SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 17, 2023, the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) 
initiated a less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation of imports of 
certain non-refillable steel cylinders from India.\1\ Currently, the 
preliminary determination is due no later than October 4, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Certain Non-Refillable Steel Cylinders from India: 
Initiation of Less-Than Fair-Value Investigation, 88 FR 33571 (May 
24, 2023) (Initiation Notice).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 an 
LTFV investigation within 140 days after the date on which Commerce 
initiated the investigation. However, section 733(c)(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

[[Page 62772]]

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 September 6, 2023, the petitioner submitted a timely request 
that Commerce postpone the preliminary determination in the LTFV 
investigation, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.205(b)(2), which the 
petitioner notes allows for the extension of the preliminary 
determination at the petitioner's request.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Request to Extend the Preliminary 
Antidumping Duty Determination,'' dated September 6, 2023. The 
petitioner is Worthington Industries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the reasons stated above and because there are no compelling 
reasons to deny the request, Commerce, in accordance with section 
733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, is postponing the deadline for the preliminary 
determination by 50 days (i.e., 190 days after the date on which this 
investigation was initiated). As a result, Commerce will issue its 
preliminary determination no later than November 24, 2023.\3\ 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, 
unless postponed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Because the extended deadline for this preliminary 
determination falls on a Federal holiday (i.e., November 23, 2023), 
the deadline becomes the next business day. See Notice of 
Clarification: Application of ``Next Business Day'' Rule for 
Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 
1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
