AGENCY:
Background
On January 29, 2010, the Department
published a notice of initiation of the
antidumping duty administrative review
of certain hot-rolled carbon steel flat
products from India for the period
December 1, 2008, through November
30, 2009. See Initiation of Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews, Request for Revocation in Part,
and Deferral of Initiation of
Administrative Review, 75 FR 4770
(January 29, 2010). On September 14,
2010, in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), the Department
extended the deadline for the
preliminary results by 120 days. See
Certain Hot–Rolled Carbon Steel Flat
Products from India: Extension of Time
Limit for Preliminary Results of the
Antidumping Duty Administrative
Review, 75 FR 55742 (September 14,
2010). On January 13, 2011, the
Department published in the Federal
Register, the Preliminary Results of this
review. See Certain Hot-Rolled Carbon
Steel Flat Products From India: Notice
of Preliminary Results of Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR 2344
(January 13, 2011) (Preliminary Results).
The final results of this review are
currently due no later than May 13,
2011.

Extension of Time Limit of the Final
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act,
requires the Department to issue the
final results of a review within 120 days
after the date on which the preliminary
results are published. However, if it is
not practicable to complete the review
within that time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend the time limit for
the final results to a maximum of 180
days. See 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).
We determine that it is not practicable
to complete the final results of this
review within the original time limit
because the Department needs
additional time to evaluate information
on the record and arguments raised by
parties with respect to Tata Steel
Limited’s single entry of subject
merchandise. Therefore, the Department
is fully extending the time limit for the
final results to July 12, 2011, in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).
This notice is published pursuant to
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the
Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 11, 2011, the Department
published its Preliminary Results for the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on persulfates
from the PRC covering the July 1, 2009,
through June 30, 2010, period of review
(‘‘POR’’). For the Preliminary Results,
because United Initiators (Shanghai)
Co., Ltd. (‘‘United Initiators’’) did not
respond to the Department’s
questionnaire, we were unable to
determine if United Initiators was
eligible for a separate rate.2 United
Initiators did not rebut the Department’s
presumption of government control and
was, therefore, presumed to be part of
the PRC-wide entity. Further, in
accordance with sections 776(a)(2)(A)
and (B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (‘‘Act’’), because the PRC-wide
entity (including United Initiators)
failed to cooperate to the best of its
ability by not responding to our
questionnaire, we found it appropriate
to use adverse facts available.3 On
March 21, 2011, FMC submitted
comments stating that it fully supports
the Department’s Preliminary Results.
No other party submitted comments.
Scope of the Order
The products covered by this review
are persulfates, including ammonium,
potassium, and sodium persulfates. The
chemical formula for these persulfates
are, respectively, (NH4)2S2O8, K2S2O8,
and Na2S2O8. Potassium persulfates are
currently classifiable under subheading
2833.40.10 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
2 On October 8, 2010, the Department confirmed
that United Initiators signed for and received our
mailing of the antidumping duty questionnaire.
United Initiators did not respond to the
Department’s antidumping duty questionnaire. On
January 3, 2011, the Department placed on the
record of this administrative review the UPS
International Air Waybill receipt and delivery
confirmation for the questionnaire issued to United
Initiators to confirm that we mailed, and United
Initiators received and signed for, the questionnaire.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Background
On July 28, 2010, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of the administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on certain polyester staple fiber from the
PRC. See Initiation of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Administrative
Reviews and Requests for Revocations in
Part, 75 FR 44224 (July 28, 2010). The
preliminary results of this review are
currently due no later than May 31,
2011.
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 within 245 days
after the last day of the anniversary
month of an order for which a review
is requested and the final results within
120 days after the date on which the
preliminary results are published.
However, if it is not practicable to
complete the review within these time
periods, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act
allows the Department to extend the
time limit for the preliminary
determination to a maximum of 365
days after the last day of the anniversary
month. Although we previously
extended the 245-day period by 90 days
for completion of the review, we have
determined that completion of the
preliminary results of this review within
the extended 335-day period is not
practicable because the Department
needs additional time to complete
verification reports.
Because it is not practicable to
complete this review within the
extended 335-day time period, we are
fully extending the time limit for
completion of the preliminary results of
this administrative review by 30 days.
The preliminary results will now be due
no later than June 30, 2011. The final
results continue to be due 120 days after
the publication of the preliminary
results.

for the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on
persulfates from the PRC covering the July 1, 2009, through June 30,

Scope of the Order
The products covered by this review are persulfates, including
ammonium, potassium, and sodium persulfates. The chemical formula for
these persulfates are, respectively,
(NH4)2S2O8,
K2S2O8, and
Na2S2O8. Potassium persulfates are
currently classifiable under subheading 2833.40.10 of the Harmonized

description of the scope of this review is dispositive.
Analysis of Comments Received

Protection (``CBP'') shall assess, antidumping duties on all
appropriate entries covered by this review. The Department intends to
issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication date
of the final results of this review.
Cash Deposit Requirements
The following deposit requirements will be effective upon
publication of this notice of final results of administrative review
for all shipments of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication, as
provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the PRC-wide
entity (which includes United Initiators), the cash deposit rate will
be the PRC-wide rate established in these final results of review; (2)
for previously investigated or reviewed PRC and non-PRC exporters not
listed above that have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will

merchandise which have not received their own rate, the cash deposit
rate will be the rate applicable to the PRC exporters that supplied
that non-PRC exporter. These deposit requirements shall remain in

Notification of Interested Parties
This notice also serves as a final reminder to importers of their
responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping duties. This notice also serves as a
reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order
(``APO'') of their responsibility concerning the return or destruction
of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19
CFR 351.305, which continues to govern business proprietary information
in this segment of the proceeding. Timely written notification of the
return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial
protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the
regulations and terms of an APO is a violation that is subject to
sanction.
This notice of the final results of this administrative review is
issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and
777(i)(1) of the Act.
