INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-683 and 731-TA-1594-1596 (Preliminary)]
Paper File Folders From China, India, and Vietnam
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 paper file
folders from China, India, and Vietnam provided for in subheading
4820.30.00 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 India.\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 67441 and 87 FR 67447, November 8, 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)
[[Page 74168]]
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 October 12, 2022, the Coalition of Domestic Folder
Manufacturers, Hastings, Minnesota and Naperville, Illinois 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 paper file folders from India
and LTFV imports of paper file folders from China, India, and Vietnam.
Accordingly, effective October 12, 2022, the Commission instituted
countervailing duty investigation No. 701-TA-683 and antidumping duty
investigation Nos. 731-TA-1594-1596 (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 October 19, 2022 (87 FR 63526). The
Commission conducted its conference on November 2, 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
November 28, 2022. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 5389 (December 2022), entitled Paper File Folders from
China, India, and Vietnam: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-683 and 731-TA-
1594-1596 (Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: November 28, 2022.
