SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Jkt 250001
Pursuant to section 805 of Title VIII
of the Tariff Act of 1930 (the Softwood
Lumber Act of 2008), the Secretary of
Commerce is mandated to submit to the
appropriate Congressional committees a
report every 180 days on any subsidy
provided by countries exporting
softwood lumber or softwood lumber
products to the United States, including
stumpage subsidies. Commerce
submitted its last subsidy report on
December 30, 2019. As part of its newest
report, Commerce intends to include a
list of subsidy programs identified with
sufficient clarity by the public in
response to this notice.
Request for Comments
Given the large number of countries
that export softwood lumber and
softwood lumber products to the United
States, we are soliciting public comment
only on subsidies provided by countries
which had exports accounting for at
least one percent of total U.S. imports of
softwood lumber by quantity, as
classified under Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS)
codes 4407.1001, 4407.1100, 4407.1200,
4407.1905, 4407.1906, 4407.1910,
during the period July 1, 2019 through
December 31, 2019. Official U.S. import
data published by the United States
International Trade Commission’s
DataWeb indicate that four countries
(Brazil, Canada, Germany, and Sweden)
exported softwood lumber to the United
States during that time period in
amounts sufficient to account for at least
one percent of U.S. imports of softwood
lumber products. We intend to rely on
similar previous six-month periods to
identify the countries subject to future
reports on softwood lumber subsidies.
For example, we will rely on U.S.
imports of softwood lumber and
softwood lumber products during the
period January 1, 2020, through June 30,
2020, to select the countries subject to
the next report.
Under U.S. trade law, a subsidy exists
where an authority: (i) Provides a
financial contribution; (ii) provides any
form of income or price support within
the meaning of Article XVI of the GATT
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
1994; or (iii) makes a payment to a
funding mechanism to provide a
financial contribution to a person, or
entrusts or directs a private entity to
make a financial contribution, if
providing the contribution would
normally be vested in the government
and the practice does not differ in
substance from practices normally
followed by governments, and a benefit
is thereby conferred.1
Parties should include in their
comments: (1) The country which
provided the subsidy; (2) the name of
the subsidy program; (3) a brief
description (no more than 3–4
sentences) of the subsidy program; and
(4) the government body or authority
that provided the subsidy.
Submission of Comments
As specified above, to be assured of
consideration, comments must be
received no later than 30 days after the
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. All comments must be
submitted through the Federal
eRulemaking Portal at https://
www.regulations.gov, Docket No. ITA–
2020–0002. The materials in the docket
will not be edited to remove identifying
or contact information, and Commerce
cautions against including any
information in an electronic submission
that the submitter does not want
publicly disclosed. Attachments to
electronic comments will be accepted in
Microsoft Word, Excel, or Adobe PDF
formats only.
The electronic comments should be
addressed to Joseph Laroski, Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Policy and
Negotiations, at U.S. Department of
Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20230.
