SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 24, 2022, the TPSC sought public 
comments to assist USTR in the preparation of its annual report to 
Congress on Russia's implementation of its obligations as a Member of 
the WTO. See 87 FR 52102 (Aug 24, 2022). The notice included a 
September 21, 2022 deadline for the submission of written comments and 
requests to testify at a virtual public hearing that was scheduled to 
take place on October 4, 2022. In response to the request for comments, 
USTR received four submissions, but did not receive any requests to 
participate in a virtual public hearing. Therefore, USTR is cancelling 
the October 4, 2022 virtual public hearing.
