SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 30, 2010, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register the initiation of administrative 
review of the antidumping duty order on certain preserved mushrooms 
from the People's

[[Page 63441]]

Republic of China, covering the period of February 1, 2009, through 
January 31, 2010. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 75 FR 15679 
(March 30, 2010). The current deadline for the preliminary results of 
this review is October 31, 2010.

Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results of Review

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires that the Department complete the preliminary results of 
an administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the 
anniversary month of an order for which a review is requested. However, 
if it is not practicable to complete the review within this time 
period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend 
the time limit for the preliminary results to a maximum of 365 days 
after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which a 
review is requested.
    The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the 
preliminary results of this review within the original time frame 
because comments from interested parties have necessitated the 
solicitation and subsequent analysis of additional information from all 
respondents: Xiamen International Trade & Industrial Co., Ltd.; Guangxi 
Jisheng Foods, Inc.; and Blue Field (Sichuan) Food Industrial Co., Ltd. 
This additional information covers a wide range of issues and is 
extensive. The Department requires additional time to gather and 
analyze the additional information. Thus, the Department finds it is 
not practicable to complete this review within the original time limit 
(i.e., October 31, 2010). Accordingly, the Department is extending the 
time limit for completion of the preliminary results of this 
administrative review by 120 days (i.e., until February 28, 2011), in 
accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 
351.213(h)(2). We intend to issue the final results no later than 120 
days after publication of the preliminary results notice.
    This extension is issued and published in accordance with sections 
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: October 7, 2010.
Susan H. Kuhbach,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing 
Duty Operations.
