Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review: Honey from Argentina

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

EFFECTIVE DATE:  January 31, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Cordell or Robert James, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office 7, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-

    On November 24, 2006, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published the preliminary results of the new shipper review of the 
antidumping duty order on honey from Argentina, covering the period 
December 1, 2004, through December 31, 2005, and the following 
exporter: Patagonik S.A. See Honey From Argentina: Preliminary Results 
of New Shipper Review, 71 FR 67850 (November 24, 2006). On December 15, 
2006, the Federal Register published a correction notice due to 
typographical errors in the original preliminary results notice. See 
Corrections Honey From Argentina: Preliminary Results of New Shipper 
Review, 71 FR 75614 (December 15, 2006). The final results are 
currently due on February 14, 2007.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The November 24, 2006, Federal Register Notice stated the 
Department would issue final results within 120 days of publication 
of the Preliminary Results. The Notice should have read that the 
Department will issue the final results within 90 days after the 
date on which the preliminary results were issued. See 19 CFR 
351.214(i)(1). The Department hereby corrects this inadvertent 
error.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the Department to issue the 
final results of a new shipper review within 90 days after the date on 
which the preliminary results were issued. The Department may, however, 
extend the deadline for completion of the final results of a new 
shipper review to 150 days if it determines that the case is 
extraordinarily complicated. See section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).
    As a result of extraordinarily complicated issues raised in the 
review segment, specifically the multiple issues raised by petitioner 
with regard to the bona fide nature of the sale as well as issues 
regarding the beekeepers' costs, it is not practicable to complete this 
new shipper review within the current time limit. Accordingly, the 
Department is extending the time limit for the completion of the final 
results by 60 days until April 15, 2007, in accordance with section 
751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). Because April 15 
falls on a Sunday, the deadline for the completion of the final results 
is April 16, 2007, the next business day.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
751(a)(2)(B) of the Act.

    Dated: January 23, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretaryfor Import Administration.
