SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On June 26, 2007, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published an extension of the time limit to complete the final results 
of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on stainless 
steel bar from India covering the period February 1, 2005, through 
January 31, 2006. See Stainless Steel Bar from India: Extension of Time 
Limit for the Final Results of the Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review, 72 FR 35033 (June 26, 2007). Due to a clerical error, the due 
date for the completion of the final results was listed as September 6, 
2007. The Department hereby amends the date on which the final results 
are due for completion. The final results are now due on September 4, 
2007.

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department to issue the preliminary results of an 
administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the 
anniversary month of an antidumping duty order for which a review is 
requested and issue the final results within 120 days after the date on 
which the preliminary results are published. However, if it is not 
practicable to complete the review within the time period, section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend these deadlines 
to a maximum of 365 days and 180 days, respectively.
    In accordance with 782(i)(3) of the Act, the Department conducted 
on-site verification of responses submitted by two respondents in this 
review in May and June 2007. Accordingly, the Department must still 
issue the verification findings. Therefore, we find that it is not 
practicable to complete this review within the originally anticipated 
time limit (i.e., by July 5, 2007). Thus, the Department is extending 
the time limit for completion of the final results to no later than 
September 6, 2007, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: June 28, 2007.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
