The Commission scheduled the final phase of the investigations following notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of emulsion styrene-butadiene rubber from Brazil, Korea, Mexico, and Poland were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)).
