Background

    The Commission instituted this investigation effective February 20, 
2001, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Harvard Folding Box Company, Inc., Lynn, MA, and Field 
Container Company, L.P., Elk Grove, IL. The final phase of the 
investigation was scheduled by the Commission following notification of 
a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of folding gift 
boxes from China 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 
August 30, 2001 (66 FR 45864). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, 
on November 15, 2001, 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 December 21, 2001. The views of the 
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 3480 (December 2001), 
entitled Folding Gift Boxes from China: Investigation No. 731-TA-921 
(Final).
