摘要

The Commission hereby gives notice of the institution of investigations and commencement of preliminary phase antidumping Investigations Nos. 731-TA-753-756 (Preliminary) under section 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1673b(a)) (the Act) to determine whether there is a reasonable indication that an industry in the United States is materially injured or threatened with material injury, or the establishment of an industry in the United States is materially retarded, by reason of imports of cut-to-length carbon steel plate 1 from China, Russia, South Africa, and Ukraine provided for in provisions of headings 7208 through 7212 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that are alleged to be sold in the United States at less than fair value. Unless the Department of Commerce extends the time for initiation pursuant to section 732(c)(1)(B) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673a(c)(1)(B)), the Commission must reach a preliminary determination in antidumping investigations in 45 days, or in this case by December 20, 1996. The Commission's views are due at the Department of Commerce within five business days thereafter, or by December 30, 1996. --------------------------------
