SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On October 11, 2007, the Department of Commerce (``the 
Department'') initiated the countervailing duty investigation of raw 
flexible magnets from the People's Republic of China (PRC). See Notice 
of Initiation of Antidumping Duty Investigations: Raw Flexible Magnets 
from the People's Republic of China and Taiwan, 72 FR 59076 (October 
18, 2007). On November 8, 2007, Magnum Magnetics Corporation, 
petitioner, requested a 65-day extension of the preliminary 
determination, pursuant to section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended, (the Act) and 19 CFR 351.205(e). Currently, the 
preliminary determination is due no later than December 15, 2007.
    Postponement of Due Date for Preliminary Determination
    Under section 703(c)(1)(A) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(e), the 
Department may extend the period for reaching a preliminary 
determination in a countervailing duty investigation until not later 
than the 130\th\ day after the date on which the administering 
authority initiates an investigation if the administrating authority 
receives such a request from petitioner 25 days or more before the 
scheduled date of the preliminary determination. Petitioner's request 
for postponement of the preliminary determination was received on 
November 8, 2007 and, therefore, is timely pursuant to 19 CFR 
351.205(e). Accordingly, we are postponing the due date for this 
preliminary determination by 65 days to no later than Tuesday, February 
19, 2008.
    This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 703(c)(2) 
of the Act.

    Dated: November 26, 2007.
David M. Spooner,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
