_______________ 
  
1. Des activités de surveillance et de dépistage c onduites durant une année environ avaient laissé 
croire que la République d'Haïti était libre d'influenz a aviaire.  Néanmoins, à la fin du mois de mai 
2008 des cas suspects ont été découverts.  Il s'agit de poulets et d'une dinde infectés par le virus H5N2 
(virus peu pathogène).  La confirmation en a été faite  le 5 juin 2008 par le laboratoire de Ames Lowa 
des Etats-Unis.
1  Ce sont 11 cas répartis dans les localités et  zones suivantes: Tilory (Centre), Baskin 
(Sud), Vertières, Saint Michel et Tozen (Nord). 
2. Des mesures ont été déjà prises pour circonscrire ces foyers de grippe aviaire en vue de 
récupérer et d'éliminer les volailles suspectes ou mort es.  Ce ne sera pas c hose facile compte tenu du 
type d'élevage pratiqué par les habitants des localité s et zones affectées.  Des ressources financières 
ont été mises à la disposition de la Direction de  la Santé Animale pour conduire les différentes 
activités programmées. 
3. Par ailleurs, le Programme de lutte  contre la mouche des fruits, espèce Anastrepha obliqua se 
poursuit avec beaucoup d'efficacité.  Les exportations de  mangues Francisque ont été reprises vers le 
marché américain et d'autres march és (Canada, France, Espagne ...).  L'intérêt manifesté par certains, 
sont des signes encourageants et qui exigent égalem ent de bons résultats dans les actions à conduire.

ACTA DE RECTIFICACIÓN
 
 Yo, el infrascrito, Pascal Lamy , Director General de la Organización Mundial del Comercio, 
habiendo examinado el texto auténtico de la Certificac ión de las Modificaciones y Rectificaciones de 
la Lista CLIII - Territori o Aduanero distinto de Taiwán, Penghu, Kinmen y Matsu que fue distribuido en 
el documento WT/Let/578 el 4 de julio de 2007, he hallado en dicho texto errores tipográficos que 
deben rectificarse.  Un aviso en el que señalaban esos  errores fue distribuido a todos los Miembros de 
la Organización Mundial del Comercio con la signatura WT/Let/626 el 15 de julio de 2008. 
 Los errores que hay que rectificar son los siguientes:  1. Página 4, Sección I-A (Agricultural Produc ts - Tariffs), la designación de la línea 
arancelaria 10062000 debe decir "-Husked (brown) rice" -"Arroz descascarillado (arroz cargo o arroz pardo)"-.  Es decir, debe añadirse la palabra que falta ("rice") a la 
designación pertinente de la certificación. 
 2. Página 5, Sección I-A (Agricultural Products - Tariffs), la designación de la línea 
arancelaria 18069071 debe decir "---Prepared  foods obtained by swelling or roasting 
of cereals or cereal products (for exam ple, corn flakes), containing not less than 
30% of rice, containing more than 6% but not more than 8% by weight of cocoa 
calculated on a totally defatted basis" ("Preparaciones alimenticias obtenidas 
mediante inflado o tostado de cereales o sus productos (por ejemplo copos de maíz), con un contenido de arroz superior o i gual al 30 por ciento, con un contenido de 
cacao superior al 6 por ciento pero inferior al 8 por ciento en peso, calculado sobre 
una base totalmente desgrasada").  Es decir , debe sustituirse la palabra "then" en la 
designación pertinente de la certificación por la palabra "than". 
 Como depositario de los Acuerdos de la OMC, y habiendo notificado a los Miembros mi 
intención sin haber recibido ninguna objeción al respecto, he hecho corregir los errores y he 
rubricado estas correcciones al margen del texto auténti co de la Certificación de las Modificaciones y 
Rectificaciones de la Lista CLIII - Territorio Adua nero distinto de Taiwán, Penghu, Kinmen y Matsu 
que se proporcionó a todos los Miembros el 4 de julio de 2007.

 La communication ci-après, datée du 10 mars 2005,  adressée par la délégation des États-Unis

concernant le différend États-Unis – Mesures antidumping appliquées à certains

(WT/DS184 ) 
  
 Les États-Unis soumettent le présent rapport conformément à l'article 21:6 du Mémorandum 
d'accord sur les règ les et procédures régissant le règlement des différends. 
 
 Le 23 août 2001, l'Organe de règlem ent des différends ("ORD") a adopté ses 
recommandations et décisions dans le différend États-Unis – Mesures antidumping appliquées à 
certains produits en acier lami nés à chaud en provenance du Japon  (WT/DS184).  Le 
10 septembre 2001, à la réunion suivante de l'ORD,  les États-Unis ont informé celui-ci de leur 
intention de mettre en œuvre les recommandations et décisions de l'ORD en la matière.  Ils ont alors 
aussi indiqué à l'ORD qu'un "délai raisonnable" serait nécessaire pour achev er ce processus.  Le 
19 février 2002, un arbitre a déterminé qu'un déla i de 15 mois, c'est-à-di re allant jusqu'au 
23 novembre 2002, constituait un dé lai raisonnable pour la mise en œuvre.  Tout dernièrement, 
c'est-à-dire le 31 août 2004, l'ORD a prol ongé cette période jus qu'au 31 juillet 2005. 
  Le 22 novembre 2002, le Département du co mmerce des États-Unis a publié une nouvelle 
détermination finale dans le cad re de l'enquête en matière de droits antidumping concernant des 
produits en acier laminés à chaud, par laquelle sont  mises en œuvre les recommandations et décisions 
de l'ORD relatives au calcul des marges de dumpi ng dans cette enquête.  Les détails de cette 
détermination figurent dans le  document WT/DS184/15/Add.3. 
  En outre, l'Administration des États-Unis reste favorable à des amendements législatifs spécifiques visant à mettre en œuvre les recommandati ons et décisions de l'ORD concernant la Loi 
des États-Unis sur les droits antidumping, et elle collabore avec le Congrès en vue de faire adopter ces 
amendements.
