ITA is Postponing Preliminary Determination Due to Request by Petitioner
The petitioner, Vulcan Threaded Products Inc., made a request for a 50-day postponement of the preliminary determination. The petitioner requested postponement of the preliminary determination in order to allow more time to analyze and comment on the respondents' questionnaire responses.
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 determination by 50 days from the current deadline of August 12, 2008, to October 1, 2008.
The deadline for the final determination will continue to be 75 days after the date of the preliminary determination, unless extended.
