Background

    The Commission instituted this investigation effective June 27, 
2013, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by All America Threaded Products Inc., Denver, Colorado; Bay 
Standard Manufacturing Inc., Brentwood, California; and Vulcan Threaded 
Products Inc., Pelham, Alabama. The final phase of the investigation 
was scheduled by the Commission following notification of a preliminary 
determination by Commerce that imports of certain steel threaded rod 
from Thailand 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 
final phase of the Commission's investigation 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 17, 2014 (79 FR 3245). The hearing was held in 
Washington, DC, on March 20, 2014, and all persons who requested the 
opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission completed and filed its determination in this 
investigation on May 1, 2014. The views of the Commission are contained 
in USITC Publication 4462 (May 2014), entitled Steel Threaded Rod from 
Thailand: Investigation No. 731-TA-1214 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.
