## I. Abstract 

                    The proposed information collection seeks to gather feedback to allow the Commission to ensure that its procedures for its import injury                           ( print page 53383)                        investigations are fair and are equitably implemented. The user survey asks if the Commission's rules and other written guidance make clear to participants what the Commission expects of them procedurally in an investigation; if there are area(s) where additional guidance would be of benefit to their participation in investigations; if the Commission personnel responded to procedural inquiries in a helpful way; if their access to information collected by/submitted to the Commission was satisfactory; and if they have any other comments or recommended improvements.                 

## II. Method of Collection 

The user survey is a one-page form that will be sent to firms that have participated in an antidumping, countervailing duty, or safeguard investigation since October 1, 2003. Responses are voluntary.
