B. REQUEST FOR REVIEW SUBMITTED BY THE UNITED STATES
6.4 The United States requests a drafting change to the final sentence of paragraph 7.2 of the
Interim Report in order to ensure that the sentence is not taken out of context and read as prejudging
the Panel's ruling. The Panel acknowledges that the sentence could be viewed as prejudging its ruling
and has made the proposed change.
6.5 The United States requests a number of modifications to the Interim Report so that it more
accurately reflects its submissions. In particular, the United States requests an amendment to
footnote 52 and to the first sentence of paragraph 7.8, the final sentence of paragraph 7.16 and the
second sentence of paragraph 7.30. The Panel is satisfied that the changes requested to footnote 52
and paragraphs 7.16 and 7.30 are consistent with the United States' submissions and the Panel has
amended them. The United States requests that the Panel amend the first sentence of paragraph 7.8 as
follows: "the United States submits that prior panel and Appellate Body reports are not binding on
panels or the Appellate Body in other disputes". However, in its written and oral submissions, the
United States does not refer to whether Appellate Body reports are binding on the Appellate Body in
other disputes. Therefore, the Panel has amended the first sentence of paragraph 7.8 to the extent it
remains consistent with the United States' submissions in this dispute.
6.6 In four paragraphs of the Interim Report in which the Panel refers variously to the
inconsistency of the "zeroing" methodology with Article 2.4.2 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement, the
United States requests that the Panel refer to the first sentence of Article 2.4.2, rather than
Article 2.4.2 in general. The Panel notes that the change suggested by the United States is consistent
with the arguments and the findings in this dispute. Therefore, the Panel has made the requested
modification.
