SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    At the request of interested parties, the Department of Commerce 
(the Department) initiated an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on carbazole violet pigment 23 from India for the period 
December 1, 2007, through November 30, 2008. See Initiation of 
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews and Requests 
for Revocation in Part, 74 FR 5821 (February 2, 2009).

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires the Department to make a preliminary determination 
within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an

[[Page 45611]]

order for which a review is requested and a final determination within 
120 days after the date on which the preliminary determination is 
published. 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 time limit for the preliminary determination to a maximum of 
365 days after the last day of the anniversary month. See also 19 CFR 
351.213(h)(2).
    We determine that it is not practicable to complete the preliminary 
results of this administrative review by the current deadline of 
September 2, 2009, for several reasons. Specifically, the Department 
has granted the respondent several extensions to respond to the 
original and supplemental questionnaires. Accordingly, the Department 
needs additional time to review and analyze the responses submitted by 
the respondent. Further, the Department requires additional time to 
conduct verification. Therefore, in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2), we are extending the 
time period for issuing the preliminary results of these reviews for 75 
days until November 16, 2009. The final results continue to be due 120 
days after the publication of the preliminary results.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: August 27, 2009.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
