SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

VerDate Mar<15>2010
Reasons: Each foreign instrument is an
electron microscope and is intended for
research or scientific educational uses
requiring an electron microscope. We
know of no electron microscope, or any
other instrument suited to these
purposes, which was being
manufactured in the United States at the
time of order of each instrument.
Background
On August 31, 2011, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’)
published a notice of preliminary
results of the administrative review of
the countervailing duty order on
corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat
products from the Republic of Korea
covering the period January 1, 2009,
through December 31, 2009. See
Corrosion-Resistant Carbon Steel Flat
Products From the Republic of Korea:
Preliminary Results of Countervailing
Duty Administrative Review, 76 FR
54209 (August 31, 2011) (‘‘Preliminary
Results’’). The final results were
originally due no later than December
29, 2011.
Extension of Time Limit for Final
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’),
requires the Department to make a final
determination within 120 days after the
date on which the preliminary results is
published. Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
77775
Act further states that if it is not
practicable to complete the review
within the time period specified, the
administering authority may extend the
120-day period to issue its final results
to up to 180 days.
We have determined that it is not
practicable to complete the final results
within the 120-day period. Specifically,
after the issuance of the Preliminary
Results, complex issues arose
concerning the short-term benchmark
interest rate. Therefore, to allow
sufficient time to collect and analyze the
additional information, and to conduct
the briefing process, the Department is
fully extending the final results.
Therefore, in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are extending
the time period for issuing the final
results of the review by 60 days. The
final results are now due no later than
February 27, 2012.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of
the Act.
Dated: December 7, 2011.
