SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 12, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register the preliminary results of this 
antidumping administrative review. Floor-Standing, Metal-Top Ironing 
Tables and Certain Parts Thereof from the People's Republic of China: 
Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 71 FR 
53655 (September 12, 2006).

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Pursuant to Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (the Act), and section 351.213(h)(1) of the Department's 
regulations, the Department shall issue the preliminary results of an 
administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the 
anniversary month of the date of publication of the order. The Act 
further provides that the Department shall issue the final results of 
review within 120 days after the date on which the notice of the 
preliminary results was published in the Federal Register. However, if 
the Department determines that it is not practicable to complete the 
review within this time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 
section 351.213(h)(2) of the Department's regulations allow the 
Department to extend the 245-day period to 365 days and the 120-day 
period to 180 days.
    In the instant review, the Department finds that the current 
deadline for the final results is not practicable. The Department 
requires additional time to conduct verifications of the exporters, and 
review and analyze interested party comments. As a result, the 
Department has determined to extend the current time limits of this 
administrative review. For these reasons, the Department is fully 
extending the time limit for the completion of these final results 
until no later than Monday, March 12, 2007, which is the first business 
day 180 days from the date on which the notice of the preliminary 
results was published.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: October 16, 2006.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
