 The following communication, dated 25 Septem ber 2008, from the Chairman of the Appellate 
Body addressed to the Chairman of the Dispute Settlement Body, is  circulated in accordance with 
Article 17.5 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes . 
 
_______________ 
 
  I am writing to you pursuant to Article 17.5 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures 
Governing the Settlement of Disputes , which stipulates that, as a general rule, the Appellate Body will 
circulate its Report no later than 60 days afte r the appellant has formally notified the Dispute 
Settlement Body (the "DSB") of its decision to appeal .  Article 17.5 states, furthermore, that when the 
Appellate Body considers that it cannot provide its Report within 60 days, it shall inform the DSB in 
writing of the reasons for the delay together with an estimate of the period within which it will submit 
its Report.  
 The United States notified the DSB on 1 August 2008 of its decision to appeal certain issues 
of law covered in the Panel Report and legal interpretations developed by the Panel in this case, with 
the result that the 60-day period expires on Tuesday, 30 September 2008.  Due to the time required for 
completion and translation of the Report, the Appella te Body will not be able to circulate its Report 
by Tuesday, 30 September 2008.  We estimate that th e Appellate Body Report in this appeal will be 
circulated to WTO Members no later than Thursday, 30 October 2008.

Communication from the United States 
 
 
 The following communication, dated 6 July 2009,  from the delegation of the United States to 
the delegation of China, the delegation of the Eu ropean Communities and to the Chairman of the 
Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated in accordance with Article 4.11 of the DSU. 
 
_______________ 
 
 
This concerns the request for consu ltations by the European Communities on  China – 
Measures Related to the Exporta tion of Various Raw Materials , circulated on 25 June 2009 
(WT/DS395/1).   My authorities have instructed me to no tify the consulting Members and the Dispute 
Settlement Body of the desire of the United States to be joined in these consultations, pursuant to 
Article 4.11 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes .  
The United States has a substantial trade interest  in these consultations.  They concern certain 
measures of China related to the exportation of  various raw materials from China on which the 
United States has also requested consultati ons (WT/DS394/1).  These measures restrain the 
exportation of raw materials from China, including th e nine materials at issue, that are used by 
US industries, and they affect the conditions of competition facing US-produced goods sold in the US and foreign markets.

Paragraph 130 on page 23 should read :  "The representative of Zimbabwe  recalled the 
impressive economic growth achieved by the EAC countries.  Referring to overlapping membership, 
he said that they would have to withdraw from so me of the regional arrangements.  Zimbabwe hoped 
that the EAC consolidated on its reforms, in pa rticular to strengthen South-South trade.  The 
implementation of deeper structural reforms, and trad e liberalization should ensure that the rules of the 
multilateral trading system did not increase the burden on the EAC countries.  Zimbabwe hoped that these reforms would support the develo pment processes and poverty reduction".

Questions Posed by CHILE Regarding the Notification of GUATEMALA1 
 
  The following communication, dated 8 April 2008, is being circulated at the request of the delegation of Chile.  
_______________ 
 
 
Question 1
 
 
 It is stated in the third paragraph of Article 19 that " The investigating authority may conduct 
verification visits in other countries as required, s ubject to the agreement of the firms concerned … ".  
Does this mean that refusal by one of the firms would make it impossible to conduct such visits in 
other countries, thereby impeding the investigati on?  Does the term "firms concerned" refer 
exclusively to the firms under investigation or does it also refer to th e firms requesting the 
investigation? 
 
Question 2  
 
 In Chapter III of the notified legislation – Articles 33 and 34 – reference is made to 
provisional and definitive measures that may be implemented by the States parties.  In this connection, as this is a regional procedure (as indicated  by the title of the chapter), if it is decided to 
apply a measure, can such measure be applied in another State party even though the latter is not 
being affected by injury?
