Background

    On July 14, 2010, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published in the Federal Register the Preliminary Results of the second 
administrative review of certain polyester staple fiber (``PSF'') from 
the People's Republic of China (``PRC''), covering the period June 1, 
2008--May 31, 2009. See Certain Polyester Staple Fiber From the 
People's Republic of China: Notice of Preliminary Results and 
Preliminary Rescission, in Part, of the Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review, 75 FR 40777 (July 14, 2010) (``Preliminary Results'').
    The final results of this review are currently due on December 20, 
2010. See Second Antidumping Duty Administrative Review of Certain 
Polyester Staple Fiber From the People's Republic of China: Extension 
of Time Limit for the Final Results, 75 FR 64694 (October 20, 2010).

Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results

    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 after the date on which the 
Preliminary Results have been published. 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. The current deadline for the completion of the final results of 
this review is December 20, 2010.
    The Department has determined that completion of the final results 
of this

review by the current deadline is not practicable. The Department 
requires more time to analyze a significant amount of complex 
information pertaining to the labor wage rate surrogate value. 
Therefore, given the number and complexity of issues in this case, and 
in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are extending 
the time period for issuing the final results of review until January 
10, 2011.
    This notice is published pursuant to sections 751(1)(3)(A) and 
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: December 6, 2010.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
