SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--On May 9, 2022, the Commission
determined that responses to its notice of institution of the subject
five-year reviews were such that full reviews should proceed (87 FR
29878, May 17, 2022); accordingly, full reviews are being scheduled
pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1675(c)(5)). A record of the Commissioners' votes, the Commission's
statement on adequacy, and any individual Commissioner's statements are
available from the Office of the Secretary and at the Commission's
website. Participation in the review and public service list.--Persons,
including industrial users of the subject merchandise and, if the
merchandise is sold at the retail level, representative consumer
organizations, wishing to participate in these reviews as parties must
file an entry of appearance with the Secretary to the Commission, as
provided in section 201.11 of the Commission's rules, by 45 days after
publication of this notice. A party that filed a notice of appearance
following publication of the Commission's notice of institution of
these reviews need not file an additional notice of appearance. The
Secretary will maintain a public service list containing the names and
addresses of all persons, or their representatives, who are parties to
these reviews.
For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and
rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201),
and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207). Please note
the Secretary's Office will accept only electronic filings during this
time. Filings must be made through the Commission's Electronic Document
Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>.) No in-person paper-
based filings or paper copies of any electronic filings will be
accepted until further notice.
Limited disclosure of business proprietary information (BPI) under
an administrative protective order (APO) and BPI service list.--
Pursuant to section 207.7(a) of the Commission's rules, the Secretary
will make BPI gathered in these reviews available to authorized
applicants under the APO issued in the reviews, provided that the
application is made by 45 days after publication of this notice.
Authorized applicants must represent interested parties, as defined by
19 U.S.C. 1677(9), who are parties to these reviews. A party granted
access to BPI following publication of the Commission's notice of
institution of these reviews need not reapply for such access. A
separate service list will be maintained by the Secretary for those
parties authorized to receive BPI under the APO.
Staff report.--The prehearing staff report in these reviews will be
placed in the nonpublic record on November 18, 2022, and a public
version will be issued thereafter, pursuant to section 207.64 of the
Commission's rules.
Hearing.-- The Commission will hold a hearing in connection with
the reviews beginning at 9:30 a.m. on December 6, 2022. Information
about the place and form of the hearing, including about how to
participate in and/or view the hearing, will be posted on the
Commission's website at <a href="https://www.usitc.gov/calendarpad/calendar.html">https://www.usitc.gov/calendarpad/calendar.html</a>. Interested parties should check the Commission's website
periodically for updates. Requests to appear at the hearing should be
filed in writing with the Secretary to the Commission on or before
November 29, 2022. Any requests to appear as a witness via
videoconference must be included with your request to appear. Requests
to appear via videoconference must include a statement explaining why
the witness cannot appear in person; the Chairman, or other person
designated to conduct the investigation, may in their discretion for
good cause shown, grant such a request. Requests to appear as remote
witness due to illness or a positive COVID-19 test result may be
submitted by 3pm the business day prior to the hearing.
A nonparty who has testimony that may aid the Commission's
deliberations may request permission to present a short statement at
the hearing. All parties and nonparties desiring to appear at the
hearing and make oral presentations should attend a prehearing
conference to be held at 9:30 a.m. on December 2, 2022. Oral testimony
and written materials to be submitted at the public hearing are
governed by sections 201.6(b)(2), 201.13(f), and 207.24 of the
Commission's rules. Parties must submit any request to present a
portion of their hearing testimony in camera no later than 7 business
days prior to the date of the hearing.
Written submissions.--Each party to these reviews may submit a
prehearing brief to the Commission. Prehearing briefs must conform with
the provisions of section 207.65 of the Commission's rules; the
deadline for filing is November 29, 2022. Parties may also file written
testimony in connection with their presentation at the hearing, as
provided in section 207.24 of the Commission's rules, and posthearing
briefs, which must conform with the provisions of section 207.67 of the
Commission's rules. The deadline for filing posthearing briefs is
December 13, 2022. In addition, any person who has not entered an
appearance as a party to these reviews may submit a written statement
of information pertinent to the subject of these reviews on or before
December 13, 2022. On January 13, 2023, the Commission will make
available to parties all information on which they have not had an
opportunity to comment. Parties may submit final comments on this
information on or before January 18, 2023, but such final comments must
not contain new factual information and must otherwise comply with
section 207.68 of the Commission's rules. All written submissions must
conform with the provisions of section 201.8 of the Commission's rules;
any submissions that contain BPI must also conform with the
requirements of sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission's
rules. The Commission's Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the
Commission's website at <a href="https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf">https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf</a>, elaborates upon the Commission's
procedures with respect to filings.
Additional written submissions to the Commission, including
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, shall
not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such
submissions, or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request
by a Commissioner or Commission staff.
In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission's
rules, each document filed by a party to these reviews must be served
on all other parties to these reviews (as identified by either the
public or BPI service list), and a certificate of service must be
timely filed. The Secretary will not accept a document for filing
without a certificate of service.
The Commission has determined that these reviews are
extraordinarily complicated and therefore has determined to exercise
its authority to
[[Page 47465]]
extend the review period by up to 90 days pursuant to 19
U.S.C.1675(c)(5)(B).
Authority: These reviews are being conducted under authority of
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published pursuant
to section 207.62 of the Commission's rules.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: July 29, 2022.
Katherine Hiner,
Acting Secretary to the Commission.
