8482.91, and 8482.99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United 
States, that are alleged to be sold in the United States at less than 
fair value (``LTFV'').\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 Meredith M. Broadbent dissenting.

Background

    On June 28, 2017, The Timken Company, North Canton, Ohio, filed a 
petition with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry in 
the United States is materially injured by reason of LTFV imports of 
tapered roller bearings from Korea. Accordingly, effective June 28, 
2017, the Commission, pursuant to section 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1673b(a)), instituted antidumping duty investigation No. 731-TA-1380 
(Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigation 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 July 5, 2017 (82 FR 31067). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on July 19, 2017, and all 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in 
person or by counsel.
    The Commission made this determination pursuant to section 733(a) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(a)). It completed and filed its 
determination in this investigation on August 14, 2017. The views of 
the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4721 (August 2017), 
entitled Tapered Roller Bearings from Korea: Investigation No. 731-TA-
1380 (Preliminary).

    By order of the Commission.
