Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Review

    The Department of Commerce (``the Department'') is extending the 
time limit for the final results of the sunset review of the 
antidumping duty order on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film from 
South Korea (Korea). In accordance with section 751(c)(5)(B) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), the Department may extend 
the period of time for making its determination 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. A transition order is defined as any antidumping or 
countervailing duty order which was in effect on January 1, 1995, the 
date on which the WTO Agreement entered into force with respect to the 
United States. See section 751(c)(6)(C) of the Act. The antidumping 
duty order subject to this sunset review was issued prior to January 1, 
1995, and as such, is a transition order. Therefore, the Department has 
determined, pursuant to section 751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, that the 
sunset review of the antidumping duty order on PET film from Korea is 
extraordinarily complicated and requires additional time for the 
Department to complete its analysis. The Department's final results of 
this sunset review were scheduled for June 2, 2005. The Department will 
extend the deadline in this proceeding and, as a result, intends to 
issue the final results of the sunset review of the antidumping duty 
order on PET film from Korea on August 31, 2005, which is 90 days from 
the original deadline.
    This notice is issued in accordance with sections 751(c)(5)(B) and 
(C)(v) of the Act.

    Dated: May 19, 2005.
Barbara E. Tillman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
