SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 4, 2001, the Commission determined that the domestic 
interested party group response to its notice of institution (66 FR 
29829, June 1, 2001) was adequate and 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 October 1, 
2001, and made available to persons on the Administrative Protective 
Order service list for this review. A public version will be issued 
thereafter, pursuant to Sec. 207.62(d)(4) of the Commission's rules.

Written Submissions.

    As provided in Sec. 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 October 4, 2001, 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 October 4, 2001. However, 
should 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 Secs. 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 the response submitted by Bethlehem 
Likens Plate to be individually adequate. Comments from other 
interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CAR 207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with Secs. 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.

    Authority: This review is being conducted under authority of 
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published 
pursuant to Sec. 207.62 of the Commission's rules.
