Background: In response to an earlier
request from the USTR, the
Commission, on June 2, 2010, delivered
a report to the USTR containing its
advice and assessment in investigation
Nos. TA–131–034 and TA–2104–026,
U.S.-Trans-Pacific Partnership Free
Trade Agreement: Advice on Probable
Economic Effect of Providing Duty-Free
Treatment for Imports, relating to the
effects of a possible free trade agreement
with seven countries (Australia, Brunei
Darussalam, Chile, New Zealand, Peru,
Singapore, and Vietnam).
In his letter of October 5, 2010, the
USTR advised the Commission that
Malaysia has joined the negotiations,
known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership
(TPP) negotiations, and requested that
the Commission provide certain advice
under section 131 of the Trade Act of
1974 (19 U.S.C. 2151) and an
assessment under section 2104(b)(2) of
the Trade Act of 2002 (19 U.S.C.
3804(b)(2)) with respect to the effects of
providing duty-free treatment for
imports from all eight countries.
More specifically, the USTR, under
authority delegated by the President and
pursuant to section 131 of the Trade Act
of 1974, requested that the Commission
provide a report containing its advice as
to the probable economic effect of
providing duty-free treatment for
imports of products from the eight TPP
partner countries (Australia, Brunei
Darussalam, Chile, Malaysia, New
Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam)
on (i) industries in the United States
producing like or directly competitive
products, and (ii) on consumers. The
USTR asked that the Commission’s
analysis consider each article in
chapters 1 through 97 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS) for which tariffs
will remain, taking into account
PO 00000
Frm 00048
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

implementation of U.S. commitments in
the World Trade Organization and
under U.S. free trade agreements in
force between the United States and
TPP partner countries. The USTR asked
that the advice be based on the HTS in
effect during 2010 and trade data for
2008. The USTR also requested that the
Commission, in preparing its advice,
assume that any known U.S. non-tariff
barrier will not be applicable to such
imports, and that the Commission note
in its report any instance in which the
continued application of a U.S. nontariff barrier would result in different
advice with respect to the effect of the
removal of the duty.
In addition, the USTR requested that
the Commission prepare an assessment,
pursuant to section 2104(b)(2) of the
Trade Act of 2002, of the probable
economic effects of eliminating tariffs
on imports from the TPP countries of
those agricultural products on the list
attached to his letter on (i) industries in
the United States producing the product
concerned, and (ii) the U.S. economy as
a whole.
The USTR asked that the Commission
identify in its report, among other
things, any changes in its advice from
the advice delivered on June 2, 2010,
that did not include Malaysia. The
USTR also stated that the Commission
need not repeat analysis and discussion
included in that earlier report. The
USTR further asked that the
Commission, to the extent appropriate,
draw from discussion and analysis in its
report delivered to USTR on June 30,
2006, relating to a U.S.-Malaysia FTA
(investigation Nos. TA–131–033 and
TA–2104–022, U.S.-Malaysia Free
Trade Agreement: Advice Concerning
the Probable Economic Effect of
Providing Duty-Free Treatment for
Imports).
As requested, the Commission will
provide its report to the USTR by
January 7, 2011. The USTR indicated
that those sections of the Commission’s
report that relate to the advice and
assessment of probable economic effects
will be classified. The USTR also
indicated that he considers the
Commission’s report to be an interagency memorandum that will contain
pre-decisional advice and be subject to
the deliberative process privilege.
Public Hearing: A public hearing in
connection with these investigations
will be held at the U.S. International
Trade Commission Building, 500 E
Street, SW., Washington, DC, beginning
at 9:30 a.m., November 17, 2010.
Requests to appear at the public hearing
should be filed with the Secretary not
later than 5:15 p.m., November 10, 2010,
in accordance with the requirements in
