Monitoring of U.S. Imports of Tomatoes; Monitoring of U.S. Imports of Peppers

Résumé

The Commission hereby gives notice of its intention to publish the results of its monitoring of U.S. imports of tomatoes and U.S. imports of peppers, other than chili peppers, in November 2001. Although section 316 of the North American Free-Trade Agreement Implementation Act (NAFTA Implementation Act), 19 U.S.C. 3381, does not require that the Commission publish reports on the results of its monitoring activities, the initial notices of investigation for these studies indicated that the Commission planned to publish reports on the monitoring annually. Subsequently, the Commission has published statistical reports in those years in which it was not conducting an investigation under other statutory authority with respect to such products. The most recent monitoring reports were published in November 2000. For further information concerning the conduct of these investigations and rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 201).
