1The review covers the following companies: C.P. 

Packaging Co., Ltd., Giant Pack Co., Ltd., Landblue 

(Thailand) Co., Ltd., Sahachit Watana Plastics Ind. 

Co., Ltd., Thai Plastic Bags Industries Co., Ltd., and 

Thantawan Industry Public Co., Ltd. Id. The

Plastic Bags Group (TPBG). See Notice of Final 

Determination of Sales at Less than Fair Value: 

Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags From Thailand, 69 

FR 34122, 34123 (June 18, 2004). 

with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the 

Department extended the due date for 

issuing the preliminary results by 92 

days, from the original date of January 

31, 2010, to May 3, 2010. 

As explained in the February 12, 

2010, memorandum from the Deputy 

Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration, the Department has 

exercised its discretion to toll Import 

Administration deadlines for the 

duration of the closure of the Federal 

Government from February 5 through 

February 12, 2010. Thus, all deadlines 

in this segment of the proceeding have 

been extended by seven days. The 

revised deadline for the preliminary 

results of this review is currently May 

10, 2010. See Memorandum to the 

Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for 

Import Administration, regarding 

‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As 

a Result of the Government Closure 

During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated 

February 12, 2010. 

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 

Results 

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

requires the Department to make a 

preliminary determination within 245 

days after the last day of the anniversary 

month of an order for which a review 

is requested and a final determination 

within 120 days after the date on which 

the preliminary determination is 

published in the Federal Register. If it 

is not practicable to complete the review 

within these time periods, section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the 

Department to extend the time limit for 

the preliminary determination to a 

maximum of 365 days after the last day 

of the anniversary month. 

We determine that it is not practicable 

to complete the preliminary results of 

this review by the current deadline of 

May 10, 2010, because before issuing 

the preliminary results of review we 

intend to verify the sales of a 

respondent to this review. Also, we 

have granted several extensions 

requested by the respondent to respond 

to our requests for information in this 

administrative review and, as a result, 

need additional time to analyze the 

respondent’s submissions. Therefore, in 

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

the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), we 

are extending the time period for issuing 

the preliminary results of this review by 

28 days from May 10, 2010, to June 7, 

2010. 

This notice is published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 

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

Dated: April 27, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On August 9, 2004, the Department of 

Commerce published in the Federal 

Register the antidumping duty order on 

polyethylene retail carrier bags from 

Thailand. See Antidumping Duty Order: 

Polyethylene Retail Carrier Bags From 

Thailand, 69 FR 48204 (August 9, 2004). 

On September 22, 2009, we published a 

notice of initiation of an administrative 

review of six companies. See Initiation 

of Antidumping and Countervailing 

Duty Administrative Reviews and 

Requests for Revocation in Part, 74 FR 

48224, 48226 (September 22, 2009).1

The period of review is August 1, 2008 

through July 31, 2009. 

As explained in the February 12, 

2010, memorandum from the Deputy 

Assistant Secretary for Import 

Administration, the Department has 

exercised its discretion to toll Import 

Administration deadlines for the 

duration of the closure of the Federal 

Government from February 5 through 

February 12, 2010. Thus, the deadline in 

this segment of the proceeding has been 

extended by seven days. This revised 

deadline for the preliminary results of 

this administrative review is now May 

10, 2010. See Memorandum to the 

Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for 

Import Administration, regarding 

‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As 

a Result of the Government Closure 

During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated 

February 12, 2010. 

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 

Results 

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

of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

the Department to make a preliminary 

determination within 245 days after the 

last day of the anniversary month of an 

order for which a review is requested 

and a final determination within 120 

days after the date on which the 

preliminary determination is published 

in the Federal Register. If it is not 

practicable to complete the review 

within these time periods, section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the 

Department to extend the time limit for 

the preliminary determination to a 

maximum of 365 days after the last day 

of the anniversary month. 

We determine that it is not practicable 

to complete the preliminary results of 

this review by the current deadline of 

May 10, 2010, because we require 

additional time to analyze a number of 

complex cost–accounting and 

corporate–affiliation issues relating to 

this administrative review that have 

been raised by parties to the proceeding. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.213(h)(2), we are extending the time 

period for issuing the preliminary 

results of this review by 50 days to June 

29, 2010. 

This notice is published in 

accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 

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

Dated: April 27, 2010.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Operations.
