SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Background

    On June 28, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on oil country 
tubular goods from the People's Republic of China covering 53 companies 
for the period November 17, 2009, through April 30, 2011. See 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 76 FR 37781 (June 28, 
2011). The POR was corrected to May 19, 2010 through April 30, 2011 in 
Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative 
Reviews and Requests for Revocation in Part, 76 FR 53404 (August 26, 
2011) at footnote four. The preliminary results of review are currently 
due no later than January 31, 2012.

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary Results

    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. We determine that completion of the preliminary 
results of this review within the 245-day period is not practicable 
because the Department requires additional time to analyze information 
pertaining to the respondents' sales practices, factors of production, 
and to issue supplemental questionnaires and review the responses. 
Therefore, we require additional time to complete these preliminary 
results. As a result, 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 until April 30, 2012.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

Duty Operations.
