SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

    Background.--On October 21, 2013, the Commission determined that 
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of 
institution (78 FR 39321, July 1, 2013) of the subject five-year review 
was adequate and that 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.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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.
    \2\ Commissioner F. Scott Kieff did not participate in this 
vote.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Staff report.--A staff report containing information concerning the 
subject matter of the review will be placed in the nonpublic record on 
December 2, 2013, and made available to persons on the Administrative 
Protective Order service list for this review. 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 review 
and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of 
institution,\3\ 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 December 9, 2013 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 December 9, 2013. However, should the Department of 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 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 (October 6, 2011) and the newly revised Commission's 
Handbook on E-Filing, available on the Commission's Web site at http://edis.usitc.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Anvil, 
LP and Ward Manufacturing, LLC to be individually adequate. Comments 
from other interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CFR 
207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with sections 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.
    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) because this review is ``extraordinarily 
complicated'' pursuant to 19. U.S.C. 1675 (c)(5)(C)(ii).

    Authority: This review is 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.

     Issued: November 7, 2013.

    By order of the Commission.

Supervisory Hearings and Information Officer.
