Certain Steel Threaded Rod From the People's Republic of China: 
Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Department of Commerce.

DATES: Effective Date: July 22, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Toni Dach or Steven Hampton, AD/CVD 
Operations, Office 9, Import Administration, International Trade 
Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-
1655 or (202) 482-0116, respectively.

Background

    On May 9, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published in the Federal Register the Preliminary Results of the 
administrative review of certain steel threaded rod from the People's 
Republic of China (``PRC''), covering the period October 8, 2008-March 
31, 2010. See Certain Steel Threaded Rod From the People's Republic of 
China: Preliminary Results of the First Administrative Review and 
Preliminary Rescission, in Part, 75 FR 26696 (May 9, 2011).

Extension of Time Limit for the Final Results

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act''), requires the Department to issue the final results of an 
administrative review within 120 days after the date on which the 
preliminary results have been published. If it is not practicable to 
complete the review within the time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act allows the Department to extend this deadline to a maximum of 180 
days. The current deadline for the completion of the final results of 
this review is September 6, 2011.
    The Department has determined that completion of the final results 
of this review by the current deadline is not practicable. The 
Department requires more time to analyze a significant amount of 
complex information, including information pertaining to the labor wage 
rate surrogate value. Therefore, given the number and complexity of 
issues in this case, and in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the 
Act, we are extending the time period for issuing the final results of 
review by 55 days to October 31, 2011.
    This notice is published pursuant to sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 
777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: July 18, 2011.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
