Background 

On March 23, 2005, the Department of 

Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) 

published in the Federal Register the 

notice of initiation of the administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on low enriched uranium from France, 

covering the period February 1, 2004, 

through January 31, 2005. See Initiation 

of Antidumping and Countervailing 

Duty Administrative Reviews and 

Requests for Revocation in Part, 70 FR 

14643 (March 23, 2005). 

Extension of Time Limits for 

Preliminary Results 

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

of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’) requires the 

Department to issue the preliminary 

results of an administrative review 

within 245 days after the last day of the 

anniversary month of an antidumping 

duty order for which a review is 

requested and issue the final results 

within 120 days after the date on which 

the preliminary results are published. 

However, if the Department finds 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. 

Due to the complex nature of the case 

and the need to issue supplemental 

questionnaires, the Department finds 

that it is not practicable to complete the 

preliminary results in this 

administrative review of low enriched 

uranium from France by October 31, 

2005. Therefore, the Department is 

extending the time limit for completion 

of the preliminary results until no later 

than February 28, 2006, in accordance 

with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. The 

deadline for the final results of the 

administrative review continues to be 

120 days after the publication of the 

preliminary results. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

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

Dated: September 29, 2005. 

Barbara E. Tillman, 

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 19, 1999, the Department 

published in the Federal Register an 

amended final determination and 

antidumping duty order on certain 

preserved mushrooms from the PRC. 

See Notice of Amendment of Final 

Determination of Sales at Less Than 

Fair Value and Antidumping Duty 

Order: Certain Preserved Mushrooms 

from the People’s Republic of China, 64 

FR 8308 (February 19, 1999). 

On February 1, 2005, the Department 

published a Notice of Opportunity to 

Request Administrative Review of 

Antidumping or Countervailing Duty 

Order, Finding, or Suspended 

Investigation, 70 FR 5136. On February 

28, 2005, the Petitioner requested, in 

accordance with section 751(a) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’) and 19 

CFR 351.213(b), an administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on certain preserved mushrooms from 

the PRC for thirty companies covering 

the period February 1, 2004, through 

January 31, 2005. On February 7, 2005, 

and February 25, 2005, four Chinese 

companies, Gerber Food (Yunnan) Co., 

Ltd., Green Fresh Foods (Zhangzhou) 

Co., Ltd., Primera Harvest (Xiangfan) 

Co., Ltd., and Raoping Yucun Canned 

Foods Factory requested an 

administrative review. The Department 

notes that these four companies were 

also included in the Petitioner’s 

February 28, 2005, request for an 

administrative review of thirty 

companies. 

On March 23, 2005, the Department 

initiated an administrative review of 

thirty Chinese companies. See Initiation 

of Antidumping and Countervailing 

Duty Administrative Reviews and 

Request for Revocation in Part, 70 FR 

14643 (March 23, 2005). On June 29, 

2005, the Petitioner filed a timely letter 

withdrawing its request for review of 

twenty–five companies. On July 21, 

2005, the Department rescinded the 

reviews for the twenty–five companies. 

See Certain Preserved Mushrooms from 

the People’s Republic of China: Notice 

of Partial Rescission of Antidumping 

Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 

42038 (July 21, 2005). 

Extension of Time Limits for 

Preliminary Results 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the 

Act’’), the Department shall issue 

preliminary results 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. The Act further 

provides, however, that the Department 

may extend that 245-day period to 365 

days if it determines it is not practicable 

to complete the review within the 

foregoing time period. The Department 

finds that it is not practicable to 

complete the preliminary results within 

the originally anticipated time limit of 

October 31, 2005 due to complex 

respondent specific issues of production 

processes and sales. The Department 

has deemed it necessary to provide 

additional time to conduct a thorough 

analysis prior to issuing the preliminary 

results. 

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

section 351.213(h)(2) of the 

Department’s regulations allow the 

Department to extend the deadline for
