ITA Finds Investigation Requires Additional Time to Review Questionnaires, Etc.
The ITA explains that the petitioner, Sunkist Growers, Inc., requested postponement of the preliminary determinations in order to allow the ITA additional time in which to review the complex questionnaire responses that have been submitted in the investigations and to analyze additional responses due to be filed shortly.
The ITA states that for the reasons identified by the petitioner and because there are no compelling reasons to deny the request, the ITA is postponing the deadline for the preliminary determinations by 50 days to April 19, 2007.
The ITA adds that the deadline for the final AD duty determinations will continue to be 75 days after the date of the preliminary determinations, unless extended.
