# FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Marc A. Bernstein, Office of General Counsel, United States International Trade Commission, 202-205-3087. Hearing-impaired individuals are advised that information on this matter may be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD terminal on 202-205-3105. 

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Commission believes that German Respondents have justified the need for a closed session to discuss pricing data, trade and financial data pertaining to the domestic industry, and business plans of domestic producers that contain business proprietary information (BPI). In making this decision, the Commission nevertheless reaffirms its belief that whenever possible its business should be conducted in public. 

                    The hearing will include the usual public presentations by parties supporting imposition of duties and respondents, with questions from the Commission. In addition, the hearing will include a ten-minute                     *in camera*                     session for a confidential presentation by German Respondents. This session will be followed by questions from the Commission relating to the BPI and a ten-minute                     *in camera*                     rebuttal presentation by parties supporting imposition of duties, if needed. Following the                     *in camera*                     session, the Commission will reopen the hearing to the public for the public rebuttal/closing statements. During the                     *in camera*                     session the room will be cleared of all persons except those who have been granted access to BPI under a Commission administrative protective order (APO) and are included on the Commission's APO service list in this investigation.                     *See*19 CFR 201.35(b). The time for the parties' presentations and rebuttals in the                     *in camera*                     session will be taken from their respective overall time allotments for the hearing. All persons planning to attend the                     *in camera*                     portions of the hearing should                           ( print page 57652)                        be prepared to present proper identification.                 

Authority:                        The General Counsel has certified, pursuant to Commission Rule 201.39 (19 CFR 201.39) that a portion of the Commission's hearing in                         *Lightweight Thermal Paper from China and Germany,*                         Inv. Nos. 701-TA-451, 731-TA-1126-27 (Final), may be closed to the public to prevent the disclosure of BPI.                     

By order of the Commission. 

Issued: September 29, 2008.
