INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigations Nos. 337-TA-148/169]
Commission Determination Denying Two Petitions for Modification
of Exclusion Order and Request for Order Compelling Full Accounting
AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Matter of: Certain Processes for the Manufacture of
Skinless Sausage Casing and Resulting Product
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade
Commission has determined to deny two petitions for modification of the
limited exclusion order issued November 26, 1984, in the above-
captioned investigation.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Judith M. Czako, Esq., Office of the
General Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E Street,
S.W., Washington, D.C. 20436, telephone 202-205-3093.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 18, 1994, counsel for Viskase
Corporation, successor in interest to complainant in the above-
captioned investigation, filed a petition requesting, inter alia,
modification of the limited exclusion order issued at the conclusion of
the investigation. Specifically, the petition requested that the
Commission extend the term of the limited exclusion order in order to
remedy alleged violations of that order by Viscofan, S.A., respondent
in the original investigation. On February 24, 1994, counsel for
Teepak, Inc., also filed a petition requesting, inter alia,
modification of that exclusion order to extend its term. The Commission
determined to apply a revised procedure, similar to the procedure set
forth in proposed final rule 210.76, published in the Federal Register
on November 5, 1992 (57 FR 52830, 52883), to its consideration of the
two petitions. The revised procedure provided that any person might
file a response to the two petitions. Numerous requests for leave to
file submissions beyond those provided for in the revised procedure
were received by the Commission. The Commission denied those requests.
In addition, an allegation concerning disclosure of confidential
business information was made by counsel on behalf of Teepak. The
Commission, having investigated the allegation, determined that no
confidential business information was disclosed in the filings in this
proceeding.
Having considered the petitions for modification, and the responses
thereto, the Commission has determined to deny the petitions. The
Commission will shortly issue its views regarding this matter.
This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337, 19 U.S.C. 1335), and
section 211.57 of the Commission's Interim Rules of Practice and
Procedure (19 CFR 211.57).
Copies of the Commission's Order and opinion, the petitions and
responses thereto, and all other nonconfidential documents filed in
connection with this investigation are or will be available for
inspection during official business hours (8:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.) in
the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E
Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20436, telephone (202) 205-2000.
Hearing-impaired persons are advised that information on the matter can
be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD terminal on (202) 205-
1810.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: July 22, 1994.
