Circumstances Review

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 14, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Javier Barrientos, AD/CVD Operations,

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

    On August 10, 2007, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
issued its preliminary results for the changed circumstances review of 
the antidumping duty order of certain frozen fish fillets from the 
Socialist Republic of Vietnam (``Vietnam''). See Certain Frozen Fish 
Fillets from Vietnam: Notice of Initiation and Preliminary Results of 
Changed Circumstances Review, 72 FR 46604 (August 21, 2007) 
(Preliminary Results). In it, we stated we would issue the final 
results within 270 days after the date on which the changed 
circumstances review was initiated. We subsequently postponed that 
deadline until December 5, 2008. See Certain Frozen Fish Fillets from 
Vietnam: Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Changed 
Circumstances Review, 73 FR 60240 (October 10, 2008). However, the 
Department now finds that it is not practicable to complete this review 
by December 5, 2008. Subsequent to the Preliminary Results and receipt 
of Vinh Hoan Co., Ltd./Corporation's and Petitioners' (the Catfish 
Farmers of America and individual U.S. catfish processors) case briefs, 
the Department requested and received new information from Vinh Hoan. 
Moreover, Vinh Hoan requested an extension to the time limit for 
submission of this new information. As a result, additional time is 
needed to review the information and prepare the results. Consequently, 
in accordance with 19 CFR 351.302(b), the Department is extending the 
time period for issuing the final results until February 18, 2009.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 771(i) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

    Dated: December 5, 2008.
Gary Taverman,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Operations.
