As noted several times by this Court in previous opinions, a number of actions were consolidated by order of the Court of International Trade on February 4, 1994. See British Steel plc v. United States, 879 F.Supp. 1254, 1261-62 (CIT 1995) ( British Steel I ), appeals docketed, Nos. 96-1401 to -06 (Fed.Cir. June 21, 1996); British Steel plc v. United States, 924 F.Supp. 139, 146 (CIT 1996) ( British Steel II ), appeals docketed, Nos. 96-1401 to -06 (Fed.Cir. June 21, 1996); British Steel plc v. United States, 929 F.Supp. 426, 430-31 (CIT 1996) ( British Steel III ). 1 After a scheduling conference with the parties, the Court entered a scheduling order applying to all of the consolidated cases. See British Steel I, 879 F.Supp. at 1262. The scheduling order required parties to brief jointly five general issues, consisting essentially of privatization, allocation methodology, grant methodology, sales denominator, and disproportionality. That aspect of the proceeding was dubbed the "general issues" proceeding, and the Court used British Steel plc v. United States, Consol. Court No. 93-09-00550-CVD, and the case caption used in this opinion, to identify it. The scheduling order also provided for parties briefing issues specific to their respective cases; i.e., "country-specific" briefing.
On February 9, 1995, this Court issued an opinion addressing all five general issues, including the issue of disproportionality which this Court remanded. See id. at 1320-28. On October 17, 1995, this Court held two oral arguments. The first concerned the disproportionality remand, and the second concerned issues raised by the parties' briefing in the Korean country-specific action, Laclede Steel Co, et al. v. United States, Consol. Court No. 93-09-00569-CVD. The present opinion addresses both the remand on the general issue of disproportionality as well as issues raised by the parties' motions in Laclede Steel. Familiarity with this Court's opinion in British Steel I, remanding Certain Steel Products from Korea, 58 Fed.Reg. 37,338 (Dep't Comm.1993) (final determ.) ( Korean Final Determination ), is presumed.
Dongbu Steel Company, Ltd. (Dongbu), Pohang Iron & Steel Company, Ltd. (POSCO), Pohang Coated Steel Company, Ltd. (POCOS), Pohang Steel Industries Company, Ltd. (PSI), and Union Steel Industries Company, Ltd. (Union) (collectively "Respondents") oppose the Department of Commerce's ("Commerce" or "Department") disproportionality remand determination, Final Results of Redetermination Pursuant to Court Remand British Steel plc v. United States Slip Op. 95-17 (Feb. 9, 1995) ( Redetermination ). Laclede Steel Company, AK Steel Corporation, Geneva Steel, Bethlehem Steel Corporation, Gulf States Steel, Incorporated of Alabama, Inland Steel Industries, Incorporated, LTV Steel Company, Incorporated, Lukens Steel Company, National Steel Corporation, Sharon Steel Corporation, U.S. Steel Group a Unit of USX Corporation, and WCI Steel, Incorporated (collectively "Domestics" or "Domestic Producers") support Commerce's Redetermination.
Respondents have also filed briefs under the country-specific Laclede Steel action challenging six aspects of the Korean Final Determination. Domestic Producers challenge two aspects of the Korean Final Determination in their country-specific Laclede Steel briefs.
