by the government of China.\2\

Commencement of Final Phase Investigations

    Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the 
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of 
its investigations. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of 
scheduling, which will be published in the Federal Register as provided 
in section 207.21 of the Commission's rules, upon notice from the U.S. 
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of affirmative preliminary 
determinations in the investigations under sections 703(b) or 733(b) of 
the Act, or, if the preliminary determinations are negative, upon 
notice of affirmative final determinations in those investigations 
under sections 705(a) or 735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed entries 
of appearance in the preliminary phase of the investigations need not 
enter a separate appearance for the final phase of the investigations. 
Industrial users, and, if the merchandise under investigation is sold 
at the retail level, representative consumer organizations have the 
right to appear as parties in Commission antidumping and countervailing 
duty investigations. The Secretary will prepare a public service list 
containing the names and addresses of all persons, or their 
representatives, who are parties to the investigations.

Background

    On March 6, 2019, the American Kitchen Cabinet Alliance filed 
petitions with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry 
in the United States is materially injured or threatened with material 
injury by reason of subsidized imports of wooden cabinets and vanities 
from China and LTFV imports of wooden cabinet and vanities from China. 
Accordingly, effective March 6, 2019, the Commission, pursuant to 
sections 703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 
1673b(a)), instituted countervailing duty investigation No. 701-TA-620 
and antidumping duty investigation No. 731-TA-1445 (Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of 
a public conference 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 March 12, 2019 (84 FR 8890). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on March 27, 2019, and all 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in 
person or by counsel.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to sections 
703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)). It 
completed
