EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Notice.)

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency Fees Notice (CFIA Fees Notice) sets out the fees that have been fixed by the Minister of Health under subsection 24(1) and section 25 of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency Act for services or the use of a facility provided by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) or in respect of products, rights and privileges provided by the CFIA.

As a result of the coming into force of the amendments to regulations for hatcheries, changes to services related to hatcheries in Part 11, Section 2 of the CFIA Fees Notice are required to align it with the updated language and requirements in the Health of Animals Regulations (HAR). The amendments fall into three main categories:

  1. Replace the term “permit” with “licence” to reflect the changes introduced through the regulations and to allow continued cost recovery for licences issued under the HAR and related activities.
  2. Remove services that will no longer be applicable under the amended regulations as well as services that are already no longer being undertaken by CFIA. Therefore, items 34, 36, 38(a) to 39 will be deleted. Item 38(b)(i) will be incorporated in item 38.
  3. Update wording, by replacing language taken from the existing hatchery regulations that will be repealed, with the wording found in the updated HAR with regard to testing requirements.

This is the first of two phases to update the CFIA Fees Notice as a result of amendments to regulations for hatchery. In this first phase, changes are to the wording only, changes to fee amounts are not being proposed through these amendments. CFIA will follow up with a second phase of updates to the CFIA Fees Notice for hatcheries, including consultation with stakeholders, of fee amounts and for the introduction of fees for licence renewals.

Since 2013, and until as recently as November 2021, CFIA has undertaken extensive engagement with stakeholders on amendments to the regulations for hatcheries. Stakeholders broadly support the regulatory proposal, recognizing the need to update the existing regulations.

EXPIRY REVIEW OF FINDING

Carbon and alloy steel line pipe

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal gives notice that, pursuant to subsection 76.03(1) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), it will initiate an expiry review (Expiry Review RR-2022-001) of its finding made on January 4, 2018, in inquiry NQ-2017-002, concerning the dumping of carbon and alloy steel line pipe, originating in or exported from the Republic of Korea (the subject goods), welded or seamless, having a nominal outside diameter from 2.375 inches (60.3 mm) up to and including 24 inches (610 mm) [with all dimensions being plus or minus allowable tolerances contained in the applicable standards], including line pipe meeting or supplied to meet any one or several of API 5L, CSA Z245.1, ISO 3183, ASTM A333, ASTM A106, ASTM A53-B or their equivalents, in all grades, whether or not meeting specifications for other end uses (e.g. single-, dual-, or multiple-certified, for use in oil and gas or other applications), and regardless of end finish (plain ends, beveled ends, threaded ends, or threaded and coupled ends), surface finish (coated or uncoated), wall thickness, or length, excluding galvanized line pipe and excluding stainless steel line pipe (containing 10.5% or more by weight of chromium), and excluding goods covered by the Tribunal’s finding in inquiry NQ-2012-003.

For greater certainty, the product definition includes

Furthermore, the Tribunal excluded from its finding, in inquiry NQ-2017-002, welded line pipe having nominal outside diameters from and including 18 inches to 24 inches (610 mm) [with all dimensions being plus or minus allowable tolerances contained in the applicable standards], regardless of grade and wall thickness, with a manganese content of no less than 16% by weight, for exclusive use in slurry, tailings, and pressure piping systems in oil sands projects, and marked “Not for CSA Z-662 Applications”. For greater certainty, use in a pipeline meeting CSA Z-662 is not permitted under this exclusion.

In this expiry review, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will first determine whether the expiry of the finding in respect of the subject goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods. If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the finding in respect of any goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will then determine if the continued or resumed dumping is likely to result in injury to the domestic industry. The CBSA will provide notice of its determination within 150 days after receiving notice of the Tribunal’s initiation of the expiry review, that is, no later than March 30, 2023. The Tribunal will issue its order and its statement of reasons no later than September 6, 2023.

Each person or government wishing to participate in this expiry review must file Form I—Notice of participation with the Tribunal, on or before November 15, 2022. Regarding the importance of the deadline to file a notice of participation, please read carefully the section titled “Support by domestic producers” in the document entitled “Additional information” appended to the notice available on the Tribunal’s website. Each counsel who intends to represent a party in the expiry review must file Form II—Notice of representation and Form III—Declaration and Undertaking with the Tribunal, on or before November 15, 2022. The Tribunal will issue a list of participants shortly thereafter.

On May 23, 2023, the Tribunal will distribute the record to participants. Counsel and self-represented participants are required to serve their respective submissions on each other on the dates outlined in the notice on the Tribunal’s website. Public submissions are to be served on counsel and those participants who are not represented by counsel. Confidential submissions are to be served only on counsel who have access to the confidential record, and who have filed Form III—Declaration and Undertaking with the Tribunal. This information will be included in the list of participants. One complete electronic version of all submissions must be filed with the Tribunal.

The Tribunal will hold a public hearing relating to this expiry review commencing on June 26, 2023. The type of hearing will be communicated at a later date. If there are no opposing parties, the Tribunal may explore the possibility of holding a file hearing, i.e. a hearing through written submissions only, instead of an oral hearing.

Written submissions, correspondence and requests for information regarding the Tribunal’s portion of this matter should be addressed to the Registry, Canadian International Trade Tribunal Secretariat, at citt-tcce@tribunal.gc.ca. The Registry can also be reached by telephone at 613‑993‑3595.
