Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective August 18, 
2000, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Slater Steels Corp., Specialty Alloys Division, Fort Wayne, 
IN, and the United Steelworkers of America, AFL-CIO/CLC, Pittsburgh, 
PA. The final phase of the investigations was scheduled by the 
Commission following notification of preliminary determinations by 
Commerce that imports of stainless steel angle from Japan, Korea, and 
Spain were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 733(b) of 
the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the 
Commission's investigations and of a public hearing to be held in 
connection therewith was given by posting copies of the notice in the 
Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, 
Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal Register of 
January 26, 2001 (66 FR 7942). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, 
on March 27, 2001, and all persons who requested the opportunity were 
permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determination in these 
investigations to the Secretary of Commerce on May 11, 2001. The views 
of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 3421 (May 2001), 
entitled Stainless Steel Angle from Japan, Korea, and Spain: 
Investigations Nos. 731-TA-888-890 (Final).

    Issued: May 14, 2001.
    By order of the Commission.
