INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-681 and 731-TA-1591 (Preliminary)]


White Grape Juice Concentrate From Argentina

Determinations

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission 
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the 
Act''), that there is a reasonable indication that an industry in the 
United States is materially injured by reason of imports of white grape 
juice concentrate (``WGJC'') from Argentina, provided for in subheading 
2009.69.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that 
are alleged to be sold in the United States at less than fair value 
(``LTFV'') and to be subsidized by the government of Argentina.\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\ 87 FR 24934 and 87 FR 24934 (April 27, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commencement of Final Phase Investigations

    Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the 
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of 
its investigations. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of 
scheduling, which will be published in the Federal Register as provided 
in Sec.  207.21 of the Commission's rules, upon notice from the U.S. 
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of affirmative preliminary 
determinations in the investigations under Sec. Sec.  703(b) or 733(b) 
of the Act, or, if the preliminary determinations are negative, upon 
notice of affirmative final determinations in those investigations 
under Sec. Sec.  705(a) or 735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed 
entries of appearance in the preliminary phase of the investigations 
need not enter a separate appearance for the final phase of the 
investigations. Industrial users, and, if the merchandise under 
investigation is sold at the retail level, representative consumer 
organizations have the right to appear as parties in Commission 
antidumping and countervailing duty investigations. The Secretary will 
prepare a public service list containing the names and addresses of all 
persons, or their representatives, who are parties to the 
investigations.

Background

    On March 31, 2022, Delano Growers Grape Products, LLC, Delano, 
California, filed petitions with the Commission and Commerce, alleging 
that an industry in the United States is materially injured or 
threatened with material injury by reason of subsidized imports of WGJC 
from Argentina and LTFV imports of WGJC from Argentina. Accordingly, 
effective March 31, 2022, the Commission instituted countervailing duty 
investigation no. 701-TA-681 and antidumping duty investigation no. 
731-TA-1591 (Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of 
a public conference 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 April 7, 2022 (87 FR 20458). The 
Commission conducted its conference on April 21, 2022. All persons who 
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.  
703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)). It 
completed and filed its determinations in these investigations on May 
16, 2022. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC 
Publication 5328 (May 2022), entitled White Grape Juice Concentrate 
from Argentina: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-681 and 731-TA-1591 
(Preliminary).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: May 16, 2022.
