FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Devta Ohri or Andrew McAllister, AD/

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Statutory Time Limits

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department of Commerce (``Department'') to issue 
the preliminary results of an administrative review within 245 days 
after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which a 
review is requested and a final determination within 120 days after the 
date on which the preliminary results are published. If it is not 
practicable to complete the review within the time period, section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend these deadlines 
to a maximum of 365 days and 180 days, respectively.

Background

    On June 30, 2005, the Department published a notice of initiation 
of administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain 
polyester staple fiber (``PSF'') from Taiwan, covering the period May 
1, 2004, through April 30, 2005. See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 70 FR 37749 (June 30, 
2005). After being extended once, the preliminary results for the 
antidumping duty administrative review of certain PSF from Taiwan are 
due no later than May 24, 2006. See Certain Polyester Staple Fiber From 
Taiwan and the Republic of Korea: Notice of Extension of Time Limit for 
2004-2005 Administrative Reviews, 71 FR 1508 (January 10, 2006).

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    The Department requires additional time to review and analyze Far 
Eastern Textile Limited's most recent supplemental questionnaire 
response. Thus, it is not practicable to complete this review within 
the previously established time limit (i.e., May 24, 2006). Therefore, 
the Department is extending the time limit for completion of the 
preliminary results to not later than May 31, 2006, in accordance with 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: May 22, 2006.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
