exports of the subject merchandise, or in the event of a negative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is made by the petitioner.
Section 351.210e2 of Commerces regulations requires that a request by the exporters for postponement of the final determination be accompanied by a request for extension of provisional measures from a four-month period to a period not more than six months in duration.
On January 8, 2021, pursuant to 19
CFR 351.210e, ILJIN requested that Commerce postpone the final determination and that provisional measures be extended to a period not to exceed six months.9 In accordance with section 735a2A of the Act and 19
CFR 351.210b2ii, because: 1 The preliminary determination is affirmative; 2 the requesting exporter accounts for a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise; and 3 no compelling reasons for denial exist, Commerce is postponing the final determination and extending the provisional measures from a four-month period to a period not greater than six months. Accordingly, Commerce will make its final determination no later than 135 days after the date of publication of this preliminary determination, pursuant to section 735a2 of the Act.
International Trade Commission Notification In accordance with section 733f of the Act, Commerce will notify the International Trade Commission ITC of our affirmative preliminary determination. If our final determination is affirmative, the ITC
will determine before the later of 120
days after the date of this preliminary determination or 45 days after our final determination whether these imports are materially injuring, or threaten material injury to, the U.S. industry.
Notification to Interested Parties This determination is issued and published in accordance with sections 733f and 777i1 of the Act and 19
CFR 351.205c.
