Background
On November 30, 1994, a petition was filed with the Commission and
the Department of Commerce by American MicroTrace Corporation, Virginia
Beach, VA, alleging that an industry in the United States is materially
injured and threatened with material injury by reason of LTFV imports
of manganese sulfate from China. Accordingly, effective November 30,
1994, the Commission instituted antidumping investigation No. 731-TA-
725 (Preliminary).
Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigation 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 December 8, 1994. (59 F.R. 63379).
The conference was held in Washington, DC, on December 21, 1994, and
all persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in
person or by counsel.
The Commission transmitted its determination in this investigation
to the Secretary of Commerce on January 17, 1995. The views of the
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 2848 (January 1995),
entitled ``Manganese Sulfate from the People's Republic of China:
Investigation No. 731-TA-725 (Preliminary).''
Issued: January 18, 1995.
By order of the Commission.
Donna R. Koehnke,
Secretary.
