Background 

On March 9, 2009, the Department of 

Commerce (the Department) published a 

notice for the preliminary results of the 

administrative review of the 

antidumping duty order on certain 

frozen warmwater shrimp from 

Thailand covering the period February 

1, 2007, through January 31, 2008. See 

Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from 

Thailand: Preliminary Results of 

Antidumping Duty Administrative 

Review, 74 FR 10000 (March 9, 2009). 

The final results for this administrative 

review are currently due no later than 

July 7, 2009, 120 days from the date of 

publication of the preliminary results of 

review. 

Extension of Time Limit for the Final 

Results 

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 are published. If it is 

not practicable to complete the review 

within that time period, section 

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

Department to extend the deadline for 

the final results to a maximum of 180 

days after the date on which the 

preliminary results are published. 

The Department requires additional 

time to complete this review because we 

conducted the sales verification after the 

preliminary results and, therefore, case 

and rebuttal briefs will not be received 

until May 29, 2009, and June 9, 2009, 

respectively. Thus, it is not practicable 

to complete this review within the 

original time limit. Therefore, the 

Department is extending the time limit 

for completion of the final results of this 

review by 60 days, in accordance with 

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

results are now due no later than 

September 8, 2009. 

We are issuing and publishing this 

notice in accordance with sections 

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

Dated: May 22, 2009.

whether dry or in solution, and 

regardless of packaging type. The scope 

also includes blends of citric acid, 

sodium citrate, and potassium citrate; as 

well as blends with other ingredients, 

such as sugar, where the unblended
