1The record is defined in sec. 207.2(f) of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 

CFR 207.2(f)). 

2All six Commissioners voted in the affirmative. 

The Commission also finds that imports subject to 

Commerce’s affirmative critical circumstances 

determinations are not likely to undermine 

seriously the remedial effect of the antidumping 

duty order on rebar from Mexico and the 

countervailing duty order on rebar from Turkey. 

3On February 26, 2014, Commerce preliminarily 

determined that imports of rebar from Turkey were 

not subsidized within the meaning of section 703(b) 

of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) (79 FR 10771). On 

April 24, 2014, Commerce preliminarily determined 

that imports of rebar from Mexico and Turkey were 

dumped within the meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 

U.S.C. 1673b(b)) (79 FR 22802–22804). On 

September 15, 2014, Commerce published notice of 

its final affirmative determination of 

countervailable subsidies for producers and 

exporters of rebar from Turkey (79 FR 54963), its 

final affirmative determination of sales at less than 

fair value with respect to imports from Mexico (79 

FR 54967), and its final negative determination of 

sales at less than fair value with respect to imports 

from Turkey (79 FR 54965).

Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar From 

Mexico and Turkey; Determinations 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject investigations, the United 

States International Trade Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant 

to sections 705(b) and 735(b) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b)) 

and (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)) (‘‘the Act’’), 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of imports 

from Mexico of steel concrete 

reinforcing bar (‘‘rebar’’) that have been 

found by the Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) to be sold in the United 

States at less than fair value, and by 

reason of imports from Turkey of rebar 

that have been found by Commerce to 

be subsidized by the government of 

Turkey. The subject merchandise is 

provided for primarily in subheadings 

7213.10.00 and 7214.20.00 and 

statistical reporting number 

7228.30.8010 of the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States.2

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.— On December 8, 1978, 

the Department of the Treasury issued 

an antidumping finding on imports of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Japan (43 FR 57599). Following 

five-year reviews by Commerce and the 

Commission, effective February 3, 1999, 

Commerce issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Japan (64 FR 40554, July 27, 1999). 

Following second five-year reviews by 

Commerce and the Commission, 

effective June 25, 2004, Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Japan (69 FR 35584). On January 

28, 2004, the Department of Commerce 

issued antidumping duty orders on 

imports of prestressed concrete steel 

wire strand from Brazil, India, Korea, 

Mexico, and Thailand (69 FR 4109– 

4113). On February 4, 2004, the 

Department of Commerce issued a 

countervailing duty order on imports of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from India (69 FR 5319). Following the 

third five-year review of the finding on 

imports of prestressed concrete steel 

wire strand from Japan and the first fiveyear reviews of the orders on imports of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Brazil, India, Korea, Mexico, and 

Thailand by Commerce and the 

Commission, effective December 11, 

2009, Commerce issued a continuation 

of the antidumping duty orders on 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Brazil, India, Korea, Mexico, and 

Thailand, and the antidumping finding 

on prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

from Japan, as well as the countervailing 

duty order on prestressed concrete steel 

wire strand from India (74 FR 65739). 

The Commission is now conducting a 

fourth review of the antidumping 

finding concerning Japan and a second 

review of the orders concerning Brazil, 

India, Korea, Mexico, and Thailand to 

determine whether revocation would be 

likely to lead to continuation or 

recurrence of material injury to the 

domestic industry within a reasonably 

foreseeable time. It will assess the 

adequacy of interested party responses 

to this notice of institution to determine 

whether to conduct full or expedited 

reviews. The Commission’s 

determinations in any expedited 

reviews will be based on the facts 

available, which may include 

information provided in response to this 

notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to these reviews: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

scope of the five-year reviews, as 

defined by the Department of 

Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Countries in these 

reviews are Brazil, India, Japan, Korea, 

Mexico, and Thailand. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its expedited 

first and second five-year reviews of the 

antidumping duty order concerning 

Japan, the Commission found that the 

appropriate definition of the Domestic 

Like Product was the same as 

Commerce’s scope: All steel wire strand, 

other than alloy steel, not galvanized, 

which has been stress-relieved and is 

suitable for use in prestressed concrete. 

