SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background: In November 2012, the Commission determined by a vote 
of four to two that an industry in the United States was not materially 
injured or threatened with material injury by reason of imports of CWP 
from India, Oman, the UAE, and Vietnam that were sold in the United 
States at less than fair value and that were subsidized by the 
Governments of India, Oman, and the UAE. Petitioners and domestic 
producers contested the Commission's determinations before the U.S. 
Court of International Trade (``CIT''). The CIT remanded certain issues 
to the Commission and affirmed all other aspects of the Commission's 
determinations. JMC Steel Group v. United States, Slip. Op. 14-120 (Ct. 
Int'l Trade Oct. 15, 2014).
    Participation in the proceeding: Only those persons who were 
interested parties that participated in the investigations (i.e., 
persons listed on the Commission Secretary's service list) and also 
parties to the appeal may participate in the remand proceedings. Such 
persons need not make any additional filings with the Commission to 
participate in the remand proceedings, unless they are adding new 
individuals to the list of persons entitled to receive business 
proprietary information (``BPI'') under administrative protective 
order. BPI referred to during the remand proceedings will be governed, 
as appropriate, by the administrative protective order issued in the 
investigations. The Secretary will maintain a service list containing 
the names and addresses of all persons or their representatives who are 
parties to the remand proceedings, and the

Secretary will maintain a separate list of those authorized to receive 
BPI under the administrative protective order during the remand 
proceedings.
    Written Submissions: The Commission is not reopening the record and 
will not accept the submission of new factual information for the 
record. The Commission will permit the parties to file comments 
concerning how the Commission could best comply with the Court's remand 
instructions.
    The comments must be based solely on the information in the 
Commission's record. The Commission will reject submissions containing 
additional factual information or arguments pertaining to issues other 
than those on which the Court has remanded this matter. The deadline 
for filing comments is December 24, 2014. Comments shall be limited to 
no more than twenty (20) double-spaced and single-sided pages of 
textual material.
    Parties are advised to consult with the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 
201), and part 207, subpart A (19 CFR part 207) for provisions of 
general applicability concerning written submissions to the Commission. 
All written submissions, including those that contain BPI, must conform 
to 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 Handbook on E-Filing, available on the 
Commission's Web site at http://edis.usitc.gov.
    Additional written submissions to the Commission, including 
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, shall 
not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such 
submissions or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request 
by a Commissioner or Commission staff.
    In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission's 
rules, each document filed by a party to the investigation must be 
served on all other parties to the investigation (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.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: December 3, 2014.
