Postponement of Final Determination
Section 781(f) of the Act provides
that, to the maximum extent practicable,
Commerce shall make its anticircumvention determinations within
300 days from the date of initiation of
the inquiry. We determine that it is not
practicable to make a final
determination in this anticircumvention inquiry by the current
deadline of April 13, 2020, because
Commerce will require additional time
to notify the U.S. International Trade
Commission (ITC), and to review and
analyze case and rebuttal briefs.
Therefore, we are extending the time
period for issuing the final
determination in this inquiry by 80
days, to July 2, 2020.
Notification to the ITC
Consistent with section 781(e) of the
Act, Commerce is notifying the ITC of
this affirmative preliminary
determination to include the
merchandise subject to this inquiry
within the AD order on HFC blends
from China. Pursuant to section 781(e)
of the Act, the ITC may request
consultations concerning Commerce’s
proposed inclusion of the subject
merchandise. These consultations must
be concluded within 15 days after the
date of the request. If, after
consultations, the ITC believes that a
significant injury issue is presented by
the proposed inclusion, it will have 60
days to provide written advice to
Commerce.
Notification to Interested Parties
This notice is published in
accordance with section 781(a) of the
Act and 19 CFR 351.225(g).
Dated: April 3, 2020.
Christian Marsh,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement
and Compliance.
