scale wind towers from China and the antidumping duty orders on utility 
scale wind towers from China and Vietnam would be likely to lead to 
continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the 
United States within a reasonably foreseeable time.\2\

    \1\ The record is defined in sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's

Background

    The Commission, pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1675(c)), instituted these reviews on January 2, 2018 (83 FR 142) and 
determined on April 9, 2018 that it would conduct full reviews (83 FR 
17446, April 19, 2018). Notice of the scheduling of the Commission's 
reviews 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 September 13, 2018 (83 FR 46516). 
Effective February 4, 2019, the Commission revised its schedule due to 
the lapse in appropriations and ensuing cessation of Commission 
operations (84 FR 2926, February 8, 2019). The Commission cancelled the 
hearing scheduled on February 28, 2019 following a request by the sole 
party to the proceeding (84 FR 7934, March 5, 2019). In lieu of a 
hearing, the domestic producers responded to written questions 
submitted by the Commission as part of their posthearing brief.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to section 751(c) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)). It

completed and filed its determinations in these reviews on May 2, 2019.
