Shipper Review

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


DATES: Effective Date: February 1, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jun Jack Zhao, AD/CVD Operations, 
Office 6, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., 
Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482-1396.

Background

    On November 7, 2011, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
issued the preliminary rescission of the new shipper review under the 
antidumping duty order on chlorinated isocyanurates from the People's 
Republic of China for Heze Huayi Chemical Co. Ltd. (Heze Huayi) 
covering the period June 1, 2010, through December 31, 2010. See 
Chlorinated Isocyanurates from the People's Republic of China: 
Preliminary Rescission of Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review, 76 FR 
70705 (November 15, 2011). The final results of review are currently 
due on February 6, 2012.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Because the calculated final results signature date falls on 
Sunday, February 5, 2012, the signature date for the final results 
is moved to the next business day, February 6, 2012. See Notice of 
Clarification: Application of ``Next Business Day'' Rule for 
Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 
1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Statutory Time Limits

    Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) provide that the Department will issue 
the final results of a new shipper review within 90 days after the date 
on which the preliminary results were issued. However, if the 
Department concludes that a new shipper review is extraordinarily 
complicated, the Department may extend the 90-day period to 150 days. 
See 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

    The Department determines that this new shipper review is 
extraordinarily complicated because of the additional unreported sales 
to the United States during the period of review by Heze Huayi. On 
December 16, 2011, Heze Huayi submitted an extensive case brief 
regarding these sales and the Department's preliminary decision to 
rescind the review. On December 22, 2011, Clearon Corp. and Occidental 
Chemical Corporation, Petitioners in the original investigation, 
submitted an extensive rebuttal brief. The issues raised in the case 
and rebuttal briefs regarding these unreported sales and how they 
should be evaluated in the context of a new shipper review are complex 
and multifaceted. Therefore, in accordance with section 
751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2), the Department 
finds that this case is extraordinarily complicated and is extending 
the time limit for the final results from 90 days to 150 days. 
Accordingly, the final results will now be due no later than April 5, 
2012.
    We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) and 777(i)(I) of the Act.

    Dated: January 25, 2012.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
