SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 26, 2007, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published the initiation of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on chlorinated isocyanurates from the People's 
Republic of China (``PRC''). See Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation 
in Part, 72 FR 41057 (July 26, 2007). This review covers the period 
June 1, 2006, through May 31, 2007. The preliminary results of this 
review are currently due no later than March 1, 2008.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Review

    Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended (``the Act''), the Department shall make a preliminary 
determination in an administrative review of an antidumping duty order 
within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of the date 
of publication of the order. The Act further provides, however, that 
the Department may extend that 245-day period to 365 days if it 
determines it is not practicable to complete the review within the 
foregoing time period.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the 
preliminary results of the administrative review of chlorinated 
isocyanurates from the PRC within this time limit. Specifically, due to 
unusually complicated factor of production calculations and additional 
supplemental questionnaires needed to accurately calculate the 
respondents' antidumping duty margins, we find that additional time is 
needed to complete these preliminary results. Therefore, in accordance 
with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is extending the 
time period for completion of the preliminary results of this review by 
60 days until April 30, 2008. The final results continue to be due 120 
days after the publication of the preliminary results.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: February 15, 2008.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
