INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-545-547 and 731-TA-1291-1297 (Preliminary)]


Certain Hot-Rolled Steel Flat Products From Australia, Brazil, 
Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Turkey, and the United Kingdom: 
Determinations

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission 
(``Commission'') determines,\2\ pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 
(``the Act''), that there is a reasonable indication that an industry 
in the United States is materially injured by reason of imports of 
certain hot-rolled steel flat products (``hot-rolled steel'') from 
Australia, Brazil, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Turkey, and the 
United Kingdom, provided for in subheadings 7208.10.15, 7208.10.30, 
7208.10.60, 7208.25.30, 7208.25.60, 7208.26.00, 7208.27.00, 7208.36.00,

7226.99.01, and 7228.60.60 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States, that are allegedly sold in the United States at less 
than fair value (``LTFV''), and by imports of hot-rolled steel that are 
allegedly subsidized by the governments of Brazil, Korea, and Turkey.

    \1\ The record is defined in sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's 
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
    \2\ Commissioner F. Scott Kieff not participating.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commencement of Final Phase Investigations

    Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the 
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of 
its investigations. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of 
scheduling, which will be

[[Page 58788]]

published in the Federal Register as provided in section 207.21 of the 
Commission's rules, upon notice from the Department of Commerce 
(``Commerce'') of affirmative preliminary determinations in the 
investigations under sections 703(b) or 733(b) of the Act, or, if the 
preliminary determinations are negative, upon notice of affirmative 
final determinations in those investigations under sections 705(a) or 
735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed entries of appearance in the 
preliminary phase of the investigations need not enter a separate 
appearance for the final phase of the investigations. Industrial users, 
and, if the merchandise under investigation is sold at the retail 
level, representative consumer organizations have the right to appear 
as parties in Commission antidumping and countervailing duty 
investigations. The Secretary will prepare a public service list 
containing the names and addresses of all persons, or their 
representatives, who are parties to the investigations.

Background

    On August 11, 2015, AK Steel Corporation (West Chester, Ohio), 
ArcelorMittal USA, LLC (Chicago, Illinois), Nucor Corporation 
(Charlotte, North Carolina), SSAB Enterprises, LLC (Lisle, Illinois), 
Steel Dynamics, Inc. (Fort Wayne, Indiana), and United States Steel 
Corporation (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) filed a petition with the 
Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United States 
is materially injured or threatened with material injury by reason of 
subsidized imports of hot-rolled steel from Brazil, Korea, and Turkey 
and LTFV imports of hot-rolled steel from Australia, Brazil, Japan, 
Korea, the Netherlands, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. Accordingly, 
effective August 11, 2015, the Commission, pursuant to sections 703(a) 
and 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)), 
instituted countervailing duty investigation Nos. 701-TA-545-547 and 
antidumping duty investigation Nos. 731-TA-1291-1297 (Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of 
a public conference to be held in connection therewith was given by 
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the 
notice in the Federal Register of August 18, 2015 (80 FR 50028). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on September 1, 2015 and all 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in 
person or by counsel.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to sections 
703(a) and 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 
1673b(a)). It completed and filed its determinations in these 
investigations on September 25, 2015. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 4570 (October 2015), entitled Certain 
Hot-Rolled Steel Flat Products from Australia, Brazil, Japan, Korea, 
the Netherlands, Turkey, and the United Kingdom: Investigation Nos. 
701-TA-545-547 and 731-TA-1291-1297 (Preliminary).

    By order of the Commission.

     Issued: September 25, 2015.

Secretary to the Commission.
