SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Extension of Initiation of Investigation

The Petition

    On May 30, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) 
received an antidumping duty petition on imports of large top mount 
combination refrigerator-freezers (refrigerators) from Thailand, filed 
in proper form on behalf of Electrolux Consumer Products, Inc. (the 
petitioner), a domestic producer of refrigerators.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Petition for the Imposition of 
Antidumping Duties,'' dated May 30, 2024 (Petition).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Determination of Industry Support for the Petition

    Section 732(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 
requires that a petition be filed by or on behalf of the domestic 
industry. To determine that the petition has been filed by or on behalf 
of the industry, section 732(c)(4)(A) of the Act requires that the 
domestic producers or workers who support the petition account for: (i) 
at least 25 percent of the total production of the domestic like 
product; and (ii) more than 50 percent of the production of the 
domestic like product produced by that portion of the industry 
expressing support for, or opposition to, the petition. Moreover, 
section 732(c)(4)(D) of the Act provides that, if the petition does not 
establish support of domestic producers or workers accounting for more 
than 50 percent of the total production of the domestic like product, 
Commerce shall: (i) poll the industry or rely on other information in 
order to determine if there is support for the petition, as required by 
subparagraph (A); or (ii) if there is a large number of producers, 
determine industry support using a statistically valid sampling method 
to poll the industry.

Extension of Time

    Section 732(c)(1)(A) of the Act provides that within 20 days of the 
filing of an antidumping duty petition, Commerce will determine, inter 
alia, whether the petition has been filed by or on behalf of the U.S. 
industry producing the domestic like product. Section 732(c)(1)(B) of 
the Act provides that the deadline for the initiation determination, in 
exceptional circumstances, may be extended by 20 days in any case in 
which Commerce must ``poll or otherwise determine support for the 
petition by the industry.'' Because the Petition has not established 
that the domestic producers or workers accounting for more than 50 
percent of total production support the Petition, in accordance with 
section 732(c)(4)(D) of the Act, Commerce has determined that it should 
poll the industry and extend the time period for determining whether to 
initiate the investigation in order to further examine the issue of 
industry support.
    Commerce will need additional time to gather and analyze additional 
information regarding industry support. Therefore, it is necessary to 
extend the deadline for determining the adequacy of the Petition for a 
period not to exceed 40 days from the filing of the Petition. As a 
result, in accordance with section 732(c)(1)(B) of the Act, Commerce's 
initiation determination will now be due no later than July 9, 2024.

International Trade Commission Notification

    Commerce will contact the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) 
and will make this extension notice available to the ITC.

    Dated: June 14, 2024.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty 
Operations.
