SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On September 4, 2018, the Commission determined that 
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of 
institution (83 FR 25490, June 1, 2018) of the subject five-year 
reviews was adequate and that the respondent interested party group 
response was inadequate in each review. The Commission did not find any 
other circumstances that would warrant conducting full reviews.\1\ 
Accordingly, the Commission determined that it would conduct expedited 
reviews 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 Johanson and Commissioner Broadbent voted to 
conduct full reviews of the orders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews 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 reviews will be placed in the nonpublic record on 
October 3, 2018, 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,\3\ 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 the reviews. Comments are 
due on or before October 9, 2018, 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 
reviews by October 9, 2018. However, should the

[[Page 48652]]

Department of Commerce (``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. The Commission's rules with respect to 
filing were revised effective July 25, 2014. See 79 FR 35920 (June 25, 
2014), and the revised Commission Handbook on E-filing, available from 
the Commission's website at https://edis.usitc.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by the 
Rebar Trade Action Coalition, the Government of Indonesia, and the 
Government of Ukraine 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.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: September 20, 2018.

Secretary to the Commission.
