Counsel, U.S. International Trade

Commission, 500 E Street, SW.,

Hearing-impaired individuals are

advised that information on this matter

may be obtained by contacting the

Commission’s TDD terminal on 202–

205–1810.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Commission believes that Respondents

have justified the need for a closed

session. Respondents seek a closed

session to allow testimony on a

producer-specific basis and on

allegations of lost sales due to

competition with subject imports.

Because such discussions will

necessitate disclosure of business

proprietary information (BPI), they can

only occur if a portion of the hearing is

held in camera. In making this decision,

the Commission nevertheless reaffirms

its belief that whenever possible its

business should be conducted in public.

The hearing will include the usual

public presentations by petitioners and

by Respondents, with questions from
