mechanism to replace domestic judicial review of final determinations 
in antidumping and countervailing duty cases involving imports from a 
NAFTA country with review by independent binational panels. When a 
Request for Panel Review is filed, a panel is established to act in 
place of national courts to review expeditiously the final 
determination to determine whether it conforms with the antidumping or 
countervailing duty law of the country that made the determination.
    Under Article 1904 of the Agreement, which came into force on 
January 1, 1994, the Government of the United States, the Government of 
Canada and the Government of Mexico established Rules of Procedure for 
Article 1904 Binational Panel Reviews (``Rules''). These Rules were 
published in the Federal Register on February 23, 1994 (59 FR 8686). 
The panel review in this matter was requested and terminated pursuant 
to these Rules.

     Dated: February 21, 2007.

United States Secretary, NAFTA Secretariat.
