SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:. 

Background 

On April 16, 2018, the Department of 

Commerce (Commerce) initiated the 

countervailing duty (CVD) investigation 

of certain steel wheels (steel wheels) 

from the People’s Republic of China 

(China).1 Currently, the preliminary 

determination is due no later than June 

20, 2018. 

Postponement of the Preliminary 

Determination 

Section 703(b)(1) of the Tariff Act of 

1930, as amended (the Act), requires 

Commerce to issue the preliminary 

determination in a CVD investigation 

within 65 days after the date on which 

Commerce initiated the investigation. 

However, section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act 

permits Commerce to postpone the 

preliminary determination until no later 

than 130 days after the date on which 

Commerce initiated the investigation if 

a petitioner makes a timely request for 

a postponement. Under 19 CFR 

351.205(e), a petitioner must submit a 

request for postponement 25 days or 

more before the scheduled date of the 

preliminary determination and must 

state the reason for the request. 

Commerce will grant the request unless 

it finds compelling reasons to deny the 

request.2

On May 15, 2018, Accuride 

Corporation and Maxion Wheels Akron 

LLC (collectively, the petitioners) 

submitted a timely request pursuant to 

section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act and 19 

CFR 351.205(b)(2) and (e) to postpone 

the preliminary determination. The 

petitioners stated that due to the 

number and nature of subsidy programs 

under investigation, the purpose of its 

request was to provide Commerce with 

adequate time to examine the amount of 

subsidies received by producers and 

exporters of subject merchandise in 

China.3

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioners have stated 

the reasons for postponement of the 

preliminary determination, and the 

record does not present any compelling 

reasons to deny the request. Therefore, 

in accordance with section 703(c)(1)(A) 

of the Act, Commerce is postponing the 

deadline for the preliminary 

determination to August 24, 2018. 

Pursuant to section 705(a)(l) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(1), the deadline 

for the final determination will continue 

to be 75 days after the date of the 

preliminary determination, unless 

postponed at a later date. 

This notice is issued and published 

pursuant to section 703(c)(2) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(l). 

Dated: May 31, 2018.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping 

and Countervailing Operations, performing 

the non-exclusive functions and duties of the 

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
