Re: Consummated Acquisition of Griffin Pipe Products Co. by U.S. Pipe and Foundry 

Co., LLC, File No. 141 0090

Dear Mr. Mutchnik:

The Federal Trade Commission’s Bureau of Competition has been conducting a 

nonpublic investigation to determine whether the consummated acquisition of Griffin Pipe 

Products Co. by U.S. Pipe Holdings, Inc., is in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade 

Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45, as amended; to determine whether the aforesaid acquisition is 

in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. § 18, as amended, or Section 5 of the 

Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45, as amended; and to determine whether the 

requirements of Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. § 18a, have been or will be fulfilled 

with respect to said transaction.

Upon further review of this matter, it now appears that no further action is warranted by 

the Commission at this time. Accordingly, the investigation has been closed. This action is not 

to be construed as a determination that a violation may not have occurred, just as the pendency of 

an investigation should not be construed as a determination that a violation has occurred. The 

Commission reserves the right to take such further action as the public interest may require.

By direction of the Commission.
