provides specific time limits based on 

the type of factual information being

Extensions of Time Limits 

Parties may request an extension of 

time limits before the expiration of a 

time limit established under 19 CFR 

351.301, or as otherwise specified by 

Commerce. In general, an extension 

request will be considered untimely if it 

is filed after the expiration of the time 

limit established under 19 CFR 351.301, 

or as otherwise specified by 

Commerce.38 For submissions that are 

due from multiple parties 

simultaneously, an extension request 

will be considered untimely if it is filed 

after 10:00 a.m. ET on the due date. 

Under certain circumstances, Commerce 

may elect to specify a different time 

limit by which extension requests will 

be considered untimely for submissions 

which are due from multiple parties 

simultaneously. In such a case, we will 

inform parties in a letter or 

memorandum of the deadline (including 

a specified time) by which extension 

requests must be filed to be considered 

timely. An extension request must be 

made in a separate, standalone 

submission; under limited 

circumstances we will grant untimely 

filed requests for the extension of time 

limits. Parties should review 

Commerce’s regulations concerning the 

extension of time limits and the Time 

Limits Final Rule prior to submitting 

factual information in these 

investigations.39

Appendix 

Scope of the Investigations 

The merchandise subject to these 

investigations is certain paper plates. Paper 

plates subject to these investigations may be 

cut from rolls, sheets, or other pieces of paper 

and/or paper board. Paper plates subject to 

these investigations have a depth up to and 

including two (2.0) inches, as measured 

vertically from the base to the top of the lip, 

or the edge if the plate has no lip. Paper 

plates subject to these investigations may be 

uncolored, white, colored, or printed. Printed 

paper plates subject to these investigations 

may have any type of surface finish, and may 

be printed by any means with images, text 

and/or colors on one or both surfaces. 

Colored paper plates subject to this 

investigation may be colored by any method, 

including but not limited to printing, beaterdyeing, and dip-dyeing. Paper plates subject 

to these investigations may be produced from 

paper of any type (including, but not limited

and/or may be uncoated or coated with any 

type of coating. 

The paper plates subject to these 

investigations remain covered by the scope of 

these investigations whether imported alone, 

or in any combination of subject and nonsubject merchandise. When paper plates 

subject to these investigations are imported 

in combination with non-subject 

merchandise, only the paper plates subject to 

these investigations are subject merchandise. 

The paper plates subject to these 

investigations include paper plates matching 

the above description that have been 

finished, packaged, or otherwise processed in 

a third country by performing finishing, 

packaging, or processing that would not 

otherwise remove the merchandise from the 

scope of the investigations if performed in 

the country of manufacture of the paper 

plates. Examples of finishing, packaging, or 

other processing in a third country that 

would not otherwise remove the 

merchandise from the scope of the 

investigations if performed in the country of 

manufacture of the paper plates include, but 

are not limited to, printing, application of 

other surface treatments such as coatings, 

repackaging, embossing, and application of 

foil surface treatments. 

Excluded from the scope of these 

investigations are paper plates molded or 

pressed directly from paper pulp (including 

but not limited to unfelted pulp), which are 

currently classifiable under subheading 

4823.70.0020 of the Harmonized Tariff

the top of the lip, or edge if no lip) equal to 

or greater than 1.25 inches but less than two 

(2.0) inches, and (b) a base not exceeding five
