INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation No. 731-TA-1537 (Final)]
Chassis and Subassemblies From China
Determination
On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject
investigation, the United States International Trade Commission
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the
Act''), that an industry in the United States is materially injured by
reason of imports of chassis and subassemblies (``chassis'') from
China, provided for in subheadings 8716.39.00 and 8716.90.50 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\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The record is defined in Sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
\2\ 86 FR 26694 (May 17, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Background
The Commission instituted the investigations effective July 30,
2020, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and
Commerce by the Coalition of American Chassis Manufacturers, consisting
of Cheetah Chassis Corporation, Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, Hercules
Enterprises, LLC, Hillsborough, New Jersey, Pitts Enterprises, Inc.,
Pittsview, Alabama, Pratt Industries, Inc., Bridgman, Michigan, and
Stoughton Trailers, LLC, Stoughton, Wisconsin. The Commission scheduled
the final phase of the investigations following notification of a
preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of chassis from
China were being subsidized within the meaning of section 703(b) of the
Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase
of the Commission's investigations 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
January 14, 2021 (86 FR 3193). In light of the restrictions on access
to the Commission building due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Commission
conducted its hearing through written testimony and video conference on
March 16, 2021. All persons who requested the opportunity were
permitted to participate.
The investigation schedules became staggered when Commerce did not
align its countervailing duty investigation with its antidumping duty
investigation. On May 3, 2021, the Commission issued a final
affirmative determination in its countervailing duty investigation of
chassis from China (86 FR 24665, May 7, 2021). Following notification
of a final determination by Commerce that imports of chassis from China
were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 735(a) of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 1673d(a)), notice of the supplemental scheduling of the
final phase of the Commission's antidumping duty investigation 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 on May 28, 2021 (86 FR 28893).
The Commission made this determination pursuant to Sec. 735(b) of
the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determination
in this investigation on July 1, 2021. The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 5211 (July 2021), entitled Chassis and
Subassemblies from China: Investigation No. 731-TA-1537 (Final).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: July 2, 2021.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
