3See Petitioner’s Letter, ‘‘Request to Postpone 

Preliminary CVD Determination,’’ dated September 

12, 2024. 

4 Id. at 2. 

5Postponing the preliminary determination to 

130 days after initiation would place the deadline 

on Saturday, December 14, 2024. Commerce’s 

practice dictates that where a deadline falls on a 

weekend or federal holiday, the appropriate 

deadline is the next business day. See Notice of 

Clarification: Application of ‘‘Next Business Day’’ 

Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines 

Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 

FR 24533 (May 10, 2005). 

Commerce postpone the preliminary 

CVD determination.3 The petitioner 

stated that it requests postponement 

because Commerce has not yet received 

questionnaire responses and requires 

more time to gather all necessary 

information.4

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.205(e), the petitioner has stated the 

reasons for requesting a postponement 

of the preliminary determination, and 

Commerce finds no compelling reason 

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 no later than 130 days 

after the date on which this 

investigation was initiated, i.e., 

December 16, 2024.5 Pursuant to section 

705(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.210(b)(1), the deadline for the final 

determination of this investigation will 

continue to be 75 days after the date of 

the preliminary determination. 

This notice is issued and published 

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

and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf 

of Mexico, South Atlantic, and 

Caribbean Fishery Management 

Councils, in conjunction with NOAA 

Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf 

States Marine Fisheries Commissions 

have implemented the Southeast Data, 

Assessment and Review (SEDAR) 

process, a multi-step method for 

determining the status of fish stocks in 

the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a multistep process including: (1) Data 

Workshop, (2) a series of assessment 

webinars, and (3) A Review Workshop. 

The product of the Data Workshop is a 

report that compiles and evaluates 

potential datasets and recommends 

which datasets are appropriate for 

assessment analyses. The assessment 

webinars produce a report that describes 

the fisheries, evaluates the status of the 

stock, estimates biological benchmarks, 

projects future population conditions, 

and recommends research and 

monitoring needs. The product of the 

Review Workshop is an Assessment 

Summary documenting panel opinions 

regarding the strengths and weaknesses 

of the stock assessment and input data. 

Participants for SEDAR Workshops are 

appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South 

Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery 

Management Councils and NOAA 

Fisheries Southeast Regional Office, 

HMS Management Division, and 

Southeast Fisheries Science Center.

database managers; stock assessment 

scientists, biologists, and researchers; 

constituency representatives including 

fishermen, environmentalists, and 

NGO’s; International experts; and staff 

of Councils, Commissions, and state and

Participants will review the 

assessment modeling work to date and 

provide recommendations to the 

analytic team.
