States, that are alleged to be sold in the United States at less than

Commencement of Final Phase Investigation

    Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the 
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of 
its investigation. 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 U.S. 
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of an affirmative preliminary 
determination in the investigation under Sec.  733(b) of the Act, or, 
if the preliminary determination is negative, upon notice of an 
affirmative final determination in that investigation under Sec.  
735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed entries of appearance in the 
preliminary phase of the investigation need not enter a separate 
appearance for the final phase of the investigation. Any other party 
may file an entry of appearance for the final phase of the 
investigation after publication of the final phase notice of 
scheduling. 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 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 investigation. As provided in 
section 207.20 of the Commission's rules, the Director of the Office of 
Investigations will circulate draft questionnaires for the final phase 
of the investigation to parties to the investigation, placing copies on 
the Commission's Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>), for comment.
