Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 14, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Maryanne Burke, or Robert James, AD/

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 6, 2008, the Department of 
Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on stainless steel 
sheet and strip in coils from Mexico for the period July 1, 2006, 
through June 30, 2007. See Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip in Coils 
From Mexico; Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative 
Review, 73 FR 45708 (August 6, 2008). The current deadline for the 
final results of this review is December 4, 2008.

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 final results of an 
administrative review within 120 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results were 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 time limit for the final 
results up to 180 days from the date of publication of the preliminary 
results.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete this 
review within the original time frame because additional analysis that 
must be performed with respect to respondent ThyssenKrupp Mexinox S.A. 
de C.V. and Mexinox USA, Inc.'s cost of production and certain 
adjustments made to U.S. price. Consequently, and in accordance with 
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), the 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the final 
results of this administrative review until no later than February 2, 
2009, which is 180 days from the date of publication of the preliminary 
results. This notice is published in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

    Dated: October 7, 2008.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
