SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On February 5, 2024, the Commission determined that 
responses to its notice of institution of the subject five-year reviews 
were such that full reviews should proceed (89 FR 13375, February 22, 
2024); 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 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 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 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 the reviews will be 
placed in the nonpublic record on August 19, 2024, 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 the reviews beginning at 9:30 a.m. on September 5, 
2024. Requests to appear at the hearing should be filed in writing with 
the Secretary to the Commission on or before 5:15 p.m. on August 28, 
2024. 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 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 September 
4, 2024. Parties shall file and serve written testimony and 
presentation slides in connection with their presentation at the 
hearing by no later than 4:00 p.m. on September 4, 2024. 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

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 5:15 p.m. on September 13, 2024. 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 5:15 p.m. on September 13, 2024. On October 2, 
2024, 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 5:15 p.m. on October 4, 
2024, 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 the 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.
    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: April 25, 2024.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
