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

bedroom furniture from China would be likely to lead to continuation or 
recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.

DATES: April 8, 2022

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--On April 8, 2022, the 
Commission determined that the domestic interested party group response 
to its notice of institution (87 FR 121, January 3, 2022) 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 July 28, 2022. 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 
determinations the Commission should reach in the review. Comments are 
due on or before August 4, 2022 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 August 4, 2022. 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. 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Commission has found the joint response to its notice of 
institution filed on behalf of the American Furniture Manufacturers 
Committee for Legal Trade (``Committee''), a U.S. trade association 
comprised of eight domestic producers of wooden bedroom furniture, 
and Vaughan-Bassett Furniture Company, Inc. (``Vaughan-Bassett''), a 
domestic producer of wooden bedroom furniture, to be individually

Works, LLC, d/b/a Gat Creek; Tom Seely Furniture; Carolina Furniture 
Works, Inc.; Century Furniture, LLC; Johnston-Tombigbee Furniture 
Manufacturing Company; L. & J.G. Stickley, Inc.; Perdues, Inc.; T.
