General information concerning the Commission may also be obtained by accessing its internet server (http://www.usitc.gov). The public record for this review may be viewed on the Commission's electronic docket (EDIS) at http://edis.usitc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--On Friday, March 6, 2015, the Commission determined that the domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution (79 FR 71121, December 1, 2014) of the subject five-year reviews was adequate and that the respondent interested party group response was inadequate. The Commission did not find any other circumstances that would warrant conducting full reviews.\1\ Accordingly, [[Page 17496]] the Commission determined that it would conduct expedited reviews 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 reviews will be placed in the nonpublic record on Wednesday, April 2, 2015, and made available to persons on the Administrative Protective Order service list for these reviews. 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 reviews and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of institution,\2\ and any party other than an interested party to the reviews may file written comments with the Secretary on what determination the Commission should reach in these reviews. Comments are due on or before Monday, April 7, 2015 and may not contain new factual information. Any person that is neither a party to the five- year reviews nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement (which shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the review by Monday, April 7, 2015. However, should the Department of Commerce extend the time limit for its completion of the final results of its reviews, 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. Please be aware that the Commission's rules with respect to filing have changed. The most recent amendments took effect on July 25, 2014. See 79 FR 35920 (June 25, 2014), and the revised Commission Handbook on E-filing, available from the Commission's Web site at http://edis.usitc.gov. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \2\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by United States Steel Corporation; Maverick Tube Corporation; Boomerang Tube LLC; Tejas Tubular Products; Energex Tube, a division of JMC Steel Group; Vallourec Star L.P.; Welded Tube USA Inc.; EVRAZ Rocky Mountain Steel; and TMK IPSCO 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 reviews must be served on all other parties to the reviews (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 these reviews are 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: 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.
