The Department of Commerce
(the ‘‘Department’’) is extending the
time limit for the preliminary results of
the administrative review of sodium
hexametaphosphate (‘‘sodium hex’’)
from the People’s Republic of China
(‘‘PRC’’). The review covers the period
March 1, 2010, through February 28,
2011.
DATES: Effective Date: November 29,
2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul
Walker, AD/CVD Operations, Office 9,
Import Administration, International
Trade Administration, U.S. Department
of Commerce, 14th Street and
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington,
DC 20230, telephone (202) 482–0413.
SUMMARY:
Background
On April 27, 2011, the Department
published in the Federal Register a
notice of initiation of the administrative
review of the antidumping duty order
on sodium hex from the PRC.1 The
preliminary results of the review for
sodium hex from the PRC are currently
due no later than December 1, 2011.
Statutory Time Limits
In antidumping duty administrative
reviews, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
‘‘Act’’), requires the Department to make
a preliminary determination within 245
days after the last day of the anniversary
month of an order for which a review
is requested and a final determination
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.
Second Administrative Review of
Sodium Hexametaphosphate From the
People’s Republic of China: Extension
of Preliminary Results
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary
Results of Review
We determine that it is not practicable
to complete the preliminary results of
this administrative review within the
original time limit because the
Department requires additional time to
analyze questionnaire responses, issue
supplemental questionnaires, possibly
