SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.--On March 5, 2012, the Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution
(76 FR 74807, December 1, 2011) of the subject five-year reviews was
adequate and that the respondent interested party group response was
inadequate. The Commission did not find any other circumstances that
would warrant conducting full reviews.\1\ Accordingly, the Commission
determined that it would conduct expedited reviews pursuant to section
751(c)(3) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ A record of the Commissioners' votes, the Commission's
statement on adequacy, and any individual Commissioner's statements
will be available from the Office of the Secretary and at the
Commission's Web site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Staff report.--A staff report containing information concerning the
subject matter of the reviews will be placed in the nonpublic record on
May 8, 2012, and made available to persons on the Administrative
Protective Order service list for these reviews. A public version will
be issued thereafter, pursuant to section 207.62(d)(4) of the
Commission's rules.
Written submissions.--As provided in section 207.62(d) of the
Commission's rules, interested parties that are parties to the reviews
and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of
institution,\2\ and any party other than an interested party to the
reviews may file written comments with the Secretary on what
determinations the Commission should reach in the reviews. Comments are
due on or before May 11, 2012 and may not contain new factual
information. Any person that is neither a party to the five-year
reviews nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement
(which shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the
reviews by May 11, 2012. However, should the Department of Commerce
extend the time limit for its completion of the final results of its
reviews, the deadline for comments (which may not contain new factual
information) on Commerce's final results is three business days after
the issuance of Commerce's results. If comments contain business
proprietary information (BPI), they must conform with the requirements
of sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission's rules. Please
be aware that the Commission's rules with respect to electronic filing
have been amended. The amendments took effect on November 7, 2011. See
76 FR 61937 (Oct. 6, 2011) and the newly revised Commission's Handbook
on E-Filing, available on the Commission's Web site at http://edis.usitc.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by domestic
producers Carpenter Technology Corporation, Crucible Industries,
LLC, Electralloy a G.O. Carlson Inc. Co., Universal Stainless &
Alloy Products, Inc., and Valbruna Slater Stainless, Inc. to be
individually adequate. Comments from other interested parties will
not be accepted (see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the 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.
Determination.--The Commission has determined to exercise its
authority to extend the reviews 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 22, 2012.
James R. Holbein,
Secretary to the Commission.
