AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 16, 2006.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eugene Degnan or Robert Bolling, AD/
CVD Operations, Office 8, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 14, 2006, the Department published its preliminary results. 
See Tapered Roller Bearings and Parts Thereof, Finished and Unfinished, 
from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of 2003-2004 
Antidumping Administrative Review, and Notice of Intent to Rescind in 
Part, 71 FR 40069 (July 14, 2006) (``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., 
November 11, 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 of Commerce (``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, such 
as a tariff classification and surrogate financial ratios that both 
Petitioner and respondent addressed in their briefs.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 
19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), the Department is partially extending the time 
period for issuing these final results of review by 30 days until 
December 11, 2006.

    Dated: November 7, 2006.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
