SUMMARY:  The Commission hereby gives notice of the scheduling of an 
expedited review pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the Act'') to

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

DATES:  January 6, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On January 6, 2023, the Commission determined that the 
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution 
(87 FR 59824, October 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)).\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\ Chairman David S. Johanson determined that, in light of the 
time that has transpired since the Commission last conducted a full 
review of this order, conducting a full review was warranted.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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).
    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 April 12, 2023. A public version 
will be issued thereafter, pursuant to Sec.  207.62(d)(4) of the 
Commission's rules.
    Written submissions.--As provided in Sec.  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,\3\ 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 April 20, 2023, 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 April 20, 2023. 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 Sec. Sec.  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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Commission has found the responses submitted on behalf 
of the Fresh Garlic Producers Association (``FGPA'') and its 
individual members Christopher Ranch L.L.C., The Garlic Company, and 
Valley Garlic, Inc., to be individually adequate. Comments from 
other interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CFR 
207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with Sec. Sec.  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.
    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 published pursuant to 
Sec.  207.62 of the Commission's rules.

    By the order of the Commission.
