SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 30, 2005, Gleason Industrial Products, Inc. and 
Precision Products, Inc. (the petitioners) requested an administrative 
review of several companies. Between December 30, 2005, and January 3, 
2006, the Department received several additional administrative review 
requests from certain PRC exporters and one U.S. importer of subject 
merchandise. On February 1, 2006, the Department initiated the first 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on hand trucks from 
the PRC. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 71 FR 5241 
(February 1, 2006).
    On February 3, 2006, the Department initiated a new shipper review 
on Since Hardware, pursuant to its request for a new shipper review 
filed on December 27, 2005. See Hand Trucks and Certain Parts Thereof 
From the People's Republic of China; Initiation of New Shipper Review, 
71 FR 5810 (Feb. 3, 2006). The Department received a letter from Since 
Hardware on May 1, 2006, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(j)(3), to: (i) 
waive the time limits for the new shipper review of the antidumping 
duty order on hand trucks and (ii) allow the Department to conduct 
Since Hardware's new shipper review concurrently with the separate 
administrative review of the order on hand trucks and certain parts 
thereof.

Postponement of New Shipper Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(j)(3) and Since Hardware's letter, we 
will conduct this new shipper review concurrently with the December 1, 
2004, through November 30, 2005, administrative review of hand trucks 
from the PRC. Therefore, the preliminary results of the antidumping new 
shipper review, as well as the administrative review, will be due 245 
days from December 31, 2005, the last day of the anniversary month of 
the order. See section 751 (a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (as 
amended) (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.213(h). Thus, the deadline for the 
preliminary results of this new shipper review, as well as the 
administrative review, is September 5, 2006. This notice is issued and 
published pursuant to sections 751(a)(2) and 771(i) of the Act, and 19 
CFR 351.214(j)(3).

    Dated: May 24, 2006.
