INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 731-TA-859 (Final)]


Circular Seamless Stainless Steel Hollow Products From Japan; 
Notice of Commission Determination not to Conduct a Portion of the 
Hearing in Camera

AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Commission determination not to close any part of the hearing 
to the public.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission has determined to deny the requests of 
respondents to conduct a portion of its hearing in the above-captioned 
reviews scheduled for July 12, 2000, in camera. See Commission rules 
201.13 and 201.36(b)(4) (19 CFR Secs. 201.13 and 201.36(b)(4)).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rhonda M. Hughes, Office of General 
Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, telephone 202-205-3103, 
e-mail [email protected]. 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's policy and practice is to 
conduct its hearings in public in all but the most unusual 
circumstances. See 19 CFR Sec. 201.36. The Commission has determined 
that, in light of the nature of this investigation, it will be able to 
assess adequately all arguments raised by the parties without resorting 
to the extraordinary measure of an in camera hearing. Accordingly, the 
Commission has determined that the public interest would be best served 
by a hearing that is entirely open to the public. See 19 CFR 
Sec. 201.36(c)(1).

    Authority:  This notice is provided pursuant to Commission Rule 
201.35(b) (19 CFR 201.35(b)).

    Issued: July 10, 2000.

    By order of the Commission.
Donna R. Koehnke,
Secretary.
