Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 48 / Friday, March 13, 2009 / Notices 10885 

from the People’s Republic of China: 

Final Results of Expedited Sunset 

Review, 74 FR 4138 (January 23, 2009). 

On March 6, 2009, the ITC published its 

determination pursuant to section 

751(c) of the Act, that revocation of the 

antidumping duty order on RBAO from 

the PRC would be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to an industry in the United 

States within a reasonably foreseeable 

time. See Refined Brown Aluminum 

Oxide from China; Determination, 74 FR 

9830 (March 6, 2009). 

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by this 

order is ground, pulverized or refined 

brown artificial corundum, also known 

as brown aluminum oxide or brown 

fused alumina, in grit size of 3/8 inch 

or less. Excluded from the scope of the 

order is crude artificial corundum in 

which particles with a diameter greater 

than 3/8 inch constitute at least 50 

percent of the total weight of the entire 

batch. The scope includes brown 

artificial corundum in which particles 

with a diameter greater than 3/8 inch 

constitute less than 50 percent of the 

total weight of the batch. The 

merchandise under investigation is 

currently classifiable under subheadings 

2818.10.20.00 and 2818.10.20.90 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (HTSUS). Although the 

HTSUS subheading is provided for 

convenience and customs purposes, the 

written description of the merchandise 

covered by the order is dispositive. 

Continuation 

As a result of the determinations by 

the Department and the ITC that 

revocation of the antidumping duty 

order would be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of dumping 

and material injury to an industry in the 

United States, pursuant to section 

751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department 

hereby orders the continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on RBAO from 

the PRC. 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

will continue to collect antidumping 

duty cash deposits at the rates in effect 

at the time of entry for all imports of 

subject merchandise. 

The effective date of continuation of 

this order will be the date of publication 

in the Federal Register of this Notice of 

Continuation. Pursuant to section 

751(c)(2) of the Act, the Department 

intends to initiate the next five-year 

review of this order not later than 

February 2014. 

This five-year (sunset) review and this 

notice are in accordance with sections 

751(c) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. 

Dated: March 9, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 1, 2008, the Department 

of Commerce (the Department) 

published the preliminary results of the 

2006–2007 administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on refined 

brown aluminum oxide (RBAO) from 

the People’s Republic of China (PRC) 

covering the period November 1, 2006, 

to October 31, 2007. See Refined Brown 

Aluminum Oxide from the People’s 

Republic of China: Preliminary Results 

of Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 73 FR 72767 (December 1, 

2008). The final results for this 

administrative review are currently due 

no later than March 31, 2009, 120 days 

from the date of publication of the 

preliminary results of review. 

Extension of Time Limit of Final 

Results 

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

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

that the Department 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 after the date on which the 

preliminary results are published. 

The Department requires additional 

time to analyze the interested party 

comments concerning the issue of the 

appropriate surrogate value for the 

major raw material input in the 

production of RBAO. Thus, it is not 

practicable to complete this review 

within the original time limit. 

Therefore, the Department is extending 

the time limit for completion of the final 

results of this review by 60 days, in 

accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 

the Act. Accordingly, the final results 

are now due no later than June 1, 2009, 

the next business day after 180 days 

from the date of publication of the 

preliminary results of review. 

This notice is published pursuant to 

sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the 

Act. 

Dated: March 9, 2009.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for
