SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On March 22, 1984, the 

Department of Commerce issued an 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

chloropicrin from China (49 FR 10691). 

Following first five-year reviews by 

Commerce and the Commission, 

effective April 14, 1999, Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

chloropicrin from China (64 FR 42655, 

August 15, 1999). Following second 

five-year reviews by Commerce and the 

Commission, effective August 23, 2004, 

Commerce issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

chloropicrin from China (69 FR 51811). 

Following third five-year reviews by 

Commerce and the Commission, 

effective May 18, 2010, Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

chloropicrin from China (75 FR 27704). 

The Commission is now conducting a 

fourth review to determine whether 

revocation of the order would be likely 

to lead to continuation or recurrence of 

material injury to the domestic industry 

within a reasonably foreseeable time. It 

will assess the adequacy of interested 

party responses to this notice of 

institution to determine whether to 

conduct a full review or an expedited 

review. The Commission’s 

determination in any expedited review 

will be based on the facts available, 

which may include information 

provided in response to this notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to this review: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 62 / Wednesday, April 1, 2015 / Notices 17497 

scope of the five-year review, as defined 

by the Department of Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Country in this review 

is China. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its original 

determination, its expedited first and 

second five-year review determinations, 

and its full third five-year review 

determination, the Commission defined 

the Domestic Like Product as 

chloropicrin. 

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. 

producers as a whole of the Domestic 

Like Product, or those producers whose 

collective output of the Domestic Like 

Product constitutes a major proportion 

of the total domestic production of the 

product. In its original determination, 

its expedited first and second five-year 

review determinations, and its full third 

five-year review determination, the 

Commission defined the Domestic 

Industry as all U.S. producers of 

chloropicrin. 

(5) An Importer is any person or firm 

engaged, either directly or through a 

parent company or subsidiary, in 

importing the Subject Merchandise into 

the United States from a foreign 

manufacturer or through its selling 

agent. 

Participation in the proceeding and 

public service list.—Persons, including 

industrial users of the Subject 

Merchandise and, if the merchandise is 

sold at the retail level, representative 

consumer organizations, wishing to 

participate in the proceeding as parties 

must file an entry of appearance with 

the Secretary to the Commission, as 

provided in section 201.11(b)(4) of the 

Commission’s rules, no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. The Secretary will 

maintain a public service list containing 

the names and addresses of all persons, 

or their representatives, who are parties 

to the proceeding. 

Former Commission employees who 

are seeking to appear in Commission 

five-year reviews are advised that they 

may appear in a review even if they 

participated personally and 

substantially in the corresponding 

underlying original investigation or an 

earlier review of the same underlying 

investigation. The Commission’s 

designated agency ethics official has 

advised that a five-year review is not the 

same particular matter as the underlying 

original investigation, and a five-year 

review is not the same particular matter 

as an earlier review of the same 

underlying investigation for purposes of 

18 U.S.C. 207, the post employment 

statute for Federal employees, and 

Commission rule 201.15(b) (19 CFR 

201.15(b)), 79 FR 3246 (Jan. 17, 2014), 

73 FR 24609 (May 5, 2008). 

Consequently, former employees are not 

required to seek Commission approval 

to appear in a review under Commission 

rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the 

corresponding underlying original 

investigation or an earlier review of the 

same underlying investigation was 

pending when they were Commission 

employees. For further ethics advice on 

this matter, contact Carol McCue 

Verratti, Deputy Agency Ethics Official, 

at 202–205–3088. 

Limited disclosure of business 

proprietary information (BPI) under an 

administrative protective order (APO) 

and APO service list.—Pursuant to 

section 207.7(a) of the Commission’s 

rules, the Secretary will make BPI 

submitted in this proceeding available 

to authorized applicants under the APO 

issued in the proceeding, provided that 

the application is made no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. Authorized 

applicants must represent interested 

parties, as defined in 19 U.S.C. 1677(9), 

who are parties to the proceeding. A 

separate service list will be maintained 

by the Secretary for those parties 

authorized to receive BPI under the 

APO. 

Certification.—Pursuant to section 

207.3 of the Commission’s rules, any 

person submitting information to the 

Commission in connection with this 

proceeding must certify that the 

information is accurate and complete to 

the best of the submitter’s knowledge. In 

making the certification, the submitter 

will be deemed to consent, unless 

otherwise specified, for the 

Commission, its employees, and 

contract personnel to use the 

information provided in any other 

reviews or investigations of the same or 

comparable products which the 

Commission conducts under Title VII of 

the Act, or in internal audits and 

investigations relating to the programs 

and operations of the Commission 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. Appendix 3. 

Written submissions.—Pursuant to 

section 207.61 of the Commission’s 

rules, each interested party response to 

this notice must provide the information 

specified below. The deadline for filing 

such responses is May 1, 2015. Pursuant 

to section 207.62(b) of the Commission’s 

rules, eligible parties (as specified in 

Commission rule 207.62(b)(1)) may also 

file comments concerning the adequacy 

of responses to the notice of institution 

and whether the Commission should 

conduct an expedited or full review. 

