    The Commission instituted these investigations effective September 
23, 2009, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Appleton Coated, LLC, Kimberly, WI; NewPage Corp., 
Miamisburg, OH; Sappi Fine Paper North America, Boston, MA; and the 
United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber Manufacturing, Energy, Allied 
Industrial and Service Workers International Union (``USW''). The final 
phase of the investigations was scheduled by the Commission following 
notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of 
certain coated paper from China and Indonesia were subsidized by the 
Governments of China and Indonesia within the meaning of section 703(b) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and dumped within the meaning of 733(b) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 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 on 
May 25, 2010 (75 FR 29364). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, on 
September 16, 2010, and all persons who requested the opportunity were 
permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determinations in these 
investigations to the Secretary of Commerce on November 10, 2010. The 
views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4192 
(November 2010), entitled Certain Coated Paper Suitable for High-
