Background

    On July 27, 2009, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published the preliminary results of a

[[Page 52452]]

semi-annual new shipper review of the antidumping duty order on 
chlorinated isocyanurates from the People's Republic of China, covering 
the period June 1, 2008, through November 30, 2008, and the exporter, 
Juancheng Kangtai Chemical co., Ltd. (``Kangtai''). See Chlorinated 
Isocyanurates from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results 
of June 2008 through November 2008 Semi-Annual New Shipper Review, 74 
FR 37007 (July 27, 2009). The final results are currently due on 
October 18, 2009.

Extension of Time Limits for Final Results

    Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(``the Act''), and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the Department to issue 
the final results of a new shipper review within 90 days after the date 
on which the preliminary results were issued. The Department may, 
however, extend the 90-day period for completion of the final results 
of a new shipper review to 150 days if it determines that the case is 
extraordinarily complicated. See section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).
    As a result of issues raised in this new shipper review, 
specifically the issue of collapsing Kangtai into a single entity with 
its affiliated supplier, certain surrogate values, and surrogate 
financial ratios, the Department determines that this new shipper 
review is extraordinarily complicated and it cannot complete this new 
shipper review within the current time limit. Accordingly, the 
Department is extending the time limit for the completion of the final 
results by 60 days until December 17, 2009, in accordance with sections 
751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(2)(B) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

    Dated: October 6, 2009.
John M. Andersen,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
