Hot-Rolled Steel Products From China, India, Indonesia, Taiwan, 
Thailand, and Ukraine; Scheduling of Expedited Five-Year Reviews

AGENCY: United States International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission hereby gives notice of the scheduling of 
expedited reviews pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the Act'') to 
determine whether revocation of the countervailing duty orders on hot-
rolled steel products from India, Indonesia, and Thailand and 
antidumping duty orders on hot-rolled steel products from China, India, 
Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Ukraine would be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably 
foreseeable time.

DATES: May 7, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On May 7, 2019, the Commission determined that the 
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution 
(84 FR 11, January 2, 2019) 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 Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).\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 website.
    \2\ Commissioner Meredith M. Broadbent did not participate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and 
rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), 
and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).
    Staff report.--A staff report containing information concerning the 
subject matter of the reviews will be

[[Page 31100]]

placed in the nonpublic record on July 2, 2019, 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,\3\ 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 July 11, 2019 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 July 11, 2019. However, should the Department of Commerce 
(``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. The Commission's rules with respect to filing were 
revised effective July 25, 2014. See 79 FR 35920 (June 25, 2014), and 
the revised Commission Handbook on E-filing, available from the 
Commission's website at https://edis.usitc.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Commission has found the responses submitted jointly by 
ArcelorMittal USA LLC; AK Steel Corporation; California Steel 
Industries; Nucor Corporation; SSAB Enterprises, LLC; Steel Dynamics 
Inc.; and United States Steel Corporation 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 reviews must be served on all other 
parties to the reviews (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 these reviews are 
extraordinarily complicated and therefore 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: June 25, 2019.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
