SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.--On September 6, 2013, the Commission determined that
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of
institution (78 FR 33108, June 3, 2013) 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 statement by an individual
Commissioner, 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
October 2, 2013, 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 October 7, 2013, 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 October 7, 2013. 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. The
Commission's Handbook on E-Filing, available on the Commission's Web
site at http://edis.usitc.gov, elaborates upon the Commission's rules
with respect to electronic filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Allied
Tube and Conduit, EXLTUBE, JMC Steel Group, Maruichi American
Corporation, TMK-IPSCO, United States Steel Corporation, and Western
Tube & Conduit Corporation 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.
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: September 23, 2013.
Lisa R. Barton,
Acting Secretary to the Commission.
