Determination
On the basis of the record 1 developed in the subject
investigation, the United States International Trade Commission
determines,2 pursuant to section 735(b) of the Tariff Act of
1930 (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)) (the Act), that an industry in the United
States is materially injured by reason of imports from Japan of
engineered process gas turbo-compressor systems, whether assembled or
unassembled, and whether complete or incomplete, that have been found
by the Department of Commerce to be sold in the United States at less
than fair value (LTFV). The subject imports are provided for in
subheadings 8414.80.20, 8414.90.40, 8419.60.50, 8406.81.10, 8406.82.10,

8501.53.80, and 9032.89.60 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States.

The Commission instituted this investigation effective May 8, 1996,
following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and the
Department of Commerce by Dresser-Rand Company, Corning, NY. The final
phase of the investigation was scheduled by the Commission following
notification of a preliminary determination by the Department of
Commerce that imports of engineered process gas turbo-compressor
systems, whether assembled or unassembled, and whether complete or
incomplete, from Japan were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of
section 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the
scheduling of the Commission's investigation 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 December 26, 1996 (61 FR 68053). The hearing was held in
Washington, DC, on April 24, 1997, 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
