welded carbon-quality steel pipe from Oman, Pakistan, the United Arab 
Emirates, and Vietnam, provided for in subheadings 7306.19.10, 
7306.19.51, 7306.30.10, 7306.30.50, 7306.50.10, and 7306.50.50 of the 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that are allegedly 
sold in the United States at less than fair value (``LTFV''), and that 
are allegedly subsidized by the government of Pakistan.

Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).

division of JMC Steel Group (Chicago, Illinois); and Western Tube and

and Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United States is 
materially injured and threatened with material injury by reason of 
imports of circular welded carbon-quality steel pipe from Oman, 
Pakistan, the Philippines, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam, that 
are alleged to be sold in the United States at LTFV and alleged to be 
subsidized by the government of Pakistan. Accordingly, effective 
October 28, 2015, the Commission, pursuant to sections 703(a) and 
733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)),

antidumping duty investigation Nos. 731-TA-1299-1303 (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 November 3, 2015 (80 FR 67790). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on November 18, 2015, 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 Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 
1673b(a)). It completed and filed its determinations in these 
investigations on December 14, 2015. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 4586 (December 2015), entitled Circular 
Welded Carbon-Quality Steel Pipe from Oman, Pakistan, the Philippines, 
the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-549
