ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Commission hereby gives
notice of the scheduling of expedited
reviews pursuant to the Tariff Act of
1930 (‘‘the Act’’) to determine whether

a reasonably foreseeable time.

the Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group
response to its notice of institution (85
FR 46725, August 3, 2020) of the subject
five-year reviews was adequate and that
the respondent interested party group
response was inadequate. The
Commission did not find any other
circumstances that would warrant
conducting full reviews.1 Accordingly,
the Commission determined that it
would conduct expedited reviews
pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the
Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).
For further information concerning
the conduct of these reviews and rules

persons on the Administrative
Protective Order service list for these

other than an interested party to the
reviews may file written comments with
the Secretary on what determination the
Commission should reach in the
reviews. Comments are due on or before

new factual information. Any person
that is neither a party to the five-year
reviews nor an interested party may
submit a brief written statement (which
shall not contain any new factual
information) pertinent to the reviews by

Commerce’s final results is three
business days after the issuance of
