SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
On June 11, 2018, the Department of
Commerce (Commerce) initiated a
countervailing duty (CVD) investigation
of imports of steel propane cylinders
from the People’s Republic of China
(China).1 Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than
August 15, 2018.
Postponement of Preliminary
Determinations
Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary

determination in a countervailing duty
investigation within 65 days after the
date on which Commerce initiated the
investigation. However, section
703(c)(1) of the Act permits Commerce
to postpone the preliminary
determination until no later than 130
days after the date on which Commerce
initiated the investigation if: (A) The
petitioner 2 makes a timely request for a
postponement; or (B) Commerce
concludes that the parties concerned are
cooperating, that the investigation is
extraordinarily complicated, and that
additional time is necessary to make a
preliminary determination. Under 19
CFR 351.205(e), the petitioner must
submit a request for postponement 25
days or more before the scheduled date
of the preliminary determination and
must state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.
On July 20, 2018, the petitioners
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
CVD determination.3 The petitioners
stated that the purpose of their request
is to provide Commerce with adequate
time to analyze fully questionnaire
responses from the Government of
China and the mandatory respondents
and to determine the extent to which
the respondents received
countervailable subsidies.4 In
accordance with 19 CFR 351.205(e), the
petitioners have stated the reasons for
requesting a postponement of the
preliminary determination, and
Commerce finds no compelling reason
to deny the request. Therefore, in
accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) of
the Act, Commerce is postponing the
deadline for the preliminary
determination to no later than 130 days
after the date on which this
investigation was initiated, i.e., October
19, 2018. Pursuant to section 705(a)(1)
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the
deadline for the final determination of
this investigation will continue to be 75
days after the date of the preliminary
determination.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
2 The petitioners are Worthington Industries and
Manchester Tank & Equipment Co.

As a courtesy, we are making

following address: https://
enforcement.trade.gov/sunset/. All
submissions in these Sunset Reviews

Commerce’s regulations regarding

Any party submitting factual

Letters of Appearance and
Administrative Protective Orders
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.103(d),
Commerce will maintain and make
available a public service list for these
proceedings. Parties wishing to
participate in any of these five-year
reviews must file letters of appearance
as discussed at 19 CFR 351.103(d)). To
facilitate the timely preparation of the
public service list, it is requested that
those seeking recognition as interested
parties to a proceeding submit an entry
of appearance within 10 days of the
publication of the Notice of Initiation.
Because deadlines in Sunset Reviews
can be very short, we urge interested
parties who want access to proprietary
information under administrative
protective order (APO) to file an APO
application immediately following

this notice of initiation. Commerce’s
regulations on submission of proprietary

19 CFR 351.304–306.

Domestic interested parties, as

wishing to participate in a Sunset
Review must file complete substantive
responses not later than 30 days after

that certain information requirements
differ for respondent and domestic
parties. Also, note that Commerce’s

from the Commission’s information
requirements. Consult Commerce’s

Commerce’s conduct of Sunset Reviews.
