SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 8, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``the

[[Page 76765]]

Department'') published the preliminary results of this administrative 
review of certain cut-to-length carbon steel plate (``cut-to-length 
plate'') from Romania. See Certain Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel Plate 
from Romania: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review and Partial Rescission, 70 FR 53333 (September 8, 2005) 
(``Preliminary Results''). In the Preliminary Results we stated that we 
would make our final determination for the antidumping duty review no 
later than 120 days after the date of publication of the preliminary 
results (i.e., January 6, 2006).

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

    The Department is extending the time limit for the final results of 
the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on cut-to-
length plate from Romania. This review covers the period August 1, 
2003, through July 31, 2004.
    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), states that if it is not practicable to complete the review 
within the time specified, the administering authority may extend the 
120-day period, following the date of publication of the preliminary 
results, to issue its final results by an additional 60 days. Due to 
the complexity of issues raised in this review segment, including the 
respondent's notification of unreported sales following the 
Department's preliminary results, and the respondent's withdrawal of 
its business proprietary versions of all information submitted on the 
record of this review, the completion of the final results within the 
120-day period is not practicable.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time period for issuing the final results 
of review by an additional 31 days until no later than February 6, 
2006.

    Dated: December 21, 2005.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
