AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration,

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 12, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deborah Scott or Robert James, AD/CVD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 30, 2008, the Department of 
Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the 
administrative review of the antidumping duty order on honey from 
Argentina for the period December 1, 2006 through November 30, 2007. 
See Honey from Argentina: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review and Intent to Revoke Order in Part, 73 FR 79802 
(December 30, 2008). The current deadline for the final results of this 
review is April 29, 2009.

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 due to additional analysis that 
must be performed with respect to respondent Patagonik S.A.'s cost of 
production and sales of subject merchandise. Consequently, and in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.213(h)(2), the Department is fully extending the time limit for 
completion of the final results of this administrative review by 60 
days, to June 28, 2009. As this date falls on a Sunday, the final 
results are due June 29, 2009. See Notice of Clarification: Application 
of ``Next Business Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination 
Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 
(May 10, 2005).
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act.

    Dated: March 4, 2009.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
