OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES TRADE REPRESENTATIVE

[Docket No. 301-121]


Determination of Action To Suspend GSP Benefits Under Section 
301(b); Further Proposed Action and Publication of Preliminary Product 
List; and Request for Public Comment: Intellectual Property Laws and 
Practices of the Government of Ukraine

AGENCY: Office of the United States Trade Representative.

ACTION: Notice of determinations and action; notice of proposed action; 
request for written comments; invitation to participate in public 
hearing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The United States Trade Representative (Trade Representative), 
pursuant to sections 304(a)(1)(A) and 301(b) of the Trade Act of 1974, 
as amended (the Trade Act), has determined that certain acts, policies, 
and practices of Ukraine with respect to the protection of intellectual 
property rights are unreasonable and burden or restrict United States 
commerce and are thus actionable under section 301(b). Pursuant to 
sections 304(a)(1)(B), 301(b) and 301(c) of the Trade Act, the Trade 
Representative has determined that appropriate action to obtain the 
elimination of such acts, policies, and practices includes the 
suspension of duty-free treatment accorded to all products of Ukraine 
under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program. Moreover, 
because further action may include the imposition of prohibitive duties 
on certain products of Ukraine, in this notice USTR is also publishing 
a preliminary list of Ukrainian products under consideration for the 
imposition of prohibitive duties. USTR invites interested persons to 
submit written comments and to participate in a public hearing 
concerning the possible imposition of prohibitive duties on the 
products on the enclosed preliminary list.

EFFECTIVE DATES: The Trade Representative's determinations as to 
actionability under section 301(b) and the suspension of GSP benefits 
were made on August 2, 2001. The suspension of Ukraine's GSP benefits 
will be effective with respect to goods entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after August 24, 2001. With respect to 
the preliminary list of Ukrainian products under consideration for the 
imposition of prohibitive duties: requests to appear at the public 
hearing are due by August 24, 2001; written testimony is due by August 
31, 2001; a public hearing is scheduled for September 11, 2001; and 
written comments and rebuttal comments are due by September 17, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Requests, comments, and testimony should be submitted to 
Sybia Harrison, Staff Assistant to the Section 301 Committee, ATTN: 
Docket 301-121, Office of the United States Trade Representative, 1724 
F Street, NW., Room 217, Washington, DC 20508. The public hearing is 
scheduled to be held in at the Office of the United States Trade 
Representative, 1724 F Street, NW., Rooms 1 and 2, Washington, DC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a notice published on April 6, 2001 (66 
FR 18346), USTR announced the initiation of a section 302 investigation 
regarding the Government of Ukraine's intellectual property protection 
laws and practices, including the Government of Ukraine's failure to 
use existing law enforcement authority to stop the ongoing unauthorized 
production of optical media products and to enact an optical media 
licensing regime that would preclude the piracy of such products. See 
66 FR 18346 (April 6, 2001). The April 6, 2001 notice proposed to 
determine that these acts, policies and practices are actionable under 
section 301(b) and that appropriate action may include the suspension 
of duty-free treatment accorded under the GSP program to some or all 
products of Ukraine. The notice also stated that, as a further step, 
the Trade Representative might decide to impose increased duties or 
other import restrictions on Ukrainian goods. Finally, the April 6, 
2001 notice stated that prior to imposing increased duties or import 
restrictions on Ukrainian goods, USTR would publish a notice requesting 
comments on a specific list of Ukrainian products.

[[Page 42247]]

    The Section 301 Committee conducted a public hearing on April 27, 
2001, and received and reviewed written comments on the issues in the 
investigation. As of this time, the Government of Ukraine has not 
stopped the unauthorized production of optical media products and has 
not enacted a licensing regime to prevent optical media piracy.

