SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On September 7, 2018, the Commission established a schedule for the conduct of the full five-year reviews (83 FR 46516, September 13, 2018). Effective February 4, 2019, the Commission revised its schedule due to the lapse in appropriations and ensuing cessation of Commission operations (84 FR 2926, February 8, 2019). Pursuant to the schedule, the domestic interested party submitted the sole prehearing brief, and a request to appear at the Commission hearing scheduled for February 28, 2019. No other party has entered an appearance in these reviews. Subsequently, noting that no other party requested to appear at the hearing, counsel for the domestic interested party filed a request to cancel the hearing. Counsel indicated a willingness to submit written responses to any Commission questions in lieu of an actual hearing. Consequently, the public hearing in connection with these reviews, scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, February 28, 2019, at the U.S. International Trade Commission Building, is cancelled. Parties to these reviews should respond to any written questions posed by the Commission in their posthearing briefs, which are due to be filed on March 7, 2019.

For further information concerning these reviews see the Commission's notice cited above and the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A and C (19 CFR part 207).

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.
