SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background. On July 6, 2012, the Commission determined that the 
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution 
(77 FR 19711, April 2, 2012) of the subject five-year review was 
adequate and that the respondent interested party group response was 
inadequate. The Commission did not find any other circumstances that 
would warrant conducting a full review.\1\ Accordingly, the Commission 
determined that it would conduct an expedited review 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 review will be placed in the nonpublic record on 
July 27, 2012, and made available to persons on the Administrative 
Protective Order service list for this review. 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 review 
and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of 
institution,\2\ and any party other than an interested party to the 
review may file written comments with the Secretary on what 
determination the Commission should reach in the review. Comments are 
due on or before August 1, 2012 and may not contain new factual 
information. Any person that is neither a party to the five-year review 
nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement (which 
shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the review 
by August 1, 2012. However, should the Department of Commerce extend 
the time limit for its completion of the final results of its review, 
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 response submitted by United 
States Steel Corp. 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 Commission's 
rules, each document filed by a party to the review must be served on 
all other parties to the review (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.
