Pittsburgh, PA, alleging that an industry
in the United States is materially
injured or threatened with material

subsidized imports of certain passenger
vehicle and light truck tires from China.
Accordingly, effective June 3, 2014, the
Commission instituted countervailing

antidumping duty investigation No.

of the Secretary, U.S. International
Trade Commission, Washington, DC,

Federal Register of June 9, 2014 (79 FR
32994). The conference was held in
Washington, DC, on June 24, 2014, and
all persons who requested the
opportunity were permitted to appear in
person or by counsel.
The Commission transmitted its
determinations in these investigations to
the Secretary of Commerce on August
15, 2014. The views of the Commission
are contained in USITC Publication
4482 (August 2014), entitled Certain
