SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 9, 2009, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published a notice for the preliminary results of the administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on certain frozen warmwater shrimp 
from Ecuador covering the period February 1, 2007, through August 14, 
2007. See Certain Frozen Warmwater Shrimp from Ecuador: Preliminary 
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 74 FR 9983 (March 9, 
2009). The final results for this administrative review are currently 
due no later than July 7, 2009, 120 days from the date of publication 
of the preliminary results of review.

Extension of Time Limit for the 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 are published. If it is not practicable to complete 
the review within that time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act 
allows the Department to extend the deadline for the final results to a 
maximum of 180 days after the date on which the preliminary results are 
published.
    The Department determines that completion of the final results of 
the review within the original time limit is not practicable. Due to 
the complexity of the issues raised in this review, the Department 
requires additional time to review and analyze them in order to 
complete this review. Therefore, the Department is extending the time 
limit for completion of the final results of this review by 60 days, in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. The final results are 
now due no later than September 8, 2009.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: June 8, 2009.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
