, 74 FR 48224 (September 22, 2009).

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. If it is not practicable to complete 
the review within this 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 Limit for Preliminary Results

    This administrative review is extraordinarily complicated due to 
the complexity of the countervailable subsidy practices found in the 
investigation and a new subsidy allegation. Because the Department 
requires additional time to review, analyze, and possibly verify the 
information, and to issue supplemental questionnaires, it is not 
practicable to complete this review within the original time limit 
(i.e., by May 10, 2010).\1\ Therefore, the Department is extending the 
time limit for completion of the preliminary results by 120 days to not 
later than September 7, 2010, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) 
of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ As explained in the memorandum from the Deputy Assistant 
Secretary for Import Administration, the Department has exercised 
its discretion to toll deadlines for the duration of the closure of 
the Federal Government from February 5, through February 12, 2010. 
As a result, all deadlines in this segment of the proceeding have 
been extended by seven days, and the revised deadline for the 
preliminary determination became May 10, 2010. See Memorandum to the 
Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import Administration, 
regarding ``Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As a Result of the 
Government Closure During the Recent Snowstorm,'' dated February 12, 
2010.

section 751(a)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: April 14, 2010.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
