SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. General Background
In the Uruguay Round Agreements
Act (URAA), Public Law 103–465,
Congress amended the CVD law to
conform to U.S. obligations under the
WTO Agreement on Subsidies and
Countervailing Measures (SCM
Agreement). Under the SCM Agreement,
WTO Members that have not yet
reached the status of a developed
country are entitled to special treatment
for purposes of countervailing measures.
Specifically, imports from such
Members are subject to different
thresholds for purposes of determining
whether countervailable subsidies are
de minimis and whether import
volumes are negligible.
Under section 771(36) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), 19
U.S.C. 1677(36), Congress delegated to
the U.S. Trade Representative the
responsibility for designating those
WTO Members whose imports are
subject to these special thresholds. In
addition, section 771(36)(D) requires the
U.S. Trade Representative to publish a
list of designations, updated as
necessary, in the Federal Register. This
notice implements the requirements of
section 771(36)(D).
On June 2, 1998, the U.S. Trade
Representative published an interim
final rule (1998 rule) designating
Subsidy Agreement countries eligible
for special de minimis countervailable
subsidy and negligible import volume
standards under the CVD law. See 63 FR
29945. ‘‘Subsidies Agreement country’’
is defined in section 701(b) of the Act,
19 U.S.C. 1671(b), and includes
countries that are WTO Members. The
U.S. Trade Representative is revising the
lists in the 1998 rule, as described
below, and removing the 1998 rule
because it now is obsolete.
B. Explanation of the List
1. Introduction
For purposes of countervailing
measures, the SCM Agreement extends
special and differential treatment to
