following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and Commerce 
by Waterloo Industries Inc., Sedalia, Missouri. The final phase of the 
investigation was scheduled by the Commission following notification of 
a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of tool chests and 
cabinets from China were subsidized within the meaning of section

notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade 
Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal 
Register on September 25, 2017 (82 FR 44657). The hearing was held in 
Washington, DC, on November 28, 2017, and all persons who requested the 
opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission made this determination pursuant to section 705(b) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b)). It completed and filed its 
determination in this investigation on January 16, 2018. The views of 
the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4753 (January 2018),
