Counsel, U.S. International Trade

Commission, telephone 202–205–3117,

e-mail grizzo@usitc.gov. Hearingimpaired individuals are advised that

information on this matter may be

obtained by contacting the

Commission’s TDD terminal on 202–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Commission believes that Indo-Rama

has justified the need for a closed

session. In this review, significant data

for both the foreign and domestic

industries are business proprietary.

Indo-Rama seeks a closed session in

order to fully address the issues before

the Commission without referring to

business proprietary information. In

making this decision, the Commission

nevertheless reaffirms its belief that

whenever possible its business should

be conducted in public.

The hearing will begin with public

presentations by Penn Speciality

Chemicals (‘‘PSC’’), a domestic producer

opposing revocation of the antidumping

duty order, followed by foreign

respondents in support of revocation.

During the public session, the

Commission may question the parties

following their respective presentations.

Next, the hearing will include a 10-

minute in camera session for a

confidential presentation by Indo-Rama

and for questions from the Commission

relating to the BPI, followed by a 10-

minute in camera rebuttal presentation

by PSC. For any in camera session the

room will be cleared of all persons

except those who have been granted

access to BPI under a Commission

administrative protective order (APO)

and are included on the Commission’s

APO service list in these investigations.

See 19 CFR 201.35(b)(1), (2). The time

for the parties’ presentations and

rebuttals in the in camera session will

be taken from their respective overall

time allotments for the hearing. All

persons planning to attend the in

camera portions of the hearing should

be prepared to present proper

identification.

Authority: The General Counsel has

certified, pursuant to Commission Rule

201.39 (19 CFR 201.39) that a portion of the

Commission’s hearing in Furfuryl Alcohol

from China and Thailand, Inv Nos. 731–TA–

703 and 705 (Review), may be closed to the

public to prevent the disclosure of BPI.

Issued: February 28, 2001.

By order of the Commission.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE

COMMISSION

[Investigations Nos. 731–TA–919–920

(Preliminary)]

Certain Welded Large Diameter Line

Pipe from Japan and Mexico

Determinations

On the basis of the record 1 developed

in the subject investigations, the United

States International Trade Commission

determines, pursuant to section 733(a)

of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.

1673b(a)), that there is a reasonable

indication that an industry in the

United States is materially injured by

reason of imports from Japan and

Mexico of certain welded large diameter

line pipe,2 that are alleged to be sold in

the United States at less than fair value

(LTFV).

Commencement of Final Phase

Investigations

Pursuant to section 207.18 of the

Commission’s rules, the Commission

also gives notice of the commencement

of the final phase of its investigations.

The Commission will issue a final phase

notice of scheduling which will be

published in the Federal Register as

provided in section 207.21 of the

Commission’s rules upon notice from

the Department of Commerce

(Commerce) of affirmative preliminary

determinations in the investigations

under section 733(b) of the Act, or, if the

preliminary determinations are

negative, upon notice of affirmative

final determinations in those

investigations under section 735(a) of

the Act. Parties that filed entries of

appearance in the preliminary phase of

the investigations need not enter a

separate appearance for the final phase

of the investigations. Industrial users,

and, if the merchandise under

investigation is sold at the retail level,

representative consumer organizations

have the right to appear as parties in

Commission antidumping and

countervailing duty investigations. The

Secretary will prepare a public service

list containing the names and addresses

of all persons, or their representatives,

who are parties to the investigations.

Background

On January 10, 2001, a petition was

filed with the Commission and the

Department of Commerce by Berg Steel

Pipe Corp., Panama City, FL; American

Steel Pipe Division of American Cast

Iron Pipe Co., Birmingham, AL; and

Stupp Corp., Baton Rouge, LA; alleging

that an industry in the United States is

materially injured by reason of LTFV

imports of certain welded large diameter

line pipe from Japan and Mexico.

Accordingly, effective January 10, 2001,

the Commission instituted antidumping

duty investigations Nos. 731–TA–919–

920 (Preliminary).
