SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.--On December 9, 2019, the Commission determined that
the domestic interested party group response to its notice of
institution (84 FR 46047, September 3, 2019) of the subject five-year
review was adequate and that the respondent interested party group
response was inadequate. The Commission did not find any other
circumstances that would warrant conducting a full review.\1\
Accordingly, the Commission determined that it would conduct an
expedited review pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ A record of the Commissioners' votes, the Commission's
statement on adequacy, and any individual Commissioner's statements
will be available from the Office of the Secretary and at the
Commission's website.
\2\ Chairman David S. Johanson voted to conduct a full review.

For further information concerning the conduct of this review and
rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201),
and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).
Staff report.--A staff report containing information concerning the
subject matter of the review will be placed in the nonpublic record on
January 6, 2020, and made available to persons on the Administrative
Protective Order service list for this review. A public version will be
issued thereafter, pursuant to section 207.62(d)(4) of the Commission's
rules.
Written submissions.--As provided in section 207.62(d) of the
Commission's rules, interested parties that are parties to the review
and that have provided individually adequate responses to the notice of
institution,\3\ and any party other than an interested party to the
review may file written comments with the Secretary on what
determination the Commission should reach in the review. Comments are
due on or before January 21, 2020, and may not contain new factual
information. Any person that is neither a party to the five-year review
nor an interested party may submit a brief written statement (which
shall not contain any new factual information) pertinent to the review
by January 21, 2020. However, should the Department of Commerce
(``Commerce'') extend the time limit for its completion of the final
results of its review, the deadline for comments (which may not contain
new factual information) on Commerce's final results is three business
days after the issuance of Commerce's results. If comments contain
business proprietary information (BPI), they must conform with the
requirements of sections 201.6, 207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission's
rules. The Commission's rules with respect to filing were revised
effective July 25, 2014. See 79 FR 35920 (June 25, 2014). The
Commission's Handbook on Filing Procedures, available on the
Commission's website at https://www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_on_filing_procedures.pdf, elaborates upon the Commission's
procedures with respect to filings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ The Commission has found the responses submitted by Great
Lakes Minerals, LLC; Imerys Fused Minerals Niagara Falls, Inc.; U.S.
Electrofused Minerals, Inc.; and Washington Mills Group, Inc. to be
individually adequate. Comments from other interested parties will
not be accepted (see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the rules, each
document filed by a party to the review must be served on all other
parties to the review (as identified by either the public or BPI
service list), and a certificate of service must be timely filed. The
Secretary will not accept a document for filing without a certificate
of service.
Determination.--The Commission has determined this review is
extraordinarily complicated and therefore has determined to exercise
its authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days pursuant to
19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(5)(B).
Authority: This review is being conducted under authority of
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published
pursuant to section 207.62 of the Commission's rules.
By order of the Commission.
Issued: January 14, 2020.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
