Background

    On April 10, 2006, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published the preliminary results of the

[[Page 59079]]

administrative review of the antidumping duty order on pure magnesium 
from the People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See Pure Magnesium from 
the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 71 FR 18067 (April 10, 2006) (``Preliminary 
Results''). In the Preliminary Results, we stated that we would issue 
our final results of review no later than 120 days after the date of 
publication of the preliminary results (i.e., August 8, 2006). On July 
31, 2006, the Department published in the Federal Register a notice 
extending the time limit for the final results of the administrative 
review from August 8, 2006, to September 7, 2006. See Notice of 
Extension of Final Result of the 2004-2005 Administrative Review of 
Pure Magnesium from the People's Republic of China, 71 FR 43110 (July 
31, 2006). Additionally, on September 12, 2006, the Department 
published a notice extending the time limit for the final results of 
review until September 29, 2006. See Notice of Extension of Final 
Results of the 2004-2005 Administrative Review of Pure Magnesium from 
the People's Republic of China, 71 FR 53662 (September 12, 2006). The 
final results of review are currently due no later than September 29, 
2006.

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department to issue the final results in an 
administrative review within 120 days of publication date of the 
preliminary results. However, if it is not practicable to complete the 
review within this time period, the Department may extend the time 
limit for the final results to 180 days. Completion of the final 
results within the 120-day period is not practicable because this 
review involves certain complex issues involving valuation of various 
factors of production.
    Therefore, we are fully extending the time period for issuing the 
final results of review to 180 days until October 7, 2006, in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. However, because 
October 7, 2006, falls on a Saturday, and the next business day October 
9, 2006 is a federal holiday, the final results will be due on October 
10, 2006, the next business day. This notice is published pursuant to 
sections 751(a) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: September 28, 2006.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration
