Cold-Rolled Steel Flat Products From
Brazil, India, Korea, Russia, and the
United Kingdom; Determinations
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject investigations, the United
States International Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant
to the Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’),
that an industry in the United States is
materially injured by reason of imports
of cold-rolled steel flat products from
Brazil, India, Korea, and the United
Kingdom, provided for in subheadings
7209.15, 7209.16, 7209.17, 7209.18,
7209.25, 7209.26, 7209.27, 7209.28,
7209.90, 7210.70, 7211.23, 7211.29,
7211.90, 7212.40, 7225.50, 7225.99, and
7226.92 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States, that have
been found by the Department of
Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) to be sold in
the United States at less than fair value
(‘‘LTFV’’), and to be subsidized by the
governments of Brazil and Korea. The
Commission further determines that an
industry in the United States is
threatened with material injury by
reason of imports of cold-rolled steel flat
products that have been found by
Commerce to be subsidized by the
government of India.2 The Commission
also determines that imports of coldrolled steel flat products from Russia
that are sold in the United States at
LTFV and subsidized by the government
of Russia are negligible.
1 The record is defined in sec. 207.2(f) of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19
CFR 207.2(f)).
2 Commissioner F. Scott Kieff dissenting.
Commissioner Kieff determines that imports
subsidized by the government of India are
negligible.

Background
The Commission, pursuant to sections
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)),
instituted these investigations effective
July 28, 2015, following receipt of a
petition filed with the Commission and
Commerce by AK Steel Corporation
(West Chester, Ohio), ArcelorMittal
USA LLC (Chicago, Illinois), Nucor
Corporation (Charlotte, North Carolina),
Steel Dynamics, Inc. (Fort Wayne,
Indiana), and United States Steel
Corporation (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania).
The final phase of the investigations
was scheduled by the Commission
following notification of preliminary
determinations by Commerce that
imports of cold-rolled steel flat products
from Brazil, India, Korea, and Russia
were subsidized within the meaning of
section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1671b(b)) and imports of cold-rolled
steel flat products imported from Brazil,
India, Korea, Russia, and the United
Kingdom were dumped within the
meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of
the final phase of the Commission’s
investigations 3 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 March
23, 2016 (81 FR 15559). The hearing was
held in Washington, DC, on May 24,
2016, and all persons who requested the
opportunity were permitted to appear in
person or by counsel.
The Commission made these
determinations pursuant to sections
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It
completed and filed its determinations
in these investigations on September 12,
2016. The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 4637
(September 2016), entitled Cold-Rolled
Steel Flat Products from Brazil, India,
Korea, Russia, and the United Kingdom:
Investigation Nos. 701–TA–540 and
542–544 and 731–TA–1283, 1285, 1287,
and 1289–1290 (Final).
By order of the Commission.

3 The Commission also scheduled a final-phase
countervailing duty investigation concerning coldrolled flat products from Korea, although Commerce
preliminarily determined that de minimis
countervailable subsidies were being provided to
producers/exporters of certain cold-rolled steel flat
products from Korea.

This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Securing Financial Obligations Under
the Longshore and Harbor Workers’
Compensation Act (LHWCA) and its
Extensions information collection. The
LHWCA requires a covered employer to
secure the payment of compensation
under the Act and its extensions by
purchasing insurance from a carrier
authorized by the Secretary of Labor to
write insurance under the LHWCA, or
by becoming an authorized self-insured
employer. Each authorized insurance
carrier or carrier seeking authorization
is required to establish annually that its
LHWCA obligations are fully secured
through an applicable state guaranty or
analogous fund, a deposit of security
with the Division of Longshore and
Harbor Workers’ Compensation
(DLHWC), or a combination of both.
Similarly, each authorized self-insurer
or employer seeking authorization is
required fully to secure its LHWCA
obligations by depositing security with
the DLHWC. These requirements are
designed to assure the prompt and
continued payment of compensation
and other benefits by the responsible
carrier or self-insurer to injured workers
and their survivors. Forms associated
with this information collection [Forms
LS–275 IC, Agreement and Undertaking
(Insurance Carrier); LS–275 SI,
Agreement and Undertaking (SelfInsured Employer); and LS–276,
Application for Security Deposit
Determination] obtain information used
to determine appropriate security
deposit amounts and to insure
compliance with the security deposit
requirements. LHWCA section 32
authorizes this information collection.
See 33 U.S.C. 932.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1240–0005.

practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
