ACTION: Notice.

determine whether revocation of the antidumping and countervailing duty

antidumping duty orders on welded stainless steel pressure pipe from 
Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam would be likely to lead to continuation 
or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.

DATES: September 6, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On September 6, 2019, the Commission determined that 
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of 
institution (84 FR 25567, June 3, 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)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 these reviews will be placed in the nonpublic record 
on October 11, 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 these 
reviews and that have provided individually adequate responses to the 
notice of institution,\2\ and any party other than an interested party 
to these reviews may file written comments with the Secretary on what 
determination the Commission should reach in the reviews. Comments are 
due on or before October 18, 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 October 18, 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). The 
Commission's Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the

[[Page 55172]]

Commission's website at https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf, elaborates upon the Commission's 
procedures with respect to filings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Bristol 
Metals, LLC, Felker Brothers Corp., Webco Industries Inc., and 
Primus Pipe & Tube 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 these reviews must be served on all other 
parties to these 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: October 8, 2019.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
