In particular, the EC asserts that by failing to discontinue suspension of obligations to the EC, the United States has breached its obligations under Articles I and II of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (‘‘GATT 1994’’) and Articles 3.7, 21.5, 22.8 and 23.2(a) and (c) of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (‘‘DSU’’). USTR invites written comments from the public concerning the issues raised in this dispute. DATES: Although USTR will accept any comments received during the course of the dispute settlement proceedings, comments should be submitted on or before April 1 to be assured of timely consideration by USTR. ADDRESSES: Comments should be submitted (i) electronically, to FR0519@ustr.eop.gov, with ‘‘EC— Hormones (DS320)’’ in the subject line, or (ii) by fax, to Sandy McKinzy at (202) 395–3640, with a confirmation copy sent electronically to the address above, in accordance with the requirements for submission set out below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 127(b) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (‘‘URAA’’) (19 U.S.C. 3537(b)) requires that notice and opportunity for comment be provided after the United States submits or receives a request for the establishment of a WTO dispute settlement panel. Consistent with this obligation, USTR is providing notice that the establishment of a WTO dispute settlement panel has been requested pursuant to the DSU. The EC’s request for the establishment of a panel may found at www.wto.org contained in a document designated as WT/DS320/6. Once a panel is established, such panel, which would hold its meetings in Geneva, Switzerland, would be expected to issue a report on its findings and recommendations within six to nine months after it is established. Major Issues Raised by the EC With respect to the claims of WTOinconsistency, the EC’s panel request refers to the following: • the U.S. continued suspension of obligations and imposition of import duties in excess of bound rates on imports from the EC; • the alleged U.S. ‘‘unilateral determination’’ that new EC legislation VerDate jul<14>2003 19:10 Feb 18, 2005 Jkt 205001 is in violation of obligations under the WTO Agreement; and • the alleged failure of the United States to seek recourse to Article 21.5 of the DSU and to have recourse to, and abide by, the rules and procedures of the DSU.
