Determinations
On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject

United States is materially injured by reason of imports of glass wine
bottles from Chile, China, and Mexico, provided for in subheading
7010.90.50 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 imports of the subject merchandise from
[[Page 12381]]
China that are alleged to be subsidized by the government of China.\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)).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. Any other party may file an entry of appearance for the
final phase of the investigations after publication of the final phase
notice of scheduling. 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. As provided in section 207.20 of the Commission's
rules, the Director of the Office of Investigations will circulate
draft questionnaires for the final phase of the investigations to
parties to the investigations, placing copies on the Commission's
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>),
for comment.
Background
On December 29, 2023, the U.S. Glass Producers Coalition, which is
comprised of Ardagh Glass Inc., Indianapolis, Indiana and the United
Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied
Industrial and Service Workers International Union, Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania 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
glass wine bottles from China and LTFV imports of glass wine bottles
from Chile, China, and Mexico. Accordingly, effective December 29,
2023, the Commission instituted countervailing duty investigation No.
701-TA-703 and antidumping duty investigation Nos. 731-TA-1661-1663
(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 January 5, 2024 89 FR 809). The
Commission conducted its conference on January 19, 2024. 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
February 12, 2024. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 5496 (February 2024), entitled Glass Wine Bottles from
Chile, China, and Mexico: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-703 and 731-TA-
1661-1663 (Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: February 12, 2024.
