SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On July 29, 2009, the Department 

published a notice of initiation of the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

polyester staple fiber from the PRC. See 

Initiation of Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Administrative 

Reviews and Deferral of Administrative 

Review, 74 FR 37690 (July 29, 2009). 

The preliminary results of this review 

are currently due no later than March 2, 

2010. 

Statutory Time Limits 

In antidumping duty administrative 

reviews, 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 results are published. 

However, 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. 

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary 

Results of Review 

We determine that it is not practicable 

to complete the preliminary results of 

this administrative review within the 

original time limit because the 

Department requires additional time to 

analyze questionnaire responses, issue 

supplemental questionnaires, and 

evaluate surrogate value submissions for 

purposes of the preliminary results. 

Therefore, the Department is 

extending the time limit for completion 

of the preliminary results of this 

administrative review by 101 days. The 

preliminary results will now be due no 

later than June 11, 2010. The final 

results continue to be due 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) of the Act. 

Dated: February 3, 2010.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for 

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 

Operations.
