SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 23, 2006, the Department received a timely request from 
Terrace, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214, for a new shipper review of 
the AD order on certain softwood lumber products from Canada, which has 
a May anniversary month.\1\ Terrace was incorporated in Canada on April 
7, 2005. Terrace made its first sale shipped to the United States in 
September 2005. Terrace states that it sells 100 percent of its 
products to exporter/importer International Forest Products Corporation 
(IFP). Terrace is the first party in the chain of distribution with 
knowledge that the merchandise is destined for the United States.

States.
