1 60 days from October 7, 2009, is December 6, 

2009. However, Department practice dictates that 

where a deadline falls on a weekend, the 

appropriate deadline is the next business day. See

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Statutory Time Limits 

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 

of 1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’), 

requires the Department of Commerce 

(‘‘the Department’’) to issue the 

preliminary results of an administrative 

review within 245 days after the last day 

of the anniversary month of an order for 

which a review is requested and the 

final results within 120 days after the 

date on which the preliminary results 

are 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 these 

deadlines to a maximum of 365 days 

and 180 days, respectively. 

Background 

On June 9, 2009, the Department 

published the preliminary results of the 

2007–2008 administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

polyester staple fiber from the Republic 

of Korea. See Certain Polyester Staple 

Fiber from the Republic of Korea: 

Preliminary Results of the 2007/2008 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 74 FR 27281 (June 9, 2009). In 

our preliminary results, we stated that 

we would issue our final results for the 

antidumping duty administrative review 

no later than 120 days after the date of 

publication of the preliminary results 

(i.e., October 7, 2009). 

Extension of Time Limits for Final 

Results 

The Department has determined that 

completion of the final results of this 

review within the original time period 

is not practicable because the 

Department conducted verification late 

in the proceeding, from July 27, 2009, 

through July 31, 2009, and needs 

additional time to analyze information 

collected at verification in preparation 

for the final results. Thus, in accordance 

with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 

Department is extending the time period 

for issuing the final results of review by 

an additional 60 days, until December 7, 

2009.1

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. 

Dated: September 11, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

February 26, 2009, the Department of 

Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published a 

notice of initiation of an administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on wooden bedroom furniture from the 

People’s Republic of China. See 

Initiation of Antidumping Duty 

Administrative Review, 74 FR 8776 

(February 26, 2009). The period of 

review is January 1, 2008, through 

December 31, 2008. The preliminary 

results of the administrative review are 

currently due no later than October 5, 

2009. 

Extension of Time Limit for 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. However, if it is not practicable 

to complete the review within this time 

period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 

allows the Department to extend the 

time period to a maximum of 365 days. 

Completion of the preliminary results of 

this review within the 245-day period is 

not practicable because the Department 

needs additional time to analyze 

information pertaining to the 

respondents’ sales practices, factors of 

production, and corporate relationships, 

to issue and review responses to 

supplemental questionnaires, and then 

verify the submitted information. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department 

is fully extending the time period for 

completing the preliminary results of 

the instant administrative review until 

February 1, 2010, the first business day 

after the fully extended due date of 

January 31, 2010. The final results 

continue to be due 120 days after the 

publication of the preliminary results. 

This notice is published pursuant to 

sections 751(a) and 777(i) of the Act. 

Dated: September 14, 2009. 

John M. Andersen, 

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Operations.
