SUMMARY:  The Commission hereby gives notice of the scheduling of an 
expedited review pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the Act'') to

material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.

DATES:  September 4, 2018.

review may be viewed on the Commission's electronic docket (EDIS) at 
https://edis.usitc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background.--On September 4, 2018, the Commission determined that 
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of 
institution (83 FR 25485, June 1, 2018) 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 Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 
1675(c)(3)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For further information concerning the conduct of this review 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 review will be placed in the nonpublic record on 
September 26, 2018, 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, 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 
October 1, 2018 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 October 1, 2018. 
However, should the Department of Commerce (``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 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.
    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.
    Determination.--The Commission has determined this review is 
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: This review is being conducted under authority of title 
VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is
