Background
The Department published the notice
of initiation of this investigation on
February 16, 2016.1 On June 24, 2016,
the companion countervailing duty
(‘‘CVD’’) investigation of geogrids from
the PRC published a notice aligning the
final CVD determination with the final
determination of the antidumping duty
(‘‘AD’’) investigation in accordance with
section 705(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(4).2 On August 22, 2016,

the Department published the
preliminary results of the AD
investigation of geogrids from the PRC.3
In that notice, the Department partially
extended the final determination,
stating that the final determination
would be issued no later than 120 days
after the date of publication of the
preliminary determination, pursuant to
section 735(a)(2) of the Act. The final
results are currently due no later than
December 20, 2016.
Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides
that a final determination may be
postponed until not 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, or in
the event of a negative preliminary
determination, a request for such
postponement is made by Petitioners. 19
CFR 351.210(e)(2) requires that requests
by respondents for postponement of a
final antidumping determination be
accompanied by a request for extension
of provisional measures from a fourmonth period to a period not more than
six months in duration.
On July 11, 2016, pursuant to 19 CFR
351.210(b) and (e), Taian Modern Plastic
Co., Ltd. requested that, contingent
upon an affirmative preliminary
determination of sales at LTFV, the
Department postpone the final
determination and that provisional
measures be extended to a period not to
exceed six months.4
Because the final determination is not
fully extended, and in accordance with
section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because (1) our
preliminary determination is
affirmative; (2) the requesting exporters
account for a significant proportion of
exports of the subject merchandise; and
(3) no compelling reasons for denial
exist, we are fully postponing the final
determination and extending the

provisional measures. Accordingly, we
will make our final determination no
later than 135 days after the date of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional
Measures
Section 735(a)(2) of the Act provides that a final determination
may be postponed until not 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, or in the event of a negative
preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is made by
Petitioners. 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2) requires that requests by respondents
for postponement of a final antidumping determination be accompanied by
a request for extension of provisional measures from a four-month
period to a period not more than six months in duration.
On July 11, 2016, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(b) and (e), Taian
Modern Plastic Co., Ltd. requested that, contingent upon an affirmative
preliminary determination of sales at LTFV, the Department postpone the
final determination and that provisional measures be extended to a
period not to exceed six months.\4\

\4\ See Letter to the Secretary of Commerce from Taian Modern
Plastic Co., Ltd., ``Certain Biaxial Integral Geogrid Products from
the People's Republic of China: Request to Extend Final
Determination'' (July 11, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the final determination is not fully extended, and in
accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(2)(ii), because (1) our preliminary determination is
affirmative; (2) the requesting exporters account for a significant
proportion of exports of the subject merchandise; and (3) no compelling
reasons for denial exist, we are fully postponing the final
determination and extending the provisional measures. Accordingly, we
will make our final determination no later than 135 days after the date
of publication of the preliminary determination, pursuant to section
735(a)(2) of the Act.\5\ Therefore, the final results are now due no
later than January 4, 2017.
