AGENCY: United States International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission hereby gives notice of the scheduling of an 
expedited review pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the Act'') to 
determine whether revocation of the antidumping duty order on tissue 
paper from China would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence 
of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.

DATES: September 7, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--On September 7, 2021, the 
Commission determined that the domestic interested party group response 
to its notice of institution (86 FR 29289, June 1, 2021) 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 Tariff Act of 
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A record of the Commissioners' votes is available from the 
Office of the Secretary and at the Commission's website.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For further information concerning the conduct of this review 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).
    Please note the Secretary's Office will accept only electronic 
filings at this time. Filings must be made through the Commission's 
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, https://edis.usitc.gov). 
No in-person paper-based filings or paper copies of any electronic 
filings will be accepted until further notice.
    Staff report.--A staff report containing information concerning the 
subject matter of the review has been placed in the nonpublic record, 
and will be made available to persons on the Administrative Protective 
Order service list for this review on September 30, 2021. 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,\2\ 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 October 7, 2021 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 reviews 
by October 7, 2021. However, should the Department of Commerce 
(``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. The Commission's Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the 
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 response to its notice of 
institution filed by Seaman Paper Company of Massachusetts, 
Incorporated, a domestic producer of certain tissue paper products, 
to be 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 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 this review is 
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: This review is being conducted under authority of title 
VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is
