SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 5, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain polyester staple fiber from Taiwan. 
See Certain Polyester Staple Fiber from Taiwan: Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 5964 (February 5, 2010). 
The review covers the period May 1, 2008, through April 30, 2009. As 
explained in the memorandum from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Import Administration, we have exercised our discretion to toll 
deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government 
from February 5 through February 12, 2010. Thus, all deadlines in this 
segment of the proceeding have been extended by seven days. 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. The final results of the review are currently due no 
later than June 12, 2010.

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires the Department to complete the final results within 120 
days after the date on which the preliminary results are published. If 
it is not practicable to complete the final results within this time 
period and if the Department did not extend the time for issuing the 
preliminary results, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the 
Department to extend the time limit for the completion of the final 
results to not later than 300 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results are published.
    We determine that it is not practicable to complete the final 
results of this review within the original time limit because we need 
additional time to analyze certain complicated issues, e.g., model-
match issues, for the final results. Therefore, we are extending the 
time period for issuing the final results of this review by 37 days 
until July 19, 2010.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: June 10, 2010.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
