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 are published. If it is not practicable to complete 
the review within that time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 
allows the Department to extend the deadline for the final results to a 
maximum of 180 days.
    The Department requires additional time to complete these reviews 
in order to properly consider the numerous and complex issues raised by 
interested parties in their case briefs. Thus, it is not practicable to 
complete these reviews within the original time limit. Therefore, the 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the final 
results of these reviews by 60 days, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. The final results are now due no later than 
September 5, 2007.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: May 9, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
