steel concrete reinforcing bar (“rebar”) from Algeria, provided for in subheadings 7213.10.00, 7214.20.00, and 7228.30.80
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that have been found by the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Commerce”)
to be sold in the United States at less than fair value (“LTFV”). (2)

Background

The Commission instituted this investigation effective June 4, 2025, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission
and Commerce by Rebar Trade Action Coalition, Washington, DC. The Commission scheduled the final phase of the investigation
following notification of a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of rebar from Algeria were being sold at LTFV
within the meaning of § 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase 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

Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the
Federal Register
of December 30, 2025 (90 FR 61166). The Commission conducted its hearing on March 3, 2026. All persons who requested the opportunity
were permitted to participate.

The Commission made this determination pursuant to § 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determination
in this investigation on April 17, 2026. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 5725 (April 2026),
