Iron Construction Castings From Brazil, Canada, and China; Solid 
Urea From Russia and Ukraine, and Potassium Permanganate From China: 
Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results of Sunset Reviews of 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders

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

DATES: Effective Date: April 7, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Martha Douthit at 202-482-5050, or 
Hilary Sadler, Esq. at 202-482-4340, Import Administration, 
International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th 
Street & Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230.

Background

    On October 1, 2004, the Department initiated sunset reviews of the 
antidumping orders on Iron Construction Castings from Brazil, Canada, 
and China; Solid Urea from Russia and Ukraine, and Potassium 
Permanganate from China, and the countervailing duty order on Iron 
Construction Casting from Brazil. Based on adequate responses from the 
domestic interested parties and inadequate responses from respondent 
interested parties, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is 
conducting expedited sunset reviews of the antidumping duty orders on 
Iron Construction Castings from Brazil, Canada, and China, Solid Urea 
from Russia and Ukraine, and Potassium Permanganate from China, and the 
countervailing duty on Iron Construction Castings from Brazil. The 
Department's final results of these sunset reviews were originally 
scheduled for January 31, 2005. On December 17, 2004, the Department 
extended the final results of these reviews until March 31, 2005.

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Reviews

    In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Tariff Act of 1930, 
as amended (``the Act''), the U.S. Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') may extend the period of time for making its final 
determination in a sunset review by not more than 90 days if it 
determines that the review is extraordinarily complicated. As set forth 
in 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the Department may treat a sunset review 
as extraordinarily complicated if it is a review of a transition order, 
as is the case in these proceedings. The Department has determined, 
pursuant to section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, that the sunset reviews 
of the antidumping duty orders on Iron Construction Casting from 
Brazil, Canada, and China, Solid Urea from Russia and Ukraine, 
Potassium Permanganate from China, and the countervailing duty order on 
Iron Construction Castings from Brazil, are extraordinarily complicated 
and require additional time for the Department to complete its 
analysis. Therefore, the Department will extend the deadlines in these 
proceedings and, as a result, intends to issue the final results of the 
sunset reviews on Iron Constructions Casting from Brazil, Canada, and 
China, Solid Urea from Russia, and Ukraine, and Potassium Permanganate 
from China, on or about Monday, May 2, 2005, 90 days from the original 
scheduled date of final results of review. This notice is issued and 
published in accordance with sections 751(c)(5)(B) and 751(c)(5)(C)(v) 
of the Act.

    Dated: March 31, 2005.
Barbara E. Tillman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
