See section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). The Department finds that this case is extraordinarily complicated.

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the

Act allows the Department to extend the 120-day time period for the

interested parties. For example, among other things, we need to further 
analyze cost adjustments related to revenues earned by Maquilacero on a 
special project and those related to sales of merchandise not produced 
during the period of review. Accordingly, the Department is extending 
the time limit for completion of the final results of this

150 days after the date on which the preliminary results of review were 
published.
