SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background. On May 7, 2004, the Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution
(69 FR 4979, February 2, 2004) 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 Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\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 Web site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Staff report. A staff report containing information concerning the
subject matter of the review will be placed in the nonpublic record on
June 3, and made available to persons on the Administrative Protective
Order service list for this review. 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 June 8, 2004 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 June 8, 2004. However, should the Department of 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
rules do not authorize filing of submissions with the Secretary by
facsimile or electronic means, except to the extent permitted by
section 201.8 of the Commission's rules, as amended, 67 FR 68036
(November 8, 2002).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Archer
Daniels Midland Co.; Roquette America, Inc.; and SPI Polyols, Inc.
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 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.
Authority: This review is 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: May 14, 2004.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
