Background
On April 11, 2017, Waterloo Industries, Inc., Sedalia, Missouri filed a petition with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United States is materially injured or threatened with material injury by reason of LTFV and subsidized imports of tool chests and cabinets from China and LTFV imports of tool chests and cabinets from Vietnam. Accordingly, effective April 11, 2017, 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-575 and antidumping duty investigations Nos. 731-TA-1360-1361 (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 April 18, 2017 (82 FR 18309). The conference was held in Washington, DC, on May 2, 2017, 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 and filed its determinations in these investigations on May 26, 2017. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4697 (June 2017), entitled Tool Chests and Cabinets from China and Vietnam: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-575 and 731-TA-1360-1361 (Preliminary).
