Summary of Commission Practice
Relating to Administrative Protective
Orders
U.S. International Trade
Commission.
ACTION: Summary of Commission
practice relating to administrative
protective orders
AGENCY:
Since February 1991, the U.S.
International Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has issued an annual
report on the status of its practice with
respect to violations of its
administrative protective orders
(‘‘APOs’’) under title VII of the Tariff
Act of 1930, in response to a direction
contained in the Conference Report to
the Customs and Trade Act of 1990.
Over time, the Commission has added to
its report discussions of APO breaches
in Commission proceedings other than
under title VII and violations of the
Commission’s rules including the rule
on bracketing business proprietary
information (‘‘BPI’’) (the ‘‘24-hour
rule’’), 19 CFR 207.3(c). This notice
provides a summary of breach
investigations completed during
calendar year 2012. This summary
addresses two proceedings under
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930.
There were no breach investigations in
title VII proceedings or rules violation
investigations completed in 2012. The
Commission intends that this report
inform representatives of parties to
Commission proceedings as to some
specific types of APO breaches
encountered by the Commission and the
corresponding types of actions the
Commission has taken.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

General Counsel, U.S. International
Trade Commission, telephone (202)

Act of 1930, section 337 of the Tariff Act
of 1930, the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) Article 1904.13,
and safeguard-related provisions such as
section 202 of the Trade Act of 1974,
may enter into APOs that permit them,
under strict conditions, to obtain access
to BPI (title VII) and confidential
business information (‘‘CBI’’)
(safeguard-related provisions and
section 337) of other parties. See, e.g.,
19 U.S.C. 1677f; 19 CFR 207.7; 19 U.S.C.
1337(n); 19 CFR 210.5, 210.34; 19 U.S.C.
2252(i); 19 CFR 206.17; and 19 U.S.C.
1516a(g)(7)(A); 19 CFR 207.100, et seq.
The discussion below describes APO
breach investigations that the
Commission has completed during
calendar year 2012, including a
description of actions taken in response
to these breaches.
Since 1991, the Commission has
published annually a summary of its
actions in response to violations of
Commission APOs and the 24-hour rule.
See 56 FR 4846 (February 6, 1991); 57

(December 28, 2012). This report does
not provide an exhaustive list of
conduct that will be deemed to be a
breach of the Commission’s APOs. APO
breach inquiries are considered on a
case-by-case basis. As part of the effort
to educate practitioners about the
Commission’s current APO practice, the
Commission Secretary issued in March
2005 a fourth edition of An Introduction
to Administrative Protective Order
Practice in Import Injury Investigations
(Pub. No. 3755). This document is
