701-TA-560-561 and 731-TA-1317-1328 (Final) pursuant to the Tariff Act 
of 1930 (``the Act'') to determine whether an industry in the United 
States is materially injured or threatened with material injury, or the 
establishment of an industry in the United States is materially 
retarded, by reason of imports of carbon and alloy steel cut-to-length 
plate from Austria, Belgium, Brazil, China, France, Germany, Italy, 
Japan, Korea, South Africa, Taiwan, and Turkey, provided for in 
subheadings 7208.40.30, 7208.40.60, 7208.51.00, 7208.51.00, 7208.52.00,

7226.91.80, and 7226.99.01, of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States.\1\ The Department of Commerce has preliminarily 
determined such imports from China to be subsidized and such imports 
from Brazil, South Africa, and Turkey to be sold at less-than-fair-
value.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ For purposes of these investigations, the Department of 
Commerce (``Commerce'') has defined the subject merchandise as 
certain carbon and alloy steel hot-rolled or forged flat plate 
products not in coils, whether or not painted, varnished, or coated 
with plastics or other non-metallic substances (cut-to-length 
plate). Subject merchandise includes plate that is produced by being 
cut-to-length from coils or from other discrete length plate and 
plate that is rolled or forged into a discrete length. The products 
covered include (1) Universal mill plates (i.e., flat-rolled 
products rolled on four faces or in a closed box pass, of a width 
exceeding 150 mm but not exceeding 1250 mm, and of a thickness of 
not less than 4 mm, which are not in coils and without patterns in 
relief), and (2) hot-rolled or forged flat steel products of a 
thickness of 4.75 mm or more and of a width which exceeds 150 mm and 
measures at least twice the thickness, and which are not in coils, 
whether or not with patterns in relief. The covered products 
described above may be rectangular, square, circular or other shapes 
and include products of either rectangular or non-rectangular cross-
section where such non-rectangular cross-section is achieved 
subsequent to the rolling process, i.e., products which have been 
``worked after rolling'', (e.g., products which have been beveled or 
rounded at the edges). For a full description of Commerce's scope, 
see Certain Carbon and Alloy Steel Cur-to-Length Plate from Austria, 
Belgium, Brazil, the People's Republic of China, France, the Federal 
Republic of Germany, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the 
Republic of South Africa, Taiwan, and Turkey: Scope Comments 
Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Determinations, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, September 6, 2016.
    \2\ On September 13, 2016, Commerce published its preliminary 
affirmative countervailing duty determination on imports from China 
(81 FR 62871, September 13, 2016). On September 14, 2016, Commerce 
published its preliminary negative countervailing duty determination 
on imports from Korea (81 FR 63168, September 14, 2016). On 
September 16, 2016, Commerce notified the Commission regarding its 
preliminary affirmative antidumping duty determinations on imports 
from Brazil, South Africa, and Turkey (Letter to Chairman Irving A. 
Williamson from Christian Marsh, International Trade Administration, 
U.S. Department of Commerce, September 16, 2016).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--The final phase of these 
investigations is being scheduled pursuant to sections 705(b) and 
731(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 1673d(b)), as 
a result of affirmative preliminary determinations by the Department of 
Commerce that certain benefits which constitute subsidies within the 
meaning of section 703 of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b) are being provided 
to manufacturers, producers, or exporters in China of carbon and alloy 
steel cut-to-length plate, and that such products from Brazil, South 
Africa, and Turkey are being sold in the United States at less than 
fair value within the meaning of section 733 of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1673b).\3\ The investigations were requested in petitions filed on 
April 8, 2016, by ArcelorMittal USA LLC (Chicago, Illinois), Nucor 
Corporation (Charlotte, North Carolina), and SSAB Enterprises, LLC 
(Lisle, Illinois).
