    Background: The American Manufacturing Competitiveness Act of 2016 
(the Act), Public Law 114-159, May 20, 2016, 19 U.S.C. 1332 note, 
established a new process for the submission and consideration of 
requests for temporary duty suspensions and reductions. Section 3(b)(1) 
of the Act requires that the Commission initiate the process by 
publishing a notice requesting members of the public who can 
demonstrate that they are likely beneficiaries of duty suspensions or 
reductions to submit petitions and Commission disclosure forms to the 
Commission. The Commission published this notice in the Federal 
Register on October 14, 2016 (81 FR 71114). The notice required that 
petitions be submitted no later than the close of business on December 
12, 2016.
    Section 3(b)(3)(A) of the Act requires that the Commission, no 
later than 30 days after the expiration of the period for filing 
petitions, publish on its Web site the petitions received that contain 
the information required by the Act; section 3(b)(3)(B) of the Act 
requires that the Commission, at the same time, publish a notice in the 
Federal Register requesting members of the public to submit comments to 
the Commission on the petitions published on the Commission's Web site. 
The Commission published the petitions received on its Web site 
effective January 11, 2017, and published a notice in the Federal 
Register on January 11, 2017 (82 FR 3357) requesting members of the 
public to submit comments on those petitions no later than the close of 
business on February 24, 2017.
    Section 3(b)(3)(B)(ii) of the Act requires that the Commission 
publish notice in the Federal Register directing members of the public 
to a publicly available Commission Web site to view the comments 
received. This notice complies with that requirement. Members of the 
public may view those comments on the Commission's Web site at https://mtbps.usitc.gov.
    The Commission is now in the process of preparing the reports it is 
required to submit, under sections 3(b)(3)(C) and (E) of the Act, to 
the House Committee on Ways and Means and the Senate Committee on 
Finance (Committees) on the petitions for duty suspensions and 
reductions submitted. The Commission will submit its preliminary report 
to the Committees in June 2017 and its final report in August 2017. In 
preparing its reports the Commission will consider the petitions and 
comments submitted, the report that the U.S. Department of Commerce 
(Commerce) submits under section 3(c) of the Act (in consultation with 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other relevant Federal 
agencies), and any other information it considers appropriate.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: March 21, 2017.
Lisa R. Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
