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 diamond sawblades and parts thereof from the People's 
Republic of China for the period January 23, 2009, through October 31, 
2010. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Administrative Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 75 FR 81565 
(December 28, 2010). On July 15, 2011, we extended the due date for the 
completion of the preliminary results of review by 85 days. See Diamond 
Sawblades and Parts Thereof from the People's Republic of China: 
Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Review, 76 FR 41759 (July 15, 2011). The preliminary 
results of the review are currently due no later than October 26, 2011.

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 complete the preliminary results 
within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order 
for which a review is requested and the final results within 120 days 
after the date on which the preliminary results are 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 results to a maximum of 365 days after 
the last day of the anniversary month.
    We determine that it is not practicable to complete the preliminary 
results of this review within the original time limit because of the 
complexity of issues involving the selection of surrogate country and 
surrogate values and because of the extensions we have granted at the 
request of various parties during the course of the review to submit 
information to the record. Therefore, we are extending the time period 
for issuing the preliminary results of this review by 35 days until 
November 30, 2011.
    This notice is published in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(2).

    Dated: October 12, 2011.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
