See Notice of Initiation of Countervailing Duty Investigation: 
Carbazole Violet Pigment 23 from India, 68 FR 70778 (December 19, 
2003). On January 16, 2004, petitioners made a timely request pursuant 
to 19 CFR 351.205(e) for a postponement of the preliminary 
determination in accordance with section 703(c)(1) of the Act. 
Petitioners requested a postponement in order to ensure sufficient time 
to receive and analyze submitted responses, and to allow time for the 
Department to determine the extent to which particular subsidies are 
being used.
    For reasons identified by the petitioners, we see no compelling 
reason not to postpone the preliminary determination. Therefore, we are 
postponing and extending the time limit for the preliminary 
determination in the countervailing duty investigation of CVP-23 from 
India until no later than April 19, 2004. This extension is made 
pursuant to section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act.
    This notice of postponement is published pursuant to section 
703(c)(2) of the Act.

    Dated: January 22, 2004.
James J. Jochum,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
