Background
On July 14, 2010, the Department of
Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published in
the Federal Register the Preliminary
Results of the second administrative
review of certain polyester staple fiber
(‘‘PSF’’) from the People’s Republic of
China (‘‘PRC’’), covering the period June
1, 2008–May 31, 2009. Certain Polyester

the Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 75 FR 40777 (July 14, 2010)
(‘‘Preliminary Results’’).
Extension of Time Limit for the
Preliminary Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to issue the
E:\FR\FM\20OCN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 202 / Wednesday, October 20, 2010 / Notices
final results of an administrative review
within 120 days after the date on which
the Preliminary Results have been
published. If it is not practicable to
complete the review within the time
period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act
allows the Department to extend this
deadline to a maximum of 180 days.
The current deadline for the completion
of the final results of this review is
November 11, 2010.
The Department has determined that
completion of the final results of this
review by the current deadline is not
practicable. The Department requires
more time to analyze a significant
amount of information pertaining to the
respondents’ corporate structure and
ownership, sales practices and
manufacturing methods, as well as the
labor wage rate surrogate value.
Therefore, given the number and
complexity of issues in this case, and in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act, we are extending the time
period for issuing the final results of
review until December 20, 2010.
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(1)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

Hubei Xingfa Chemical Group Co., Ltd.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
As noted above, on April 15, 2010, the
Department published the Preliminary
Results of this administrative review.
On August 10, 2010, the Department
published a notice extending the time
period for issuing the final results by 53
days to October 5, 2010.2 On October 5,
2010, the Department extended the time
period for issuing the final results by an
additional 7 days to October 12, 2010.3
On July 26, 2010, the Department placed
wage rate data on the record for
comment following the recent decision
in Dorbest Limited et al. v. United
States, 2009–1257, –1266, issued by the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit (‘‘CAFC’’) on May 14,
2010.4 Between May 21, 2010 and
August 13, 2010, we received case and
rebuttal briefs from the Petitioners 5 and
Xingfa.
Analysis of Comments Received

rebuttal briefs by parties are addressed
in the ‘‘First Administrative Review of
Sodium Hexametaphosphate from the
People’s Republic of China: Issues and

The I&D Memo is a public document
and is on file in the Central Records
Unit (‘‘CRU’’), Main Commerce Building,
Room 7046, and is accessible on the
Department’s Web site at
https://www.trade.gov/ia. The paper
copy and electronic version of the
memorandum are identical in content.
Changes Since the Preliminary Results
Based on a review of the record, as
well as comments received from parties
regarding our Preliminary Results, we
have made revisions to Xingfa’s margin
calculation for the final results. We have
revised classifications for certain
expenses in the surrogate financial
ratios used in the Preliminary Results.
Specifically, we have excluded packing
costs and freight and forwarding costs
because it is the Department’s practice
to exclude certain expenses in order to
avoid double-counting costs where the
requisite data are available to do so.6
Moreover, consistent with the
Department’s practice, we have
included purchased goods in the
denominator of the SG&A and profit
ratio calculations.7
Pursuant to a recent decision by the
CAFC,8 we have calculated a revised
hourly wage rate to use in valuing
Xingfa’s reported labor. The revised
wage rate is calculated by averaging
earnings and/or wages in countries that
are economically comparable to the PRC
and that are significant producers of
comparable merchandise.9 Additionally,
we have revised the surrogate value for
sodium pyrophosphate.10
Scope of the Order
The merchandise subject to this
review is sodium hexametaphosphate.
Sodium hexametaphosphate is a watersoluble polyphosphate glass that
