SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective April 15, 2022, the Commission 
established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of 
its countervailing and antidumping duty investigations on sodium 
nitrite from India and Russia (87 FR 23567, April 20, 2022), following 
a preliminary determination by the U.S. Department of Commerce 
(``Commerce'') that imports of sodium nitrite from Russia were being 
subsidized by the government of Russia (87 FR 22504, April 15, 2022). 
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 on April 20, 2022 (87 
FR 23567). In light of the restrictions on access to the Commission 
building due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Commission conducted its 
hearing through video conference on June 21, 2022. All persons who 
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
    Commerce issued a final affirmative countervailing duty 
determination with respect to sodium nitrite from Russia (87 FR 38375, 
June 28, 2022). The Commission subsequently issued its final 
determination that an industry in the United States was materially 
injured by reason of imports of sodium nitrite from Russia provided for 
in subheading 2834.10.10 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 
United States (``HTSUS'') that have been found by Commerce to be 
subsidized by the government of Russia (87 FR 51141, August 19, 2022).
    Commerce issued a final affirmative antidumping duty determination 
with respect to imports of sodium nitrite from Russia (87 FR 55781, 
September 12, 2022). The Commission

subsequently issued its final determination that an industry in the 
United States was materially injured by reason of imports of sodium 
nitrite from Russia provided for in subheading 2834.10.10 of the HTSUS 
that have been found by Commerce to be sold in the United States at 
less than fair value (87 FR 66323, November 3, 2022).
    Commerce issued final affirmative countervailing and antidumping 
duty determinations with respect to imports of sodium nitrite from 
India (88 FR 1042, January 6, 2023; and 88 FR 1052, January 6, 2023). 
Accordingly, the Commission currently is issuing a supplemental 
schedule for its countervailing and antidumping duty investigations on 
imports of sodium nitrite from India.
    This supplemental schedule is as follows: the deadline for filing 
supplemental party comments on Commerce's final countervailing and 
antidumping duty determinations is Wednesday, January 18, 2023. 
Supplemental party comments may address only Commerce's final 
countervailing and antidumping duty determinations regarding imports of 
sodium nitrite from India. These supplemental final comments may not 
contain new factual information and may not exceed five (5) pages in 
length. The supplemental staff report in the final phase of the current 
investigations will be placed in the nonpublic record on Wednesday, 
February 1, 2023, and a public version will be issued thereafter.
    For further information concerning these investigations see the 
Commission's notice cited above and the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part 
207, subparts A and C (19 CFR part 207).
    Additional written submissions to the Commission, including 
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, shall 
not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such 
submissions, or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request 
by a Commissioner or Commission staff.
    In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission's 
rules, each document filed by a party to the investigations must be 
served on all other parties to the investigations (as identified by 
either the public or BPI service list), and a certificate of service 
must be timely filed. The Secretary will not accept a document for 
filing without a certificate of service.
    Please note the Secretary's Office will accept only electronic 
filings during this time. Filings must be made through the Commission's 
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>.) 
No in-person paper-based filings or paper copies of any electronic 
filings will be accepted until further notice.
    Authority: These investigations are being conducted under authority 
of title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published 
pursuant to section 207.21 of the Commission's rules.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: January 13, 2023.
