SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 31, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register the initiation of two new shipper 
reviews (NSRs) of the antidumping duty order on certain preserved 
mushrooms from the People's Republic of China, covering the period of 
February 1, 2009, to January 31, 2010. See Certain Preserved Mushrooms 
From the People's Republic of China: Notice of Initiation of 
Antidumping Duty New Shipper Reviews, 75 FR 16075 (March 31, 2010). The 
current deadline for the preliminary results of these reviews is 
September 22, 2010.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results of Review

    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 complete the 
preliminary results of a NSR of an antidumping duty order within 180 
days after the date on which the review is initiated. However, the 
Department may extend the deadline for completion of the preliminary 
results of a NSR to 300 days if it determines the case is 
extraordinarily complicated. See Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act 
and 19 CFR 351.214 (i)(2).
    The Department finds that these NSRs are extraordinarily 
complicated and, therefore, it requires additional time to complete the 
preliminary results. Specifically, the Department requires additional 
time to analyze certain discrepancies that exist between the entry 
documents that Shandong Fengyu Edible Fungus Co., Ltd., submitted to 
the record and those received from Customs and Border Protection 
regarding the same sale. With respect to Tongfa, we also require 
additional time to analyze the record concerning the bona fide nature 
of its sale because of its price relative to the price of other entries 
of subject merchandise during the period of review. Accordingly, the 
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the 
preliminary results of these NSRs by 30 days (i.e., until October 22, 
2010). We intend to issue the final results no later than 90 days after 
publication of the preliminary results.
    This extension is issued and published in accordance with section 
751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).

    Dated: September 22, 2010.
Susan H. Kuhbach,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
