The Department of Commerce claims that countervailable subsidies are
being provided to producers or exporters of certain durum wheat and
hard red spring wheat from Canada.
This includes, but is not limited to, a variety commonly referred to
as Canada Western Amber Durum, classified in the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States under subheadings: 1001.10.00.10,
1001.10.00.91, 1001.10.00.92, 1001.10.00.95, 1001.10.00.96, and
1001.10.00.99.
This also includes varieties of hard red spring wheat from Canada such
as Canada Western Red Spring, Canada Western Extra Strong, and Canada
Prairie Spring Red. These products are classified under
subheadings: 1001.90.10.00, 1001.90.20.05, 1001.90.20.11,
1001.90.20.12, 1001.90.20.13, 1001.90.20.14, 1001.90.20.16,
1001.90.20.19, 1001.90.20.21, 1001.90.20.22, 1001.90.20.23,
