In the

Additionally, we received no requests for a public hearing from interested parties.

is softwood lumber, siding, flooring, and certain other coniferous wood (softwood lumber products). For a complete description of the scope of the
Order, see

Final Results of Changed Circumstances Review
For the reasons stated in the
Preliminary Results,
and because we received no comments from interested parties to the contrary, Commerce continues to find that Interfor Corporation, EACOM Timber Corporation, Chaleur Forest Products Inc., and Chaleur Forest Products LP are cross-owned entities.[]
Because our findings remain unchanged from the
Preliminary Results,
no decision memorandum accompanies this notice. We are adopting the
