SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On December 2, 2014, the Department of Commerce (``Department'') 
initiated antidumping duty investigations on melamine from the People's 
Republic of China (``PRC'') and Trinidad and Tobago.\1\ Section 
733(b)(1)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the Act''), and 
19 CFR 351.205(b)(1) state that the Department will make a preliminary 
determination no later than 140 days after the date of the initiation. 
The current deadline for the preliminary determinations of these 
investigations is no later than April 21, 2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Melamine from the People's Republic of China and 
Trinidad and Tobago: Initiation of Less-Than-Fair-Value 
Investigations, 79 FR 73037 (December 9, 2014).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Postponement of Preliminary Determination

    On February 25, 2015, Cornerstone Chemical Company 
(``Petitioner''), made timely requests, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.205(e), 
for postponement of the preliminary determinations, in order to 
facilitate the Department's analysis of respondents' questionnaire 
responses and interested parties' surrogate value data submissions, to 
resolve other outstanding issues, and to issue any necessary 
supplemental questionnaires. Because there are no compelling reasons to 
deny the requests, in accordance with section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, 
the Department is postponing the deadline for the preliminary 
determinations by 50 days.
    For the reasons stated above, the Department, in accordance with 
section 733(c)(1)(A) of the Act, is postponing the deadline for the 
preliminary determinations to no later than 190 days after the date on 
which the Department initiated these investigations. Therefore, the new 
deadline for the preliminary determinations is June 10, 2015. In 
accordance with section 735(a)(1) of the Act, the deadline for the 
final determinations of these investigations will continue to be 75 
days after the date of the preliminary determinations, unless postponed 
at a later date.
    This notice is issued and published pursuant to section 733(c)(2) 
of the Act and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).

    Dated: March 4, 2015.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance.