The deadline for filing such comments 

is June 15, 2015. All written 

submissions must conform with the 

provisions of sections 201.8 and 207.3 

of the Commission’s rules and any 

submissions that contain BPI must also 

conform with the requirements of 

sections 201.6 and 207.7 of the 

Commission’s rules. Please be aware 

that the Commission’s rules with 

respect to filing have changed. The most 

recent amendments took effect on July 

25, 2014. See 79 FR 35920 (June 25, 

2014), and the revised Commission 

Handbook on E-filing, available from the 

Commission’s Web site at http://

edis.usitc.gov. Also, in accordance with 

sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the 

Commission’s rules, each document 

filed by a party to the proceeding must 

be served on all other parties to the 

proceeding (as identified by either the 

public or APO service list as 

appropriate), and a certificate of service 

must accompany the document (if you 

are not a party to the proceeding you do 

not need to serve your response). 

Inability to provide requested 

information.—Pursuant to section 

207.61(c) of the Commission’s rules, any 

interested party that cannot furnish the 

information requested by this notice in 

the requested form and manner shall 

notify the Commission at the earliest 

possible time, provide a full explanation 

of why it cannot provide the requested

forms in which it can provide 

equivalent information. If an interested 

party does not provide this notification 

(or the Commission finds the 

explanation provided in the notification 

inadequate) and fails to provide a 

complete response to this notice, the 

Commission may take an adverse 

inference against the party pursuant to 

section 776(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 

1677e(b)) in making its determination in 

the review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On January 25, 2005, 

the Department of Commerce issued an 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

certain crepe paper products from China 

(70 FR 3509). Following first five-year 

reviews by Commerce and the 

Commission, effective May 13, 2010, 

Commerce issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

crepe paper from China (75 FR 26919). 

The Commission is now conducting a 

second review to determine whether 

revocation of the order would be likely 

to lead to continuation or recurrence of 

material injury to the domestic industry 

within a reasonably foreseeable time. It 

will assess the adequacy of interested 

party responses to this notice of 

institution to determine whether to 

conduct a full review or an expedited 

review. The Commission’s 

determination in any expedited review 

will be based on the facts available, 

which may include information 

provided in response to this notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to this review: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

scope of the five-year review, as defined 

by the Department of Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Country in this review 

is China. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its original 

determination and its expedited first 

five-year review determination, the 

Commission defined the Domestic Like 

Product as crepe paper, coextensive 

with Commerce’s scope. 

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. 

producers as a whole of the Domestic 

Like Product, or those producers whose 

collective output of the Domestic Like 

Product constitutes a major proportion 

of the total domestic production of the 

product. In its original determination 

and its expedited first five-year review 

determination, the Commission defined 

the Domestic Industry as all domestic 

producers (whether integrated or 

converters) of crepe paper. 

(5) An Importer is any person or firm 

engaged, either directly or through a 

parent company or subsidiary, in 

importing the Subject Merchandise into 

the United States from a foreign 

manufacturer or through its selling 

agent. 

Participation in the proceeding and 

public service list.—Persons, including 

industrial users of the Subject 

Merchandise and, if the merchandise is 

sold at the retail level, representative 

consumer organizations, wishing to 

participate in the proceeding as parties 

must file an entry of appearance with 

the Secretary to the Commission, as 

provided in section 201.11(b)(4) of the 

Commission’s rules, no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. The Secretary will 

maintain a public service list containing 

the names and addresses of all persons, 

or their representatives, who are parties 

to the proceeding. 

Former Commission employees who 

are seeking to appear in Commission 

five-year reviews are advised that they 

may appear in a review even if they 

participated personally and 

substantially in the corresponding 

underlying original investigation or an 

earlier review of the same underlying 

investigation. The Commission’s 

designated agency ethics official has 

advised that a five-year review is not the 

same particular matter as the underlying 

original investigation, and a five-year 

review is not the same particular matter 

as an earlier review of the same 

underlying investigation for purposes of 

18 U.S.C. 207, the post employment 

statute for Federal employees, and 

Commission rule 201.15(b) (19 CFR 

201.15(b)), 79 FR 3246 (Jan. 17, 2014), 

73 FR 24609 (May 5, 2008). 

Consequently, former employees are not 

required to seek Commission approval 

to appear in a review under Commission 

rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the 

corresponding underlying original 

investigation or an earlier review of the 

same underlying investigation was 

pending when they were Commission 

employees. For further ethics advice on 

this matter, contact Carol McCue 

Verratti, Deputy Agency Ethics Official, 

at 202–205–3088. 

Limited disclosure of business 

proprietary information (BPI) under an 

administrative protective order (APO) 

and APO service list.—Pursuant to 

section 207.7(a) of the Commission’s 

rules, the Secretary will make BPI 

submitted in this proceeding available 

to authorized applicants under the APO 

issued in the proceeding, provided that 

the application is made no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. Authorized
