SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective June 8, 2023, the Commission
established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of
its countervailing duty and antidumping duty investigations on gas
powered pressure washers from China and Vietnam (88 FR 40865, June 22,
2023), following preliminary determinations by the U.S. Department of
Commerce (``Commerce'') that imports of gas powered pressure washers
from China were being subsidized by the government of China (88 FR
36531, June 5, 2023) and that imports of gas powered pressure washers
from Vietnam are being sold in the United States at less than fair
value (88 FR 39221, June 15, 2023). Subsequently, on August 3, 2023,
Commerce issued a preliminary affirmative antidumping duty
determination with respect to gas powered pressure washers from China
(88 FR 51279). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of the
Commission's investigations and of a public hearing held in connection
therewith was given by posting copies of the notice in the Office of
the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and
by publishing the notice in the Federal Register on June 22, 2023 (88
FR 40865). All persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to
participate.
Commerce issued a final affirmative antidumping duty determination
with respect to gas powered pressure washers from Vietnam (88 FR 59503,
August 29, 2023). The Commission subsequently issued its final
determination that an industry in the United States was materially
injured by reason of imports of gas powered pressure washers from
Vietnam provided for in subheadings 8424.30.90 and 8424.90.90 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') that have
been found by Commerce to be sold in the United States at less than
fair value (88 FR 71885, October 18, 2023).
Commerce has issued a final affirmative antidumping duty
determination (88 FR 88365, December 21, 2023) and a final affirmative
countervailing duty determination (88 FR 88578, December 22, 2023) with
respect to gas powered pressure washers from China. Accordingly, the
Commission currently is issuing a supplemental schedule for its
countervailing duty and antidumping duty investigations on imports of
gas powered pressure washers from China.
This supplemental schedule is as follows: the deadline for filing
supplemental party comments on Commerce's final countervailing duty and
antidumping duty determinations is 5:15 p.m. on January 5, 2024.
Supplemental party comments may address only Commerce's final
countervailing duty and antidumping duty determinations regarding
imports of gas powered pressure washers from China. These supplemental
final comments may not contain new factual information and may not
exceed five (5) pages in length. The supplemental staff report in the
final phase of the current investigations will be placed in the
nonpublic record on January 17, 2024, and a public version will be
issued thereafter.
For further information concerning this proceeding see the
Commission's notice cited above and the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part
207, subparts A and C (19 CFR part 207).
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
[[Page 91]]
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 investigations must be
served on all other parties to the investigations (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.
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.
Authority: This proceeding is being conducted under authority of
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published pursuant
to section 207.21 of the Commission's rules.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: December 27, 2023.
