Jkt 238001
Indonesia has requested the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Micah Myers, Associate General

General Counsel, Office of the United
States Trade Representative, 600 17th

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
127(b) of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act (‘‘URAA’’) (19 U.S.C.
3537(b)(1)) 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 dispute settlement panel has been
requested pursuant to the DSU. The
panel will hold its meetings in Geneva,
Switzerland.
Major Issues Raised by Indonesia
On November 17, 2010, the U.S.
Department of Commerce (‘‘DOC’’)
published antidumping (‘‘AD’’) and
countervailing duty (‘‘CVD’’) orders (75
FR 70205; 75 FR 70206) on certain
coated paper from Indonesia. On March
13, 2015, Indonesia requested WTO
dispute settlement consultations
regarding some of DOC’s determinations
in the CVD investigation, as well as the
U.S. International Trade Commission’s
(‘‘ITC’’) threat of material injury
determinations in both the AD and CVD

proceedings. Indonesia and the United
States held consultations in Geneva on
June 25, 2015.
Indonesia filed a request for the
establishment of a WTO dispute
settlement panel in this matter on July
9, 2015. USTR notified, and solicited
comments from, the public in
connection with that request on August
11, 2015 (see 80 FR 48,134).
Subsequently, on August 20, 2015,
Indonesia filed a new request for the
establishment of a WTO dispute
settlement panel in this matter. The
WTO Dispute Settlement Body
established a panel on September 28,
2015.
In its panel request, Indonesia
contends that the DOC’s findings of
countervailable subsidies with respect
to a number of government practices in
the logging and paper industries are
inconsistent with Article VI of the
General Agreement on Tariffs And
Trade 1994 (‘‘GATT 1994’’) and the
Agreement on Subsidies and
Countervailing Measures (‘‘SCM
Agreement’’). Indonesia also contends
that the ITC’s affirmative threat
determinations in both the AD and CVD
investigations breach Article VI of the
GATT 1994, the Agreement on
Implementation of Article VI of the
General Agreement on Tariffs And
Trade 1994 (‘‘AD Agreement’’), and the
SCM Agreement. In addition, Indonesia
raises an ‘‘as such’’ challenge to the
statutory tie-vote provision set out in
Section 771(11)(B) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (codified at 19 U.S.C. 1677(11)(B)),
claiming that this provision breaches
Article VI of the GATT 1994, Articles 1
and 3.8 of the AD Agreement, and
Articles 10 and 15.8 of the SCM
Agreement.
Indonesia also lists in its panel
request the following items as part of its
challenge: ‘‘The determinations by the
[DOC] and [ITC] to initiate certain antidumping duty and countervailing duty
investigations, the conduct of those
investigations, any preliminary or final
anti-dumping duty and countervailing
duty determinations issued in those
investigations, any definitive antidumping duties and countervailing
duties imposed as a result of those
investigations, including any notices,
annexes, orders, decision memoranda,
or other instruments issued by the
United States in connection with the
anti-dumping duty and countervailing
duty measures.’’
Indonesia contends DOC’s
determination that Indonesia provided
standing timber for less than adequate
remuneration breaches Article 2.1 of the
SCM Agreement because DOC failed to
properly examine whether the
