SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 15, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of administrative review of certain 
circular welded non-alloy steel pipe from Mexico for the November 1, 
2008, through October 31, 2009, period of review. See Certain Circular 
Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe From Mexico: Preliminary Results of 
Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 75 FR 78216 (December 15, 
2010). The final results for this administrative review are currently 
due no later than April 14, 2011.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires the Department to complete 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 these time periods, section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act allows the Department to extend the 120 day time period for the 
final results to 180 days.
    The Department has determined it is not practicable to complete 
this review within the statutory time limit because of significant 
issues that require additional time to evaluate. These issues include 
complicated questions involving various cost accounting issues, use of 
multiple unaffiliated suppliers' costs, and proper application of facts 
available. Accordingly, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the final results of this administrative review until no 
later than June 13, 2011, which is 180 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results of review were published.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: March 10, 2011.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
