SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.--In April 2021, the Commission determined that an
industry in the United States was materially by reason of imports of
SSLPP from Czechia that were sold in the United States at less than
fair value. Seamless Carbon and Alloy Steel Standard, Line, and
Pressure Pipe from Czech Republic (Czechia), Inv. No. 731-TA-1529
(Final), USITC Pub. No. 5183 (April 2021). In August 2021, the
Commission determined that an industry in the United States was
materially injured by reason of imports of SSLPP from Korea, Russia,
and Ukraine that were sold in the United States at less than fair value
and subsidized by the governments of Russia and Ukraine. Seamless
Carbon and Alloy Steel Standard, Line, and Pressure Pipe from Korea,
Russia, and Ukraine, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-654-655 and 731-TA-1530-1532
(Final), USITC Pub. No. 5222 (August 2021). Respondent, PAO TMK,
contested the Commission's determination regarding Russia before the
U.S. Court of International Trade (``CIT''). The CIT remanded the
Commission's determination for the agency to reconsider its calculation
of in-scope imports from Germany and Mexico by addressing (1) the
Customs data for Germany and Mexico in light of the Commission's
determination that only Company A imported in-scope imports from
Germany and only Company B imported in-scope imports from Mexico, and
(2) evidence proffered by TMK that claims Company C imported in-scope
imports from Germany, contrary to the Commission's decision that
Company A was the only importer of in-scope imports from Germany. PAO
TMK v. United States, Slip Op. 23-150 (Ct. Int'l Trade, Oct. 12, 2023).
Participation in the remand proceedings.--Only those persons who
were interested parties that participated in the investigations (i.e.,
persons listed on the Commission Secretary's service list) and also
parties to the appeal may participate in the remand proceedings. Such
persons need not file any additional appearances with the Commission to
participate in the remand proceedings, unless they are adding new
individuals to the list of persons entitled to receive business
proprietary information (``BPI'') under administrative protective
order. BPI referred to during the remand proceedings will be governed,
as appropriate, by the administrative protective order issued in the
investigations. The Secretary will maintain a service list containing
the names and addresses of all persons or their representatives who are
parties to the remand proceedings, and the Secretary will maintain a
separate list of those authorized to receive BPI under the
administrative protective order during the remand proceedings.
Written submissions.--The Commission is not reopening the record
and will not accept the submission of new factual information for the
record. The Commission will permit the parties to file comments
concerning how the Commission could best comply with the court's remand
instructions.
The comments must be based solely on the information in the
Commission's record. The Commission will reject submissions containing
additional factual information or arguments pertaining to issues other
than those on which the court has remanded this matter. The deadline
for filing comments is December 1, 2023. Comments must be limited to no
more than fifteen (15) double-spaced and single-sided pages of textual
material, inclusive of attachments and exhibits.
Parties are advised to consult with the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part
201), and part 207, subpart A (19 CFR part 207) for provisions of
general applicability concerning written submissions to the Commission.
All written submissions must conform to 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. Please note the Secretary's Office will accept
only electronic filings at 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. The
Commission's Handbook on E-Filing, available on the Commission's
website at <a href="http://edis.usitc.gov">http://edis.usitc.gov</a>, elaborates upon the Commission's
rules with respect to electronic filing.
Additional written submissions to the Commission, including
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, will 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 investigation must be
served on all other parties to the investigation (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.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: November 2, 2023.
