Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 10, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deborah Scott or Robert James, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 29, 2009, the Department of 
Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on carbazole violet 
pigment 23 (CVP 23) from the People's Republic of China for the period 
December 1, 2007 through November 30, 2008. See Carbazole Violet 
Pigment 23 From the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 74 FR 68780 (December 29, 2009) 
(Preliminary Results). The final results of this administrative review 
were originally due no later than April 28, 2010. As explained in the 
memorandum from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import 
Administration, the Department has exercised its discretion to toll 
deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government 
from February 5 through February 12, 2010. Thus, the deadline for 
issuing the final results of this administrative review has been 
extended by seven days, until May 5, 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 Limits for 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. However, if it is not practicable to 
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 after the date on which the preliminary results 
are published.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete this 
review by May 5, 2010 because the Department requires additional time 
to consider issues related to surrogate valuation. Consequently, in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is 
extending the time limit for completion of the final results of this 
administrative review by 45 days to June 19, 2010. As this date falls 
on a Saturday, the final results will be due on the next business day, 
which is June

Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the 
Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 
777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: May 4, 2010.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
