SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 10, 2009, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published the preliminary results of administrative review of purified 
carboxymethylcellulose from Mexico for the July 1, 2007, through June 
30, 2008, period of review. See Purified Carboxymethylcellulose From 
Mexico: Notice of Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 74 FR 16359 (April 10, 2009). The final results 
for this administrative review are currently due no later than August 
8, 2009.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department to complete the final results of an 
administrative review within 120 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results are published. However, if it is not practicable to 
complete the review within these time periods, section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act allows the Department to extend the 120 day time period for the 
final results to 180 days.
    The Department has determined it is not practicable to complete 
this review within the statutory time limit because of significant 
issues that require additional time to evaluate. These include 
questions involving entry dates and entered values, necessitating a 
post-preliminary supplemental questionnaire. Accordingly, the 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the final 
results of this administrative review until no later than October 7, 
2009, which is 180 days after the date on which the preliminary results 
of review were published.
