SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 5, 2026, Commerce initiated the LTFV investigation of
chromium trioxide from T[uuml]rkiye.\1\ The period of investigation is
July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. On May 22, 2026, Commerce
published the Preliminary Determination in this LTFV investigation.\2\

T[uuml]rkiye: Initiation of Less-Than-Fair-Value Investigations, 91
FR 234 (January 5, 2026).
\2\ See Chromium Trioxide from the Republic of T[uuml]rkiye:
Preliminary Affirmative Determination of Sales at Less than Fair
Value, 91 FR 30280 (May 22, 2026) (Preliminary Determination).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Postponement of Final Determination and Extension of Provisional
Measures
Section 735(a)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act),
and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2) provide that a final determination may be
postponed until not later than 135 days after the date of the
publication of the preliminary determination if, in the event of an
affirmative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement
is made by exporters or producers who account for a significant
proportion of exports of the subject merchandise, or in the event of a
negative preliminary determination, a request for such postponement is
made by the petitioner. Further, 19 CFR 351.210(e)(2) requires that a
request by exporters for postponement of the final determination be
accompanied by a request for extension of provisional measures from a
four-month period to a period of not more than six months, in
accordance with section 733(d) of the Act.
On May 20, 2026, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.210(e), the sole mandatory
respondent in this investigation, T[uuml]rkiye [Scedil]i[scedil]e ve
Cam Fabrikalar[inodot] A.[Scedil]. ([Scedil]i[scedil]ecam), requested
that Commerce postpone the deadline for the final determination until
no later than 135 days from the publication of the Preliminary
Determination, and that provisional measures be extended to a period
not to exceed six months.\3\ In accordance with section 735(a)(2)(A) of
the Act and 19 CFR 351.210(b)(2)(ii), because: (1) the Preliminary
Determination is affirmative; (2) the requesting exporter accounts for
a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise; and (3)
no compelling reasons for denial exist, Commerce is postponing the
final determination until no later than 135 days after the date of the
publication of the Preliminary Determination, and extending the
provisional measures from a four-month period to a period not greater
than six months. Accordingly, Commerce will issue its final
determination no later than October 5, 2026.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See [Scedil]i[scedil]ecam's letter,
``[Scedil]i[scedil]ecam's Final Determination Extension Request,''
dated May 20, 2026.
\4\ Commerce's practice dictates that, where a deadline falls on
a weekend or Federal holiday, the appropriate deadline is the next
business day. See Notice of Clarification: Application of ``Next
Business Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines
Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10,
2005).
