SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background.--On February 6, 2012, the Commission determined that 
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of 
institution (76 FR 67473, November 1, 2011) of the subject five-year 
reviews was adequate and that the respondent interested party group 
response was inadequate. The Commission did not find any other 
circumstances that would warrant conducting full reviews.\1\ 
Accordingly, the Commission determined that it would conduct expedited 
reviews 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 these reviews will be placed in the nonpublic record 
on March 12, 2012 and made available to persons on the Administrative 
Protective Order service list for these reviews. 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 reviews 
and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of 
institution,\2\ and any party other than an interested party to the 
reviews may file written comments with the Secretary on what 
determination the Commission should reach in the reviews. Comments are 
due on or before March 15, 2012 and may not contain new factual 
information. Any person that is neither a party to the five-year 
reviews nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement 
(which shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the 
reviews by March 15, 2012. However, should the Department of Commerce 
extend the time limit for its completion of the final results of its 
reviews, 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 sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission's rules. Please 
be aware that the Commission's rules with respect to electronic filing 
have been amended. The amendments took effect on November 7, 2011. See 
76 FR 61937 (Oct. 6, 2011) and the newly revised Commission's Handbook 
on E-Filing, available on the Commission's Web site at http://edis.usitc.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Core 
Pipe Products, Inc.; Ezeflow USA Inc.-Flowline Division; Shaw Alloy 
Piping Products, Inc.; Taylor Forge Stainless, Inc.; and by Filmag 
Italia, srl to be individually adequate. Comments from other 
interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Also, in accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the 
Commission's 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 APO service list as appropriate), and a certificate of 
service must accompany the document (if you are not a party to the 
review you do not need to serve your response). 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. 1675(c)(5)(B).

    Authority:  These reviews are being conducted under authority of 
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published 
pursuant to section 207.62 of the Commission's rules.

    By order of the Commission.
    Issued: February 17, 2012.
James R. Holbein,
Secretary to the Commission.
