SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective
March 3, 2023, the Commission
established a general schedule for the
conduct of the final phase of its
antidumping duty investigation and
countervailing duty investigation on
certain freight rail couplers and parts
thereof (‘‘FRCs’’) from China and
Mexico (88 FR 16031, March 15, 2023),
following a preliminary determination
by the U.S. Department of Commerce
(‘‘Commerce’’) that imports of FRCs
from China were being subsidized by
the government of China (88 FR 13425,
March 3, 2023), and sold in the United
States at less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’)
(88 FR 15372, March 13, 2023). Notice
of the scheduling of the final phase of
the Commission’s investigations and of
a public hearing held in connection
therewith was given by posting copies
of the notice in the Office of the
Secretary, U.S. International Trade
Commission, Washington, DC, and by
publishing the notice in the Federal
Register on March 15, 2023 (88 FR
16031). The Commission conducted its
hearing through in-person on May 18,
2023. All persons who requested the
opportunity were permitted to
participate.
Commerce issued final affirmative
countervailing and antidumping duty
determinations with respect to imports
of FRCs from China (88 FR 32184, May
19 2023; 88 FR 34485, May 30, 2023).
The Commission subsequently issued
Its final determination that an industry
in the United States was materially
injured by reason of imports of FRCs
from China, provided for in subheadings
8607.30.10 and 7326.90.86 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States, that have been found by
Commerce to be sold in the United
States at LTFV and subsidized by the
government of China (88 FR 43398, June
7, 2023).
Commerce issued a final affirmative
antidumping duty determination with
respect to imports of FRCs from Mexico
(88 FR 65153, September 21, 2023).
Accordingly, the Commission currently
is issuing a supplemental schedule for
its antidumping duty investigation on
imports of FRCs from Mexico.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.—On September 5, 2023,
the Commission determined that the
domestic interested party group
response to its notice of institution (88
FR 35917, June 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 Act
(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).2
For further information concerning
the conduct of this review and rules of
SUMMARY:
1 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 Johanson voted to conduct a full
review.

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 October 4, 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 5:15
p.m. on October 12, 2023, and may not
contain new factual information. Any
person that is neither a party to the fiveyear review nor an interested party may
submit a brief written statement (which
shall not contain any new factual
information) pertinent to the review by
October 12, 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

upon the Commission’s procedures with
respect to filings.

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.
3 The Commission has found the response
submitted on behalf of Hallmark Cards, Inc. to be
individually adequate. Comments from other
interested parties will not be accepted (see 19 CFR
207.62(d)(2)).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective March 3, 2023, the Commission
established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of
its antidumping duty investigation and countervailing duty
investigation on certain freight rail couplers and parts thereof
(``FRCs'') from China and Mexico (88 FR 16031, March 15, 2023),
following a preliminary determination by the U.S. Department of
Commerce (``Commerce'') that imports of FRCs from China were being
subsidized by the government of China (88 FR 13425, March 3, 2023), and
sold in the United States at less than fair value (``LTFV'') (88 FR
15372, March 13, 2023). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of
the Commission's investigations and of a public hearing held in

by Commerce to be sold in the United States at LTFV and subsidized by

with respect to imports of FRCs from Mexico (88 FR 65153, September 21,
2023). Accordingly, the Commission currently is issuing a supplemental
