Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective April 27, 
2023, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by American Brass Rod Fair Trade Coalition, Washington, 
District of Columbia; Mueller Brass Co., Port Huron, Michigan; and 
Wieland Chase LLC, Montpelier, Ohio. The Commission scheduled the final 
phase of the investigations following notification of a preliminary 
determination by Commerce that imports of brass rod from India were 
subsidized within the meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1671b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of the 
Commission's investigations 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 of October 5, 2023 (88 FR 6922). The 
Commission conducted its hearing on December 12, 2023. All persons who 
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
    The investigation schedules became staggered when Commerce did not 
align its countervailing duty investigation with its antidumping duty 
investigation regarding India, and reached an earlier final 
countervailing duty determination. On February 1, 2024, the Commission 
issued a final affirmative determination in its countervailing duty 
investigation of brass rod from India (89 FR 8440, February 7, 2024). 
Following notification of final determinations by Commerce that imports 
of brass rod from Brazil, India, Mexico, South Africa, and South Korea 
were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 735(a) of the Act 
(19 U.S.C. 1673d(a)) and imports of brass rod from South Korea were 
being subsidized by the government of South Korea within the meaning of 
section 705(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(a)), notice of the 
supplemental scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's 
antidumping duty investigations regarding brass rod from Brazil, India, 
Mexico, South Africa, and South Korea and countervailing duty 
investigation regarding brass rod from South Korea 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 May 1, 2024 (89 FR 35236).
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec.  705(b) 
and Sec.  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 June 5, 2024. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5513 (June 2024), entitled Brass Rod 
from Brazil, India, Mexico, South Africa, and South Korea:
