SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background.--On June 3, 1999, the Commission determined that the 
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution 
(64 FR 10012, March 1, 1999) 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

subject matter of the review will be placed in the nonpublic record on 
July 1, 1999, 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 July 7, 1999, 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 July 7, 1999. 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 rules do not authorize filing of submissions with the 
Secretary by facsimile or electronic means.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Commission has found responses submitted by Rhodia, 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 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.
    Determination.--The Commission has determined to exercise its 
authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days pursuant to 19 
U.S.C. Sec. 1675(c)(5)(B).

    Authority: This review is being conducted under authority of 
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published
