SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.—On June 5, 2023, the
Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group
response to its notice of institution (88
FR 12992, March 1, 2023) of the subject
five-year review was adequate and that
the respondent interested party group
response was inadequate. The
Commission did not find any other
circumstances that would warrant
conducting a full review.1 Accordingly,
the Commission determined that it
would conduct an expedited review
pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the
Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1675(c)(3)).2
For further information concerning
the conduct of this review and rules of
general application, consult the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B
(19 CFR part 201), and part 207,
subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part
207).
Staff report.—A staff report
containing information concerning the
subject matter of the review has been
placed in the nonpublic record, and will
be made available to persons on the
Administrative Protective Order service
list for this review on August 23, 2023.
A public version will be issued
thereafter, pursuant to § 207.62(d)(4) of
the Commission’s rules.
Written submissions.—As provided in
§ 207.62(d) of the Commission’s rules,
interested parties that are parties to the
review and that have provided
individually adequate responses to the
notice of institution,3 and any party
other than an interested party to the
review may file written comments with
the Secretary on what determination the
Commission should reach in the review.
Comments are due on or before August
31, 2023 and may not contain new
factual information. Any person that is
neither a party to the five-year review
nor an interested party may submit a
record of the Commissioners’ votes, the
Commission’s statement on adequacy, and any
individual Commissioner’s statements will be
available from the Office of the Secretary and at the
Commission’s website.
2 Chairman David S. Johanson voted to conduct
a full review.
3 The Commission has found the responses
submitted on behalf of the American Honey
Producers Association and the Sioux Honey
Association to be individually adequate. Comments
from other interested parties will not be accepted
(see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)).

contain any new factual information)
pertinent to the review by August 31,
2023. However, should the Department
of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) extend the
time limit for its completion of the final
results of its review, the deadline for
comments (which may not contain new
factual information) on Commerce’s
final results is three business days after
the issuance of Commerce’s results. If
comments contain business proprietary
information (BPI), they must conform
with the requirements of §§ 201.6,
207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission’s
rules. The Commission’s Handbook on
Filing Procedures, available on the
Commission’s website at https://
www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_
on_filing_procedures.pdf, elaborates
upon the Commission’s procedures with
respect to filings.
In accordance with §§ 201.16(c) and
207.3 of the rules, each document filed
by a party to the review must be served
on all other parties to the review (as
identified by either the public or BPI
service list), and a certificate of service
must be timely filed. The Secretary will
not accept a document for filing without
a certificate of service.
Determination.—The Commission has
determined this review is
extraordinarily complicated and
therefore has determined to exercise its
authority to extend the review period by
up to 90 days pursuant to 19 U.S.C.
1675(c)(5)(B).
Authority: This review is being
conducted under authority of title VII of
the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is
published pursuant to § 207.62 of the
Commission’s rules.

reviews, may in their discretion for good cause shown, grant such a
request. Requests to appear as remote witness due to illness or a
positive COVID-19 test result may be submitted by 3 p.m. the business
day prior to the hearing. Further information about participation in
the hearing will be posted on the Commission's website at https://www.usitc.gov/calendarpad/calendar.html.
A nonparty who has testimony that may aid the Commission's
deliberations may request permission to present a short statement at
the hearing. All parties and nonparties desiring to appear at the
hearing and make oral presentations should attend a prehearing
conference, if deemed necessary, to be held at 9:30 a.m. on November
22, 2023. Parties shall file and serve written testimony and
presentation slides in connection with their presentation at the
hearing by no later than 4:00 p.m. on November 27, 2023. Oral testimony
and written materials to be submitted at the public hearing are
governed by sections 201.6(b)(2), 201.13(f), and 207.24 of the
Commission's rules. Parties must submit any request to present a
portion of their hearing testimony in camera no later than 7 business
days prior to the date of the hearing.
Written submissions.--Each party to the reviews may submit a
prehearing brief to the Commission. Prehearing briefs must conform with
the provisions of section 207.65 of the Commission's rules; the
deadline for filing is 5:15 p.m. November 20, 2023. Parties shall also
file written testimony in connection with their presentation at the
hearing, and posthearing briefs, which must conform with the provisions
of section 207.67 of the Commission's rules. The deadline for filing
posthearing briefs is 5:15 p.m. on December 5, 2023. In addition, any
person who has not entered an appearance as a party to the reviews may
submit a written statement of information pertinent to the subject of
the reviews on or before 5:15 p.m. on December 5, 2023. On January 5,
2024, the Commission will make available to parties all information on
which they have not had an opportunity to comment. Parties may submit
final comments on this information on or before 5:15 p.m. on January
10, 2024, but such final comments must not contain new factual
information and must otherwise comply with section 207.68 of the
Commission's rules. All written submissions must conform with the
provisions of section 201.8 of the Commission's rules; any submissions
that contain BPI must also conform with the requirements of sections
201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission's rules. The Commission's
Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the Commission's website at
https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf,
elaborates
[[Page 44843]]
upon the Commission's procedures with respect to filings.
Additional written submissions to the Commission, including
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, shall
not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such
submissions, or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request
by a Commissioner or Commission staff.
In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission's
rules, each document filed by a party to the reviews must be served on
all other parties to the reviews (as identified by either the public or
BPI service list), and a certificate of service must be timely filed.
The Secretary will not accept a document for filing without a
certificate of service.
The Commission has determined that these reviews are
extraordinarily complicated and therefore has determined to exercise
its authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days pursuant to
19 U.S.C.1675(c)(5)(B).
Authority: These reviews are being conducted under authority of
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published pursuant
to section 207.62 of the Commission's rules.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: July 10, 2023.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
