Effective February 12, 2001, the Commission instituted an investigation on U.S. market conditions for certain wool articles and established a deadline for the receipt of written submissions in connection with the preparation of the interim letter for USTR (see 66 FR 11315, Feb. 23, 2001). The Commission has changed the deadline for receiving written submissions from March 7, 2001 to 20 calendar days (or the next workday thereafter if the 20th day falls on a weekend or holiday) following the U.S. Department of Commerce's publication of a notice in the *Federal Register* soliciting requests from U.S. manufacturers of men's and boys' worsted wool suits, suit-type jackets, and trousers to modify the limitations on the quantity of imports of worsted wool fabrics under the TRQs provided for in HTS headings 9902.51.11 and 9902.51.12. The Commission's rules do not authorize filing of submissions with the Secretary by facsimile or electronic means.
Interested parties may monitor the Department of Commerce's release of its solicitation for requests by accessing the Department of Commerce's Internet server ( *http://otexa.ita.doc.gov* ).
