SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On August 8, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the 
countervailing duty order on certain pasta from Italy, covering the 
period January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009. See Certain Pasta

Administrative Review, 76 FR 48130 (August 8, 2011) (``Preliminary 
Results''). In the Preliminary Results we stated that we would issue 
our final results for the countervailing duty administrative review no 
later than 120 days after the date of publication of the Preliminary 
Results. The final results are currently due December 6, 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 final results of an 
administrative review within 120 days of the publication of the 
Preliminary Results. 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.

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    The Department has determined that completion of the final results 
of this review within the original time period (i.e., by December 6, 
2011) is not practicable. In the Preliminary Results, the Department 
investigated several new subsidy programs, and the Department requires 
more time to consider the comments of interested parties concerning the 
countervailability of these programs. Therefore, the Department is 
extending the time limit for completion of the final results to not 
later than February 4, 2012, which is 180 days from the date of 
publication of the Preliminary Results, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. However, February 4, 2012, is a Saturday, and, 
when a deadline falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the appropriate 
deadline is the next business day. See Notice of Clarification: 
Application of ``Next Business Day'' Rule for Administrative 
Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended,

will be due no later than February 6, 2012.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: October 14, 2011.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
