SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AGENCY: Background On July 20, 2020, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) initiated a countervailing duty (CVD) investigation of imports of standard steel welded wire mesh from Mexico.1 Currently, the preliminary determination is due no later than September 23, 2020. Postponement of Preliminary Determination Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), requires Commerce to issue the preliminary determination in a CVD 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: 1 See Standard Steel Welded Wire Mesh from Mexico: Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigation, 85 FR 45181 (July 27, 2020) (Initiation Notice). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:06 Sep 08, 2020 Jkt 250001 (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.2 On August 28, 2020, the petitioners 3 submitted a timely request that Commerce postpone the preliminary CVD determination.4 The petitioners requested postponement of the preliminary determination because they stated that additional time is necessary for Commerce to conduct its investigation and permit interested parties sufficient time to develop the record in this investigation.5 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 November 27, 2020. 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). Dated: September 2, 2020. Jeffrey I.
