Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 9 / Wednesday, January 14, 2009 / Notices 2049 

1The petitioners in this investigation are SGL 

Carbon LLC and Superior Graphite Co. 

companies were assigned the same 

taxpayer identification numbers; 

(4) A statement from a Thai bank 

confirming the change of the company 

account name from AST to AMT in 

August 2006; 

(5) Company outlines dated before 

and after the name change that 

demonstrate no changes in management 

or facilities between the two points in 

time; 

(6) A notice published by the 

European Union Commission 

recognizing the name change from AST 

to AMT for antidumping-duty purposes; 

and 

(7) Copies of letters AST sent to 

customers announcing the name change. 

In summary, AMT has presented 

evidence to establish a prima facie case 

of its successorship status. AST’s name 

change to AMT has not changed the 

operations of the company in a 

meaningful way. AMT’s management, 

production facilities, supplier 

relationships, and customer base are 

substantially unchanged from those of 

AST. The record evidence demonstrates 

that the new entity essentially operates 

in the same manner as the predecessor 

company. Consequently, we 

preliminarily determine that AMT 

should be assigned the same 

antidumping-duty treatment as AST, 

i.e., exclusion from the order. See 

Antidumping Duty Order; Certain 

Carbon Steel Butt-Weld Pipe Fittings 

From Thailand, 57 FR 29702 (July 6, 

1992).

Extension of Time Limit for Final 

Results 

On August 10, 2007, the Department 

of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) issued its 

preliminary results for the changed 

circumstances review of the 

antidumping duty order of certain 

frozen fish fillets from the Socialist 

Republic of Vietnam (‘‘Vietnam’’). See 

Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from 

Vietnam: Notice of Initiation and 

Preliminary Results of Changed 

Circumstances Review, 72 FR 46604 

(August 21, 2007) (Preliminary Results). 

In it, we stated we would issue the final 

results within 270 days after the date on 

which the changed circumstances 

review was initiated. We subsequently 

postponed that deadline until December 

5, 2008. See Certain Frozen Fish Fillets 

from Vietnam: Extension of Time Limit 

for Final Results of Changed 

Circumstances Review, 73 FR 60240 

(October 10, 2008). However, the 

Department now finds that it is not 

practicable to complete this review by 

December 5, 2008. Subsequent to the 

Preliminary Results and receipt of Vinh 

Hoan Co., Ltd./Corporation’s and 

Petitioners’ (the Catfish Farmers of 

America and individual U.S. catfish 

processors) case briefs, the Department 

requested and received new information 

from Vinh Hoan. Moreover, Vinh Hoan 

requested an extension to the time limit 

for submission of this new information. 

As a result, additional time is needed to 

review the information and prepare the 

results. Consequently, in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.302(b), the Department 

is extending the time period for issuing 

the final results until February 18, 2009. 

This notice is published in 

accordance with section 771(i) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. 

Dated: December 5, 2008.
