Determinations: Furfuryl Alcohol From the People's Republic of China, 
the Republic of South Africa and Thailand

AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, 
Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 25, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Brinkmann (202-482-5288) or Cindy 
Robinson (202-482-4087), Office of Antidumping Investigations, Import

POSTPONEMENT OF PRELIMINARY DETERMINATIONS: The Department of Commerce 
(``the Department'') is postponing the preliminary determinations in 
the antidumping duty investigations of furfuryl alcohol from the 
People's Republic of China (PRC), the Republic of South Africa (South 
Africa) and Thailand. The deadline for issuing these preliminary 
determinations is now no later than December 9, 1994.
    On June 20, 1994, the Department initiated antidumping duty 
investigations of furfuryl alcohol from the PRC, South Africa and 
Thailand (59 FR 32953, June 27, 1994). The notice stated that we would 
issue our preliminary determinations on November 7, 1994.
    On July 15, 1994, the U.S. International Trade Commission 
determined that there was a likelihood that a U.S. domestic industry 
was materially injured, or threatened with material injury, by reason 
of imports of furfuryl alcohol from the PRC, South Africa and Thailand.
    On October 7, 1994, pursuant to 19 CFR 353.15(c), QO Chemicals, 
Inc., the petitioner, requested that the Department postpone until 
December 9, 1994, the issuance of its preliminary determination in each 
of the above investigations in order to ensure that adequate time is 
available for the Department and petitioner to fully address the issues 
in these investigations. Petitioner's request for postponement was 
timely, and the Department finds no compelling reasons to deny the 
request. Therefore, we are postponing the deadline for issuing these 
determinations until no later than December 9, 1994.
    This notice is published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 353.15(d).

    Dated: October 18, 1994.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
