(February 10, 2006). On February 21,
2006, the Association of American
School Paper Suppliers, and its
individual members (‘‘Petitioner’’),
made timely requests pursuant to 19

determinations with respect to the
antidumping duty investigations
covering certain lined paper products
(‘‘CLPP’’) from the People’s Republic of

will provide the Department additional
time to review submitted questionnaire
responses which Petitioner claims
contain substantial deficiencies.
Under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’), if Petitioner makes a timely
request for a postponement of the
preliminary determination, the
Department may postpone the
preliminary determination under

investigation.
Therefore, for reasons identified by
Petitioner, we are postponing the
preliminary determinations with respect

of CLPP from the PRC and India under
section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act by an
additional 20 days to April 7, 2006.
Pursuant to section 735(a) of the Act,

will continue to be 75 days after the
date of the preliminary determinations,
or if extended, up to 135 days after the
date of publication of the preliminary
determinations in the Federal Register.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to sections 733(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

AGENCY:
Postponement of Final Determination
The Department of Commerce (the
Department) is postponing the final
determination in the antidumping duty
investigation of metal calendar slides
from Japan.
On July 26, 2005, the Department
published the initiation of the
antidumping duty investigation on
imports of metal calendar slides from
Japan. See Initiation of Antidumping
Duty Investigation: Metal Calendar
Slides from Japan, 70 FR 43122 (July 26,
2005). On February 1, 2006, the
Department published its affirmative
preliminary determination in this
investigation. See Notice of Preliminary
Determination of Sales at Less Than
Fair Value: Metal Calendar Slides from
Japan, 71 FR 5244 (February 1, 2006).
This notice stated that the Department
would issue its final determination no
later than 75 days after the date on
which the Department issued its
preliminary determination.
Section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended, (the Act) and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii) provide that a final
determination may be postponed until
no later than 135 days after the date of
the publication of the preliminary
determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a
request for such postponement is made
by exporters who account for a
significant proportion of exports of the
subject merchandise. Additionally, the
Department’s regulations, at 19 CFR
351.210(e)(2)(ii), require that requests by
a respondent for postponement of a final
determination be accompanied by a
request for an extension of the
provisional measures from a four-month
period to not more than six months.
On February 13, 2006, in accordance
with section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and
PO 00000

known exporter, Nishiyama Kinzoku
Co. Ltd. (Nishiyama), requested that the
Department: (1) Postpone the final
determination; and (2) extend the
provisional measures period from four
months to a period not longer than six
months. Accordingly, pursuant to
section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because: (1) The
preliminary determination is
affirmative; (2) the requesting exporter
accounts for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise in
this investigation; and (3) no compelling
reasons for denial exist, we are
postponing the final determination until
no later than 135 days after the
publication of the preliminary
determination in the Federal Register
(i.e., until no later than June 16, 2006).
Suspension of liquidation will be
extended accordingly.
This notice of postponement is
published pursuant to section 735(a) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(g).
