Topic for Comment
The Commission requests comment
on the following topic.
International
The adoption of competition or
antitrust laws by over 100 jurisdictions
around the world, as well as the
globalization of commerce and markets,
has given rise to the potential for
conflict between the United States and
foreign jurisdictions with respect to
enforcement actions taken and remedies
sought. Are there multilateral
procedures that should be implemented,
or other actions taken, to enhance
international antitrust comity? In
commenting, please address the
significance of the issue, what solutions
might reduce that problem, and how
such solutions could be implemented by
the United States.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 12, 2005, the Department
published in the Federal Register the
preliminary results of the second
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on carbon and
certain alloy steel wire rod from
Trinidad and Tobago. See Preliminary
Results of Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review: Carbon and
Certain Steel Alloy Steel Wire Rod From
Trinidad and Tobago, 70 FR 39990 (July
12, 2005) (‘‘Preliminary Results’’).
We invited parties to comment on the
Preliminary Results. On July 26, 2005,
we extended the deadline for filing case
briefs and rebuttal briefs to August 26,
2005, and August 31, 2005, respectively.
On August 26, 2005, we received case
briefs from the sole respondent,
Carribean Ispat Limited (now known as
Mittal Steel Point Lisas Limited) and its
affiliates Ispat North America Inc. (now
known as Mittal Steel North America)
and Walker Wire (Ispat) Inc.
(collectively ‘‘CIL’’), and the petitioners:
ISG Georgetown Inc. (formerly

Ameristeel US Inc. (formerly Co–Steel
Raritan, Inc.), Keystone Consolidated
Industries, Inc., and North Star Steel
Texas, Inc. CIL and the petitioners
submitted rebuttal briefs on August 31,
2005.
On September 1, 2005, CIL submitted
a letter to the Department requesting
that the Department remove the
petitioners’ rebuttal brief because it
contained a new argument. On
September 6, 2005, we returned the
petitioners rebuttal brief filed with the
new argument. On September 9, 2005,
the petitioners submitted a letter
objecting to the Department’s rejection
of its rebuttal brief and also argued that
CIL submitted new information and new
arguments in its rebuttal brief. On
September 13, 2005, the petitioners
resubmitted its brief as requested by the
Department. On September 14, 2005, the
Department sent a letter to the
petitioners explaining that CIL’s rebuttal
brief only contained new information
with regards to the referenced website
and that the Department would
disregard any information referenced
from the website.
