subheadings 4819.30.00 and 4819.40.00 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\

Background
The Commission instituted this investigation effective May 31,
2023, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and
Commerce by the Coalition for Fair Trade in Shopping Bags, a coalition
whose members include Novolex Holdings, LLC, Charlotte, North Carolina,
and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing,
Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Commission scheduled the final phase of
the investigation following notification of a preliminary determination
by Commerce that imports of paper shopping bags from Turkey were being
sold at LTFV within the meaning of Sec. 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of the
Commission's investigation 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 18, 2024 (89 FR 3424). The Commission conducted its hearing on
March 14, 2024.
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 May 2, 2024. The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 5504 (May 2024), entitled Paper Shopping
Bags from Turkey: Inv. No. 731-TA-1626 (Final).
By order of the Commission.
