Postponement of Preliminary Determination

    On October 6, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
published the initiation of the antidumping duty investigations of 
certain lined paper products from India, Indonesia and the People's 
Republic of China. See Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigations: 
Certain Lined Paper

[[Page 7016]]

Products from India, Indonesia and the People's Republic of China, 70 
FR 58374 (October 6, 2005). The notice of initiation stated that we 
would make our preliminary determinations for these antidumping duty 
investigations no later than 140 days after the date of issuance of the 
initiation. Currently, the preliminary determinations are due February 
16, 2006.
    On January 23, 2006, the Association of American School Paper 
Suppliers, and its individual members (``Petitioner''), made a timely 
request pursuant to 19 CFR Sec. 351.205(e) for a 30-day postponement of 
the preliminary determinations. Petitioner requested postponement of 
the preliminary determinations because it will provide the Department 
additional time to review submitted questionnaire responses and 
questionnaire responses not yet received by the Department.
    Under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 
(``the Act''), if Petitioner makes a timely request for a postponement 
of the preliminary determination, the Department may postpone the 
preliminary determination under subsection (b)(1) until no later than 
the 190th day after the initiation of the investigation.
    Therefore, for reasons identified by petitioner, we are postponing 
the preliminary determinations under section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act by 
30 days to March 18, 2006. Because March 18, 2006, falls on a Saturday, 
the preliminary determinations will be due by March 20, 2006, the next 
business day. Pursuant to 735(a) of the Act, the deadline for the final 
determinations will continue to be 75 days after the date of the 
preliminary determinations, or if extended, up to 135 days after the 
date of publication of the preliminary determinations in the Federal 
Register.
    This notice is issued and published pursuant to sections 733(c)(2) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(i).

    Dated: February 3, 2006.
David M. Spooner,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
