12446 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 45 / Monday, March 9, 2015 / Notices 

2See the petitioners’ letters to the Department 

dated February 24, 2015. 

determinations in these investigations 

are due on March 25, 2015. 

On February 24, 2015, American Cast 

Iron Pipe Company; Energex Tube, a 

division of JMC Steel Group; Northwest 

Pipe Company; Stupp Corporation, a 

division of Stupp Bros., Inc.; Tex-Tube 

Company; TMK IPSCO; and Welspun 

Tubular LLC USA, seven out of the eight 

U.S. producers on whose behalf the 

petitions in these cases were filed 

(hereafter, the petitioners) made timely 

requests, pursuant to section 

733(c)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (the Act), and 19 CFR 

351.205(e), for a 50-day postponement 

of the preliminary determinations in the 

investigations.2 The petitioners stated 

that a postponement of the preliminary 

determinations in both welded line pipe 

investigations is necessary because the 

Department has either initiated, or is 

currently considering whether to 

initiate, investigations of sales below the 

cost of production, and, thus, the 

Department will require additional time 

for analysis and data collection prior to 

the preliminary determinations. 

Under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, 

if a petitioner makes a timely request for 

an extension of the period within which 

the preliminary determination must be 

made under subsection (b)(1), then the 

Department may postpone making the 

preliminary determination under 

subsection (b)(1) until not later than the 

190th day after the date on which the 

administering authority initiated the 

investigation. Therefore, for the reasons 

stated above, and because there are no 

compelling reasons to deny the 

petitioners’ requests, the Department is 

postponing the preliminary 

determinations in these investigations 

until May 14, 2015, which is 190 days 

from the date on which the Department 

initiated these investigations. 

The deadline for the final 

determinations will continue to be 75 

days after the date of the preliminary 

determinations, unless extended. 

This notice is issued and published 

pursuant to section 733(c)(2) of the Act 

and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1). 

Dated: March 3, 2015. 

Paul Piquado, 

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and 

Compliance.
