Section 232 Investigation into Imports of Electrical Steel and Transformer-Related Products

SCOPE OF ASSESSMENT

The U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), Office of Technology Evaluation (OTE), is conducting a survey of the U.S. grain-oriented electrical steel (GOES) industry and related transformer parts sector. Specifically, this survey is intended for companies that import, distribute, or produce laminations for stacked cores for incorporation into transformers, stacked and wound cores for incorporation into transformers, electrical transformers, and transformer regulators markets. The survey results will be used to support an ongoing investigation on the effect of imports of GOES and select downstream GOES products on the U.S. national security initiated under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended. The principal goal of this survey is to assist the U.S. Department of Commerce in determining whether electrical steel and transformer-related products are being imported into the United States in such quantities or under such circumstances as to threaten to impair the national security. Information collected will include facilities and production data, capacity utilization, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, customers, sales and demand data, employment information, conditions of domestic and global competition, research and development, and other factors. The resulting data will provide the U.S. Department of Commerce detailed steel industry information that is otherwise not publicly available and needed to effectively conduct this Section 232 investigation.

RESPONSE TO THIS SURVEY IS REQUIRED BY LAW

A response to this survey is required by law (50 U.S.C. Sec. 4555). Failure to respond can result in a maximum fine of $10,000, imprisonment of up to one year, or both. Information furnished herewith is deemed confidential and will not be published or disclosed except in accordance with Section 705 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended (50 U.S.C. Sec. 4555). Section 705 prohibits the publication or disclosure of this information unless the President determines that its withholding is contrary to the national defense. Information will not be shared with any non-government entity, other than in aggregate form. The information will be protected pursuant to the appropriate exemptions from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), should it be the subject of a FOIA request. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
