SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Scope.--For purposes of these investigations, Commerce has defined 
the subject merchandise as strontium chromate, regardless of form 
(including but not limited to, powder (sometimes known as granular), 
dispersions (sometimes known as paste), or in any solution). The 
chemical formula for strontium chromate is SrCrO4 and the Chemical 
Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number is 7789-06-2.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Strontium chromate that has been blended with another 
product or products is included in the scope if the resulting mix 
contains 15 percent or more of strontium chromate by total formula 
weight. Products with which strontium chromate may be blended 
include, but are not limited to, water and solvents such as Aromatic 
100 Methyl Amyl Ketone (MAK)/2-Heptanone, Acetone, Glycol Ether EB, 
Naphtha Leicht, and Xylene. Subject merchandise includes strontium 
chromate that has been processed in a third country into a product

CFR part 207).
    Although Commerce has preliminarily determined that imports of 
strontium chromate from Austria are not being and are not likely to be 
sold in the United States at less than fair value, for purposes of 
efficiency the Commission hereby waives rule 207.21(b) \2\ so that the 
final phase of the investigations may proceed concurrently in the event 
that Commerce makes a final affirmative determination with respect to 
such imports.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Section 207.21(b) of the Commission's rules provides that,
