(202)482-4031. 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. [FR Doc. 2011-27855 Filed 10-26-11; 8:45 am]
