threaded rod from the PRC, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Act and 19 CFR

a domestic like product in the United
States.
We received a complete substantive
response from the domestic interested
parties within the 30-day deadline

25 percent of their total length. A
variety of finishes or coatings, such as
plain oil finish as a temporary rust
protectant, zinc coating (i.e., galvanized,
whether by electroplating or hotdipping), paint, and other similar
finishes and coatings, may be applied to
the merchandise.
Included in the scope of the Order are
steel threaded rod, bar, or studs, in

• Energy Equipment and Services,
such as: Power generation (including
renewable energy); transmission and
distribution, energy efficiency, oil and
gas exploration and production and
project development.
• Transportation Infrastructure and
Equipment, such as: Road, bridge and
dam construction and reconstruction;
automatic fare collection systems, new
and refurbished railroad locomotives,
new bulk car and other dedicated
rolling freight fleets, smart signaling and
rail operation automation, rolling stock
depot design, strategic route design and

Crop production equipment and
machinery, irrigation equipment and
technology, crop storage and handling,
precision farming technologies and
fertilizers.
• Medical Technologies, such as:
Diagnostic imaging equipment,
laboratory equipment, patient aids,
innovative minimally invasive devices
and dental and optometry equipment.
Although focused on the sectors
above, the mission also will consider
participation from companies in other
appropriate sectors as space permits.
The mission will go to Johannesburg,
South Africa and Maputo, Mozambique.
In addition, there will be an optional
stop in Nairobi, Kenya before the
Johannesburg stop.
Led by a senior executive of the

mission will include one-on-one
business appointments with prescreened potential buyers, agents,
distributors and joint venture partners;
meetings with national and regional
government officials, chambers of

networking receptions. The mission will
help participating firms and trade
associations gain market insights, make
industry contacts, solidify business
strategies, and advance specific projects,
with the goal of increasing U.S. exports
to Kenya, South Africa and
Mozambique. Participating in this
official U.S. industry delegation, rather
than traveling on their own, will
enhance delegates’ abilities to secure
meetings in these markets.
