SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 

6, 2008, the Department of Commerce 

(the Department) published the 

preliminary results of the administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on stainless steel sheet and strip in coils 

from Mexico for the period July 1, 2006, 

through June 30, 2007. See Stainless

of this review is December 4, 2008. 

Extension of Time Limits for Final

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 were published.

complete the review within this time 

period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 

allows the Department to extend the 

time limit for the final results up to 180 

days from the date of publication of the

practicable to complete this review

and Mexinox USA, Inc.’s cost of 

production and certain adjustments 

made to U.S. price. Consequently, and 

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

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

Department is extending the time limit 

for completion of the final results of this 

administrative review until no later than 

February 2, 2009, which is 180 days 

from the date of publication of the 

preliminary results. This notice is 

published in accordance with section 

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