SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As requested in the USTR's letter of May 15, 
1992, the Commission in its update reports will, as was done in the 
first report, assess the economic effects of significant U.S. import 
restraints on U.S. consumers, on the activities of U.S. firms, on the 
income and employment of U.S. workers, and on the net economic welfare 
of the United States. The investigation will not include import 
restraints resulting from final antidumping or countervailing duty 
investigations, section 337 or 406 investigations, or section 301 
actions.
