FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Hilary E. Sadler, AD/CVD Operations,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Department of Commerce (``Department'') published an 
antidumping duty order on hand trucks and certain parts thereof (``hand 
trucks'') from the People's Republic of China (``PRC'') on December 2, 
2004. See Notice of Antidumping Duty Order: Hand Trucks and Certain 
Parts Thereof From the People's Republic of China, 69 FR 70122 
(December 2, 2004). On February 2, 2007, the Department published in 
the Federal Register a notice of the initiation of the antidumping duty 
administrative review of hand trucks from the PRC for the period 
December 1, 2005, through November 30, 2006. See Initiation of 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request 
for Revocation in Part, 72 FR 5005 (February 2, 2007). The preliminary 
results of this review are currently due no later than September 2, 
2007.

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary Results.

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(``Act''), requires the Department to issue preliminary results within 
245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for 
which a review is requested and 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 this time period, 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend the 
245-day time period to a maximum of 365 days. We determine that 
completion of the preliminary results of this review within the 245-day 
period is not practicable because the Department requires additional 
time to analyze information pertaining to the respondents' sales 
practices, factors of production, and to issue and review responses to 
supplemental questionnaires.
    Because it is not practicable to complete this review within the 
time specified under the Act, we are extending the time period for 
issuing the preliminary results of review by 90 days until December 1, 
2007, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. Because 
December 1, 2007, falls on a Saturday, the preliminary results will be 
due by December 3, 2007, the next business day. The final results 
continue to be due 120 days after the publication of the preliminary 
results.
    This notice is published pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: August 31, 2007.
Gary Taverman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
