On September 12, 2011, the Department issued a second supplemental questionnaire to the respondent, requesting additional information regarding both its U.S. sale and factors of production. The preliminary results for this new shipper review are currently due on September 20, 2011. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1), requires the Department to issue the preliminary results in a new shipper review of an antidumping duty order 180 days after the date on which the new shipper review was initiated. The Department may however, extend the deadline for completion of the preliminary results of a new shipper review to 300 days if it determines that the case is extraordinarily complicated. See 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). The Department determines that this new shipper review involves extraordinarily complicated methodological issues, including the need to analyze the information requested in the recently issued supplemental questionnaire, as well as, information pertaining to the bona fide nature of the new shipper’s sale. In addition, parties have submitted voluminous surrogate country comments and surrogate value data, and 2 See Certain Frozen Fish Fillets From the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review, 76 FR 17837 (March 31, 2011). 3 See Memorandum for All Interested Parties, through Matthew Renkey, Acting Program Manager Import Administration, from Emeka Chukwudebe, Case Analyst, Import administration, Re: Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review of Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Extension of Time Request to Submit Surrogate Values and Surrogate Country Selection Comments, dated June 23, 2011. 4 See Memorandum for All Interested Parties, from Emeka Chukwudebe, Case Analyst, Import administration, Re: Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review of Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Extension of Time to Submit Rebuttal Surrogate Country and Surrogate Value Comments, dated August 5, 2011. 16:35 Sep 26, 2011 Jkt 223001 Dated: September 16, 2011.
