    The United States International Trade Commission announced the cancellation of a scheduled public hearing related to the five-year reviews of polyvinyl alcohol imports from China and Japan. The cancellation was requested by the domestic producers' counsel because no other parties requested to appear. The hearing was initially set to occur on February 2, 2021, but instead, parties involved in the reviews are expected to address any questions in their written responses due on February 10, 2021. The reviews are conducted under the Tariff Act of 1930 and follow the Commission's rules of practice.

    Simple Explanation

    The International Trade Commission decided not to have a meeting about checking on a type of material called polyvinyl alcohol from China and Japan because the people in the U.S. who make it didn't ask for a talk, and nobody else wanted to join in. Instead, these groups will answer questions through papers they write.

    The Pecan Promotion, Research, and Information Order was established to help boost the pecan industry in the United States. It introduces a system to collect assessments from producers and importers to fund marketing campaigns and research aimed at increasing demand for pecans. The rule sets up a governing Board to oversee these activities and requires a referendum after three years to decide on the continuation of the order. While most of the industry supports this program, there are concerns about the financial burden on producers due to existing marketing orders.

    Simple Explanation

    The government made a rule to help people buy more pecans by creating advertisements and research projects. Pecan growers and sellers will help pay for this, and in three years, they will vote to decide if they want to keep doing it.
