SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On September 12, 2007, the Department initiated new shipper reviews 
of Dongguan Bon Ten Furniture Co., Ltd. (``Bon Ten'') and Dongguan Mu 
Si Furniture Co., Ltd. (``Mu Si'') covering the period January 1, 2007, 
through July 31, 2007. See Wooden Bedroom Furniture From the People's 
Republic of China: Initiation of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Reviews, 
72 FR 52083 (September 12, 2007). The preliminary results of the new 
shipper reviews are currently due no later than February 27, 2008.

Statutory Time Limits

    Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
``Act''), provides that the Department will issue the preliminary 
results of a new shipper review of an antidumping duty order within 180 
days after the day on which the review was initiated. See also 19 CFR 
351.214 (i)(1). The Act further provides that the Department may extend 
that 180-day period to 300 days if it determines that the case is 
extraordinarily complicated. See 19 CFR 351.214 (i)(2).

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary Results

    The Department determines that these new shipper reviews involve 
complicated methodological issues and the examination of importer 
information. Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of 
the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2), the Department is extending the time 
limit for these preliminary results by 90 days, until no later than May 
27, 2008. The final results continue to be due 90 days after the 
publication of the preliminary results.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: February 21, 2008.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
