This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce.
The Department of Commerce (the Department) is initiating an expedited review of the countervailing duty order on supercalendered paper from Canada with respect to Catalyst Pulp and Paper Sales Inc., Catalyst Paper Corporation, and Catalyst Paper (USA) (collectively, Catalyst) and Irving Paper Limited (Irving).
Effective date: February 8, 2016.
Dana Mermelstein or Toby Vandall, AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and Compliance, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone (202) 482-1391 and (202) 482-1664, respectively.
On December 10, 2015, the Department published the countervailing duty order on supercalendered paper from Canada.[1] ( printed page 6507) On December 15 and 16, 2015, the Department received requests from Catalyst and Irving, respectively, to conduct an expedited review of this countervailing duty order.[2] Irving supplemented its request on January 6, 2015.[3] Catalyst and Irving, companies that were not selected for individual examination during the investigation, made these requests pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(k).
In accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(k)(1)(i)-(iii), Catalyst and Irving each certified that they exported the subject merchandise to the United States during the period of investigation; that they were not affiliated with an exporter or producer that the Department individually examined in the investigation; and that they informed the Government of Canada, as the government of the exporting country, that the government will be required to provide a full response to the Department's questionnaire.
Therefore, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.214(k), we are initiating an expedited review of the countervailing duty order on supercalendered paper from Canada. Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1) and (k)(3), we intend to issue the preliminary results of this expedited review not later than 180 days from the date of initiation of this review.[4] As specified by 19 CFR 351.214(k)(3)(i), the period of review will be the same as the original period of investigation, i.e., January 1, 2014, through December 31, 2014.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.214(k)(3)(iii), the final results of this expedited review will not be the basis for the assessment of countervailing duties. Instead, this expedited review is intended to establish individual cash deposit rates for Catalyst and Irving, or to exclude from the countervailing duty order a company for which the final results of review are zero or de minimis, as provided in 19 CFR 351.214(k)(3)(iv).
Interested parties must submit applications for disclosure under administrative protective orders in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305 and 351.306.
Dated: February 1, 2016.

Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations.
