Sections 702(b)(1) and 732(b)(1) of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
require 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,
sections 702(c)(4)(A) and 732(c)(4)(A) of
the Act require 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, sections 702(c)(4)(D)
and 732(c)(4)(D) of the Act provide 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.

Imposition of Antidumping and Countervailing
Duties,’’ dated November 25, 2024 (Petitions).

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 Petitions for a period not to
exceed 40 days from the filing of the
Petitions. As a result, in accordance
with sections 702(c)(1)(B) and
732(c)(1)(B) of the Act, Commerce’s
initiation determination will now be
due no later than January 6, 2025.2
International Trade Commission
Notification
Commerce will contact the U.S.
International Trade Commission (ITC)
and will make this extension notice
available to the ITC.

Export Trade Certificate of Review
Notice of issuance of an
amended Export Trade Certificate of
Review for Alaska Longline Cod
Commission (ALCC), Application No.
10–7A001.
ACTION:
Sections 702(c)(1)(A) and 732(c)(1)(A)
of the Act provide that within 20 days
of the filing of an antidumping or
countervailing 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. Sections
702(c)(1)(B) and 732(c)(1)(B) of the Act
provide 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 Petitions have
not established that the domestic
producers or workers accounting for
more than 50 percent of total production
support the Petitions, in accordance
with sections 702(c)(4)(D) and
732(c)(4)(D) of the Act, Commerce has
determined it would be appropriate in
these cases to poll the industry and
extend the time period for determining
whether to initiate the investigations in
