Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from Thailand: Notice of 
Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results of the 2008-2009 
Administrative Review

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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kate Johnson at (202) 482-4929, or 
David Goldberger at (202) 482-4136, AD/CVD Operations, Office 2, Import 
Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of 
Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C.

Background

    On March 15, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp from Thailand 
covering the period February 1, 2008, through January 31, 2009. See 
Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from Thailand: Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Final Results of Partial 
Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 12188 
(March 15, 2010). The final results for this administrative review are 
currently due no later than July 13, 2010, 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 in 
order to properly consider the numerous and complex issues raised by 
interested parties in their case briefs (e.g., cooked form model 
matching product characteristic and CEP offset). 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. Because September 11, 2010, falls on a 
Saturday, the new deadline for the final results will be September 13, 
2010.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: June 15, 2010.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
