BILLING CODE 7020-02-P INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION [Investigation Nos. 701-TA-480 and 731-TA-1188 (Final)] High Pressure Steel Cylinders From China Notice of Commission Determination To Conduct a Portion of the Hearing in Camera AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission. ACTION: Closure of a portion of a Commission hearing. SUMMARY: Upon the timely request of respondents, the Commission has determined to conduct a portion of its hearing in the above-captioned investigation scheduled for May 1, 2012, *in camera.* The remainder of the hearing will be open to the public.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael K. Haldenstein, Office of the General Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, telephone 202-205-3041. Hearing-impaired individuals are advised that information on this matter may be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD terminal on 202-205-3105. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission believes that respondents Beijing Tianhai Industry Co. Ltd. and American Fortune Company have justified the need for a closed session. In making this decision, the Commission nevertheless reaffirms its belief that whenever possible its business should be conducted in public.
The hearing will include the usual public presentations by petitioner and by respondents, with questions from the Commission. In addition, the hearing will include a 10-minute *in camera* session for a confidential presentation by respondents. Each session will be followed by an *in camera* rebuttal presentation by petitioner and questions from the Commission relating to the BPI. During the *in camera* session the room will be cleared of all persons except those who have been granted access to BPI under a Commission administrative protective order
(APO)and are included on the Commission's APO service list in this investigation. See 19 CFR 201.35(b). The time for the parties' presentations and rebuttals in the *in camera* session will be taken from their respective overall allotments for the hearing. All persons planning to attend the *in camera* portions of the hearing should be prepared to present proper identification. Authority: The General Counsel has certified, pursuant to Commission Rule 201.39 (19 CFR 201.39) that, in his opinion, a portion of the Commission's hearing in High Pressure Steel Cylinders from China, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-480 and 731-TA-1188 (Final), may be closed to the public to prevent the disclosure of BPI. See also Commission rules 207.24(d), 201.13(m) and 201.36(b)(4) (19 CFR 207.24(d), 201.13(m) and 201.36(b)(4)). Issued: May 2, 2012. By order of the Commission. James R.
