SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 17, 2024, the U.S.
Department of Commerce (Commerce)
initiated less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigations on imports of ferrosilicon
from Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia.1
On July 22, 2024, Commerce tolled
certain deadlines in these
administrative proceedings by seven
days.2 The deadline for the preliminary
determinations is now September 11,
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)(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.
Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia
On July 31, 2024, the petitioners 3
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
determinations in the LTFV

Malaysia, and the Russian Federation: Initiation of
Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigations, 89 FR 31137
(April 24, 2024).

Proceedings,’’ dated July 22, 2024.

investigations.4 The petitioners stated
that they requested the postponement
because Commerce either has not yet
received, or has only just recently
received, full initial questionnaire
responses from the mandatory
respondents in all three investigations
and additional time is necessary to
allow Commerce and petitioners ‘‘to
fully develop the record, and to review
and comment upon the original and any
supplemental responses.’’ 5
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 31, 2024.6 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).
Dated: August 12, 2024.
