SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On March 31, 2011, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published in the Federal Register a notice of initiation of an 
administrative review of uncovered innerspring units from the People's 
Republic of China (``PRC''), covering the period February 1, 2010, 
through January 31, 2011. See Initiation of Antidumping Duty 
Administrative Reviews, Requests for Revocation in Part, and Deferral 
of Administrative Review, 76 FR 17825 (March 31, 2011). The preliminary 
results of the review for uncovered innerspring units from the PRC are 
currently due no later than October 31, 2011.

Statutory Time Limits

    In antidumping duty administrative reviews, section 751(a)(3)(A) of 
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), requires the 
Department to make a preliminary determination within 245 days after 
the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which a review is 
requested and a final determination within 120 days after the date on 
which the preliminary results are published. However, 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 determination to a maximum of 365 days after the 
last day of the anniversary month.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Review

    We determine that it is not practicable to complete the preliminary 
results of this administrative review within the original time limit 
because the Department requires additional time to evaluate the no-
shipment claim and non-responsive company issues.
    Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the preliminary results of the administrative review by 
30 days. The preliminary results will now be due no later than November 
30, 2011, the first business day following 30 days from the current 
deadline. The final results continue to be due 120 days after the 
publication of the preliminary results.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.

     Dated: October 21, 2011.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
