Background
On September 1, 2010, the Department published in the Federal
Register the notice of ``Opportunity to Request Administrative Review''
of this order for the period September 1, 2009, through August 31,
2010. See Antidumping or Countervailing Duty Order, Finding, or
Suspended Investigation; Opportunity To Request Administrative Review,
75 FR 53635, (September 1, 2010). On September 30, 2010, we received
timely requests for an administrative review from the Association of
American School Paper Suppliers (petitioner),\1\ in accordance with 19
CFR 351.213(b)(1). On October 28, 2010, we published the notice of
initiation. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Administrative Reviews, 75 FR 66349 (October 28, 2010). The preliminary
results of review are currently due June 2, 2011.

Extension of Time Limit of Preliminary Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the
Act), requires that the Department make a preliminary determination
within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order
for which a review is requested. Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act
further states that, if it is not practicable to complete the review
within the time period specified, the administering authority may
extend the 245-day period to issue its preliminary results to up to 365
days.
We determine that completion of the preliminary results of this
review within the 245-day period is not practicable for the following
reasons. This review requires the Department to gather and analyze a
significant amount of information pertaining to each of the company's
sales practices, manufacturing costs, and corporate relationships.
Furthermore, on May 17, 2011, the Department initiated a sales-below-
cost of production investigation of Riddhi Enterprises (Riddhi),\2\ a
pro se respondent, pursuant to an allegation submitted by petitioner on
May 2, 2011. As a result, the Department will require additional time
to receive and analyze Riddhi's Section D questionnaire response. Given
the complexity of these issues, and in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, we are extending the time period for issuing
the preliminary results of this review by 120 days. Accordingly, the
deadline for the completion of the preliminary results is now September
30, 2011. Unless extended, the final results continue to be due 120
days after the publication of the preliminary results, pursuant to
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The other respondent in this administrative review is
Navneet Publications (India) Ltd.

This notice is published pursuant to sections 751(a)(3)(A) and
777(i)(1) of the Act.
