Description
The Department of Commerce is postponing the preliminary determination in its countervailing duty investigation of perfluoroalkoxy alkane (PFA) imports from India. The petitioner, The Chemours Company, requested postponement because respondent and Government of India questionnaire deadlines left insufficient time to consider rebuttal information and arguments, and Commerce needed time to analyze responses and issue supplemental questionnaires. Commerce moved the preliminary determination deadline to no later than January 4, 2027. The deadline for the final determination remains 75 days after the preliminary determination.
