INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigations Nos. 753-TA-1 through 31]
Countervailing Duty Orders
Determinations
Pursuant to section 753(b)(4) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1675b(b)(4)) (the Act), the Commission hereby determines that
industries in the United States are not likely to be materially injured
by reason of imports of the subject merchandise if the countervailing
duty orders listed in the attachment were to be revoked.
Background
Section 753(a) of the Act provides that, in the case of a
countervailing duty order issued under section 303 of the Act with
respect to which the requirement of an affirmative determination of
material injury under section 303(a)(2) was not applicable at the time
the order was issued, interested parties may request the Commission to
initiate an investigation to determine whether an industry in the
United States is likely to be materially injured by reason of imports
of the subject merchandise if the order is revoked. Further, section
753(a)(3) requires that such requests must be filed with the Commission
within 6 months of the date on which the country from which the subject
merchandise originates became a signatory to the Agreement on Subsidies
and Countervailing Measures (the Subsidies Agreement), as referred to
in section 101(d)(12) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act.
On May 26, 1995, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) published in
the Federal Register notice of opportunity to request injury
investigation(s) under section 753 of the Act (60 F.R. 27963, May 26,
1995). In that notice, Commerce stated that, for those countries
becoming signatories to the Subsidies Agreement on January 1, 1995,
requests for injury investigations must be filed with the Commission no
later than June 30, 1995.
The Commission did not receive requests for investigation under
section 753(a) with regard to the orders listed in the attachment.
Section 753(b)(4) of the Act provides that, if a request for an injury
investigation is not made within 6 months of the time the country of
origin of the subject merchandise became a signatory to the Subsidies
Agreement, the Commission shall notify the administering authority that
it has made a negative determination with regard to the question of the
likelihood of material injury by reason of imports of the subject
merchandise if the order is revoked. Accordingly, pursuant to section
753(b)(4) of the Act, the Commission hereby notifies Commerce of its
negative injury determinations with regard to imports subject to those
orders.
