SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 7, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department)
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the
countervailing duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 (CVP-23) from
India. See Carbazole Violet Pigment 23 from India: Preliminary Results
of Countervailing Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 977 (January 7,
2010). This administrative review covers the period January 1, 2007
through December 31, 2007. This review covers one producer/exporter of
the subject merchandise to the United States, Alpanil Industries Ltd.
(Alpanil).
On February 12, 2010, the Department issued a memorandum revising
all case deadlines. As explained in the memorandum from the Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration, the Department exercised
its discretion to toll deadlines for the duration of the closure of the
Federal Government from February 5 through February 12, 2010. See
Memorandum to the Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import
Administration, Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As a Result of the
Government Closure During the Recent Snowstorm, dated February 12,
2010, a public document on file in the Department's Central Records
Unit (CRU) in Room 1117 of the main Department building. Thus, all
deadlines in all proceedings were extended by seven days. Consequently,
the deadline for the final results of this review was revised from May
7, 2010 to May 14, 2010.
Extension of Time Limit for Final Results
Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1), the Department shall issue
final results in an administrative review of a countervailing duty
order within 120 days after the date on which notice of the preliminary
results was published in the Federal Register. However, if the
Department determines that it is not practicable to complete the review
within the time limits, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213(h)(2) allow the Department to extend the 120-day period up to
180 days.
Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.213(h)(2), we determine that it is not practicable to complete the
results of this review within the original time limit. The Department
had to request additional information from Alpanil after the
preliminary results. Consequently, the Department needs additional time
to analyze this information and to consider comments filed by the
parties. In accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the
Department has decided to extend the time limit for the final results
from 120 days to 145 days; the final results will now be due no later
than June 8, 2010.
This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: May 6, 2010.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Operations.
