Cut-to-length carbon steel plate from—; Romania,

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

Background

On September 8, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``the [[Page 76765]]
Department'') published the preliminary results of this administrative review of certain cuttolength carbon steel plate (``cuttolength plate'') from Romania. See Certain CuttoLength Carbon Steel Plate from Romania: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Partial Rescission, 70 FR 53333 (September 8, 2005) (``Preliminary Results''). In the Preliminary Results we stated that we would make our final determination for the antidumping duty review no later than 120 days after the date of publication of the preliminary results (i.e., January 6, 2006).

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results

The Department is extending the time limit for the final results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on cutto length plate from Romania. This review covers the period August 1, 2003, through July 31, 2004.

Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), states that if it is not practicable to complete the review within the time specified, the administering authority may extend the 120day period, following the date of publication of the preliminary results, to issue its final results by an additional 60 days. Due to the complexity of issues raised in this review segment, including the respondent's notification of unreported sales following the Department's preliminary results, and the respondent's withdrawal of its business proprietary versions of all information submitted on the record of this review, the completion of the final results within the 120day period is not practicable.

Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department is extending the time period for issuing the final results of review by an additional 31 days until no later than February 6, 2006.

Dated: December 21, 2005.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
