SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 15, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) 
initiated less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigations of imports of 
dioctyl terephthalate from Malaysia, Poland, Taiwan, and 
T[uuml]rkiye.\1\ Currently, the preliminary determinations are due no 
later than September 3, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Dioctyl Terephthalate from Malaysia, Poland, Taiwan, and 
the Republic of T[uuml]rkiye: Initiation of Less-Than-Fair-Value 
Investigations, 89 FR 29286 (April 22, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Postponement of Preliminary Determinations

    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 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.

Malaysia, Poland, Taiwan, and T[uuml]rkiye

    On July 16, 2024, the petitioner \2\ submitted a timely request 
that Commerce postpone the preliminary determinations in the LTFV 
investigations.\3\ The petitioner stated that it requested postponement 
to provide Commerce with the time ``to develop a full record in these 
investigations.'' \4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The petitioner is Eastman Chemical Company.
    \3\ See Petitioner's Letter, ``Request to Postpone Preliminary 
Antidumping Duty Determinations,'' dated July 16, 2024.
    \4\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the reason 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 
determinations by 50 days (i.e., 190 days after the date on which these 
investigations were initiated). As a result, Commerce will issue its 
preliminary determinations no later than October 22, 2024. In 
accordance with section 735(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), 
the deadline for the final determinations of these investigations will 
continue to be 75 days after the date of the preliminary 
determinations, unless postponed at a later date.
    This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
