SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 28, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published the initiation of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on citric acid and certain citrate salts 
(``citric acid'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 76 FR 37781, 37785 (June 
28, 2011). This review covers the period May 1, 2010, through April 30, 
2011. The preliminary results of review are currently due no later than 
January 31, 2012.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Review

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (``the Act''), the Department shall make a preliminary 
determination in an administrative review of an antidumping duty order 
within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of the date 
of publication of the order. The Act further provides, however, that 
the Department may extend that 245-day period to 365 days if it 
determines it is not practicable to complete the review within the 
foregoing time period.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the 
preliminary results of the administrative review of citric acid from 
the PRC within this time limit. Specifically, additional time is needed 
to issue supplemental questionnaires, analyze questionnaire responses, 
and consider relevant evidence and parties' comments regarding 
selecting appropriate surrogate values with which to value factors of 
production. Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act, the Department is extending the time period for completion of the 
preliminary results of this review by 90 days. The preliminary results 
will now be due no later than April 30, 2012.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i) of the Act.