The Commission did not make a like 

product determination in its original 

determination concerning Japan. In its 

original determinations concerning 

Brazil, India, Korea, Mexico, and 

Thailand, the Commission found the 

Domestic Like Product to be all 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand 

co-extensive with Commerce’s scope, 

that is, steel strand produced from wire 

of non-stainless, non-galvanized steel 

that is suitable for use in prestressed 

concrete (both pre-tensioned and posttensioned) applications and that 

encompasses covered and uncovered 

strand and all types, grades, and 

diameters of prestressed concrete steel 

wire strand. In its most recent full fiveyear review determinations, the 

Commission defined the Domestic Like 

Product to encompass steel strand 

produced from wire of non-stainless, 

non-galvanized steel, which is suitable 

for use in prestressed concrete (both 

pre-tensioned and post-tensioned) 

applications and that encompasses 

covered and uncovered strand and all 

types, grades, and diameters of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand. 

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. 

producers as a whole of the Domestic 

Like Product, or those producers whose 

collective output of the Domestic Like 

Product constitutes a major proportion 

of the total domestic production of the 

product. In its original determination 

and its expedited first and second 

reviews of the antidumping duty order 

concerning Japan, the Commission 

defined the Domestic Industry as all 

producers of prestressed concrete steel 

wire strand. Likewise, in its original 

determinations concerning Brazil, India, 

Korea, Mexico, and Thailand, the 

Commission found the Domestic 

Industry to be all producers of 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand. 

The Commission also determined that 

plastic coating did not constitute 

sufficient production-related activity to 

qualify coaters as members of the 

domestic industry producing 

prestressed concrete steel wire strand. 

In its most recent full five-year review 

determinations, the Commission 

defined the Domestic Industry to 

include all producers of the Domestic 

Like Product. 

(5) An Importer is any person or firm 

engaged, either directly or through a 

parent company or subsidiary, in 

importing the Subject Merchandise into 

the United States from a foreign 

manufacturer or through its selling 

agent. 

Participation in the proceeding and 

public service list.—Persons, including 

industrial users of the Subject 

Merchandise and, if the merchandise is 

sold at the retail level, representative 

consumer organizations, wishing to 

participate in the proceeding as parties 

must file an entry of appearance with 

the Secretary to the Commission, as 

provided in section 201.11(b)(4) of the 

Commission’s rules, no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. The Secretary will 

maintain a public service list containing 

the names and addresses of all persons, 

or their representatives, who are parties 

to the proceeding. 

Former Commission employees who 

are seeking to appear in Commission 

five-year reviews are advised that they 

may appear in a review even if they 

participated personally and 

substantially in the corresponding 

underlying original investigation or an 

earlier review of the same underlying 

investigation. The Commission’s 

designated agency ethics official has 

advised that a five-year review is not the 

same particular matter as the underlying 

original investigation, and a five-year 

review is not the same particular matter 

as an earlier review of the same 

underlying investigation for purposes of

Consequently, former employees are not 

required to seek Commission approval 

to appear in a review under Commission 

rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the 

corresponding underlying original 

investigation or an earlier review of the 

same underlying investigation was 

pending when they were Commission 

employees. For further ethics advice on 

this matter, contact Carol McCue

207.3 of the Commission’s rules, any 

person submitting information to the 

Commission in connection with this 

proceeding must certify that the 

information is accurate and complete to 

the best of the submitter’s knowledge. In 

making the certification, the submitter 

will be deemed to consent, unless 

otherwise specified, for the 

Commission, its employees, and 

contract personnel to use the 

information provided in any other 

reviews or investigations of the same or 

comparable products which the 

Commission conducts under Title VII of 

the Act, or in internal audits and 

investigations relating to the programs 

and operations of the Commission 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. Appendix 3. 

Written submissions.—Pursuant to 

section 207.61 of the Commission’s 

rules, each interested party response to 

this notice must provide the information 

specified below. The deadline for filing 

such responses is December 3, 2014. 

Pursuant to section 207.62(b) of the 

Commission’s rules, eligible parties (as 

specified in Commission rule 

207.62(b)(1)) may also file comments 

concerning the adequacy of responses to 

the notice of institution and whether the 

Commission should conduct expedited 

or full reviews. The deadline for filing 

such comments is January 16, 2015. All

equivalent information. If an interested 

party does not provide this notification 

(or the Commission finds the 

explanation provided in the notification 

inadequate) and fails to provide a 

complete response to this notice, the 

Commission may take an adverse 

inference against the party pursuant to 

section 776(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 

1677e(b)) in making its determinations 

in the reviews.
