Postponement of Preliminary 

Determinations 

On October 26, 2007, the Department 

of Commerce (the Department) initiated 

the antidumping duty investigations of 

polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet, 

and strip (PET Film) from Brazil, the 

People’s Republic of China, Thailand, 

and the United Arab Emirates. See 

Polyethylene Terephthalate Film, Sheet, 

and Strip (PET Film) from Brazil, the 

People’s Republic of China, Thailand, 

and the United Arab Emirates: Initiation 

of Antidumping Duty Investigations, 72 

FR 60801 (October 26, 2007). The notice 

of initiation stated that the Department 

would issue its preliminary 

determinations for these investigations 

no later than 140 days after the date of 

issuance of the initiation (i.e., March 6, 

2008) in accordance with section 

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

amended (the Act). Id. at 60806. 

On January 23, 2008, DuPont Teijin 

Films, Mitsubishi Polyester of America, 

SKC Inc. and Toray Plastics (America), 

Inc. (collectively, petitioners) made a 

timely request pursuant to section 

733(c)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 

351.205(e) for a postponement of the 

preliminary determinations with respect 

to Brazil, the People’s Republic of 

China, Thailand, and the United Arab 

Emirates. The petitioners requested 

postponement of the preliminary 

determinations with respect to these 

four countries, explaining that they 

need time to evaluate questionnaire 

responses, the submissions of which 

were extended by the Department. 

Additionally, petitioners stated that 

they intend to file sales–below-cost 

allegations with respect to Thailand and 

the United Arab Emirates, and 

anticipated that the Department will 

need time to adequately analyze these 

allegations. 

For the reasons identified by the 

petitioners and because there are no 

compelling reasons to deny the request, 

the Department is postponing the 

deadline for the preliminary 

determinations with respect to Brazil, 

the People’s Republic of China, 

Thailand, and the United Arab Emirates 

pursuant to section 733(c)(1)(A) of the 

Act by 50 days to April 25, 2008. 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 sections 733(c)(2) and 777(I) 

of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1). 

Dated: February 4, 2008.
