2009, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by American Spring Wire Corp. (Bedford Heights, OH); Insteel 
Wire Products Co. (Mt. Airy, NC); and Sumiden Wire Products Corp. 
(Dickson, TN). The final phase of the investigations was scheduled by 
the Commission following notification of preliminary determinations by 
Commerce that imports of PC strand from China were being subsidized and 
sold at LTFV within the meaning of sections 703(b) and 733(b) of the 
Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b) and 1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the 
final phase 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 February 23, 2010 (75 FR 8113). The hearing was held in 
Washington, DC, on May 6, 2010, and all persons who requested the

investigations to the Secretary of Commerce on June 22, 2010. The views
