SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.--On December 5, 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 78994, December 23,
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 these reviews 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 the
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 the
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 these 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 the reviews. A party granted
access to BPI following publication of the Commission's notice of
institution of the 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 July 28, 2023, and a public version
will be issued thereafter, pursuant to section 207.64 of the
Commission's rules.
Hearing.--The Commission will hold an in-person hearing in
connection with these reviews beginning at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday,
August 17, 2023. Requests to appear at the hearing should be filed in
writing with the Secretary to the Commission on or before Wednesday,
August 9, 2023. Any requests to appear
[[Page 15457]]
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 reviews, 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 3 p.m. the business day prior to the hearing. Further
information about participation in 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>.
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, if deemed necessary, to be held at 9:30 a.m. on Friday,
August 11, 2023. Parties shall file and serve written testimony and
presentation slides in connection with their presentation at the
hearing by no later than 4 p.m. on August 16, 2023. 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 the 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 August 8, 2023. Parties shall also file written
testimony in connection with their presentation at the hearing, 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 August 29, 2023. In addition, any person who has not entered
an appearance as a party to the reviews may submit a written statement
of information pertinent to the subject of the reviews on or before
August 29, 2023. On September 21, 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 September 25, 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 the 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 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: March 7, 2023.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
