SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 12, 2020, the Department
of Commerce (Commerce) initiated a
less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation
of imports of difluoromethane (R–32)
from the People’s Republic of China.1
Currently, the preliminary
determination is due no later than July
1, 2020.
Postponement of Preliminary
Determination
Section 733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires
Commerce to issue the preliminary
determination in a LTFV investigation
within 140 days after the date on which
Commerce initiated the investigation.
However, section 733(c)(1)(A)(b)(1) of
the Act permits Commerce to postpone
the preliminary determination until no
later than 190 days after the date on
which Commerce initiated the
investigation if: (A) The petitioner
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 May 22, 2020, the petitioner 2
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
determination in this LTFV
investigation.3 The petitioner stated that
it requests postponement of the
preliminary determination to allow
Commerce to analyze supplemental
questionnaire responses and request
further clarification to thoroughly
investigate the issues presented in this
case.4
In accordance with 19 CFR
351.205(e), the petitioner has stated the
reasons for requesting a postponement
of the preliminary determination, and
Commerce finds no compelling reasons
to deny the request. Therefore, in
accordance with section 733(c)(1)(A) of
the Act, Commerce is postponing the
deadline for the preliminary
determination to August 20, 2020, 190
days after the date on which this
investigation was initiated. In
accordance with section 735(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 733(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
Dated: June 1, 2020.
