SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On August 21, 2013, the Commission established a schedule for the conduct of the subject investigation (78 FR 52969, August 27, 2013). The Commission did not operate between October 1, 2013, and October 16, 2013, because of a lack of appropriations. On October 21, 2013, the Commission issued a notice stating that statutory deadlines would be tolled by this disruption in its operations. The Commission, therefore, is revising its schedule to conform to the revised statutory deadlines.

The Commission's new schedule for the review is as follows: requests to appear at the hearing must be filed with the Secretary to the Commission not later than January 7, 2014; the prehearing conference will be held at the U.S. International Trade Commission Building at 9:30 a.m. on January 8, 2014; the prehearing staff report will be placed in the nonpublic record on December 19, 2013; the deadline for filing prehearing briefs is January 7, 2014; the hearing will be held at the U.S. International Trade Commission Building at 9:30 a.m. on January 16, 2014; the deadline for filing posthearing briefs is January 23, 2014; the Commission will make its final release of information on February 13, 2014; and final party comments are due on February 18, 2014.