Determinations

    Matters actionable under section 301(b) include acts, policies, or 
practices of a foreign government that are ``unreasonable'' and burden 
or restrict U.S. commerce. Under section 301(d)(3)(B)(i)(II), 
``unreasonable'' practices include any act, policy or practice which 
denies fair and equitable provision of adequate and effective 
protection of intellectual property rights.
    The United States has consulted repeatedly with the Government of 
Ukraine regarding the matters under investigation. The Government of 
Ukraine has made very little progress in addressing two key issues: (1) 
the use of existing law enforcement tools to stop the current piracy, 
and (2) the introduction of an optical media licensing regime (which 
has become the international norm) to prevent a subsequent resurgence 
of pirate activity. Accordingly, on the basis of the investigation 
initiated under section 302 of the Trade Act, the comments received, 
and the consultations, the Trade Representative has determined pursuant 
to sections 301(b) and 304(a)(1)(A) of the Trade Act that the acts, 
policies and practices of Ukraine with respect to the protection of 
intellectual policy rights are unreasonable and burden or restrict U.S. 
commerce, and are thus actionable under section 301(b).
    Because the determination of the Trade Representative under section 
304(a)(1)(A) of the Trade Act is affirmative, the Trade Representative 
must determine the appropriate and feasible action to take under 
section 301(b) and (c). In a case in which the act, policy, or practice 
under investigation also fails to meet the eligibility criteria for 
receiving duty-free treatment under the GSP program, section 
301(c)(1)(C) of the Trade Act provides that the Trade Representative 
may withdraw, limit or suspend such duty-free treatment. One of the GSP 
program's eligibility criteria is the extent to which a foreign country 
provides adequate and effective protection of intellectual property 
rights.
    Pursuant to sections 304(a)(1)(B), 301(b), and 301(c)(1)(C) of the 
Trade Act, the Trade Representative has determined that appropriate and 
feasible action includes the suspension of duty-free treatment accorded 
to the products of Ukraine under the GSP program. Accordingly, the 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) is modified as 
follows: (1) General note 4(a) is modified by deleting ``Ukraine'' from 
the list of independent countries; (2) general note 4(d) is modified by 
deleting ``2306.30.00 Ukraine'' and by deleting ``Ukraine'' set out 
opposite subheading 2804.29.00; and (3) the Rates of Duty 1-Special 
subcolumn for HTS subheading 2306.30.00 is modified by deleting the 
``A*'' and inserting an ``A''. The foregoing modifications to the HTS 
are effective with respect to articles entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after August 24, 2001.
    Also, in this notice USTR is proposing that further action under 
section 301--in addition to the suspension of GSP benefits--if 
appropriate should include the imposition of prohibitive duties on a 
final list of Ukrainian products. The final list of products would be 
drawn from the attached preliminary list.

Written Comments and Public Hearing

    The Section 301 Committee invites interested persons to submit 
written comments and to participate in a public hearing on the possible 
imposition of prohibitive duties on the products of Ukraine identified 
in the preliminary product list in the Annex to this notice. The 
comments sought by the Section 301 Committee with respect to particular 
products include (i) whether imposing prohibitive duties on a 
particular product would be practicable or effective in terms of 
obtaining an elimination of the acts, policies, and practices of the 
Government of Ukraine that are the subject of the investigation; and 
(ii) whether imposing prohibitive duties on a particular product would 
cause disproportionate economic harm to U.S. interests, including 
small- or medium-size businesses.
    In the annexed products list, the items with respect to which 
comments are requested are products of Ukraine classified in the 
indicated subheadings of the HTS. The product descriptions in the annex 
are for information purposes only; the descriptions are not intended to 
delimit in any way the scope of products that are under consideration 
for the imposition of increased duties. Instead, the scope of the 
proposed action under section 301 is governed by the HTS nomenclature 
for the subheadings listed in the annex. Issues regarding the 
classification of particular products would be decided by the U.S. 
Customs Service under its usual rules and procedures for product 
classification.
    Written comments are due by September 17, 2001. A public hearing 
addressed to these same issues is scheduled for September 11, 2001, in 
Rooms 1 and 2, First Floor, Office of the United States Trade 
Representative, 1724 F Street, NW., Washington, DC. Interested persons 
wishing to testify orally at the hearing must provide a written request 
by August 24, 2001 to Sybia Harrison, Staff Assistant to the Section 
301 Committee, ATTN: Docket 301-121, Office of the United States Trade 
Representative, 1724 F Street, NW., Room 217, Washington, DC 20508. 
Requests to testify must include the following information: (1) Name, 
address, telephone number, fax number, and firm or affiliation of the 
person wishing to testify; and (2) a brief summary of the comments to 
be presented. After the Chairman of the Section 301 Committee considers 
the request to present oral testimony, Ms. Harrison will notify the 
applicant of the time of his or her testimony. In addition, persons 
presenting oral testimony must submit their complete written testimony 
by August 31, 2001. In order to allow each interested party an 
opportunity to contest the information provided by other parties at the 
hearing, USTR will accept written rebuttal comments, which must be 
filed by September 17, 2001. Rebuttal comments should be limited to 
demonstrating errors of fact or analysis not pointed out in the hearing 
and should be as concise as possible. All written comments must state 
clearly the position taken, describe with particularity the supporting 
rationale, be in English, and be provided in twenty copies to: Sybia 
Harrison, Staff Assistant to the Section 301 Committee, ATTN: Docket 
301-121, Office of the United States Trade Representative, 1724 F 
Street, NW., Room 217, Washington, DC 20508. In addition, all written 
comments should list on the first page the particular HTS subheadings 
which are addressed in the comments.
    Comments will be placed in a file (Docket 301-121) open to public 
inspection pursuant to 15 CFR 2006.13, except confidential business 
information exempt from public inspection in accordance with 15 CFR 
2006.15. Confidential business information submitted in accordance with 
15 CFR 2006.15 must be clearly marked ``BUSINESS CONFIDENTIAL'' in a

must be accompanied by a non-confidential summary of the confidential 
information. The non-confidential summary shall be placed in the file 
that is open to public inspection. An appointment to review the docket 
may be made by calling Brenda Webb at (202) 395-6186. The USTR Reading 
Room is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 12 noon and 1 p.m. to 4
