SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective November 6, 2017, the Commission
established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of
its investigations on fine denier polyester staple fiber (``fine denier
PSF'') from China, India, Korea, and Taiwan,\1\ following preliminary
determinations by the U.S. Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') that
imports of fine denier PSF were subsidized by the governments of China
and India. To date, Commerce has issued final affirmative
countervailing duty determinations with respect to fine denier PSF from
China and India \2\ and most recently final affirmative antidumping
duty determinations with respect to China, India, Korea, and Taiwan.\3\
The Commission, therefore, is issuing a supplemental schedule for its
antidumping duty investigations on imports of fine denier PSF from
China, India, Korea, and Taiwan.
